Decorate like a Pro without Spending like One: Practical Concrete Tips. #4 - Textiles

I set up a series of posts full of practical concrete tips for making your space look decorated by a pro...but you can take all the credit. ;) and...you know what you are looking for...and what look you want so you go out bargain shopping and be the favorite person of your husband when you come home with money still left in your account. :)  

Tip # 4 Textiles
Play up the Textiles in your space.
curtains, pillows, rugs.. doesn't mean you have to go bold with the print but make them count!
 find something lovely or totally you!

Curtains. i love to just window shop for curtains..i don't know what it is. i don't have enough windows in my house for all the curtains that i love!! hehe.

some lovely curtains from ikea... if you don't have one close to you order online! the quality is very good.. i have them throughout my house and get comments on how great they look..so if you haven't bought from ikea before..the curtains for the most part are great.
$14.99 for two panels.

$29.99 for two panels.

Target has some great ones as well! and then you can always check out the clearance isles at your local fabric store! my mom used to drag me in those stores...and now i have to drag ben in them. :)

Be Creative in what you use..and how..
michelle from three men and a lady used X-Long sheets as curtains in her guest room to tie together with her bedding! genius!

Rugs. add some comfort or make a statement. so many to choose from!! 

Cushions. an easy way to add a pop of color or texture!

Some of my favorites from ikea..
