Why We’re Sew Into 'Ballerina': Its candy stripes that script a simple elegance with their symmetrical lines - all neat, slim and perfectly aligned Its soft gray and white palette that borrows the understated beauty of river stones Its fade-resistant base which allows colors to live long, untouched by the elements HomeSewn Wisdom: Add to Scandinavian decor: Ring in Scandinavian 'hygge' with the serene personality and lived-in texture of Ballerina gray striped curtains. Their muted tones soften daylight, ground the space with a sky-like calm, and bring homespun charm. Pair them with white oak floors, woolen throws, and matte black accents, curating elegance with understated tones and minimal details, in true Nordic style. Add to low ceiling rooms: Use these striped curtains to optically elongate low-ceiling rooms with their linear movement. Place the drapery pole close to the ceiling and let the drapes graze the floor, so their sweeping vertical coverage, together with the upward momentum of the pattern, woos the eye towards the ceiling, and makes the room appear taller. Consider roman shades: If you’re dressing a small window or a compact room, try roman shades in Ballerina as a sleek and stylish alternative to curtains. They will offer you the same designer appeal as drapes without commanding any more space than the window itself. Order swatches: Screens may lie; swatches don’t. For the most accurate representation of color, pattern and texture, order a sample of the Ballerina fabric before placing your window treatments order. This will allow you to experience the fabric in your own lighting and setting, so you can commit to it with confidence. Coordinate with accessories: For a cohesive bespoke look, coordinate your curtains with other textile accessories in the room. Order matching cushions, bed runners, table covers, etc. from us or buy Ballerina fabric by the yard to create something uniquely yours. The Nitty-Gritty (Made Pretty): Prices are per panel, not per pair because sometimes all you need is a solo act on a narrow attic window. No forcing you to spend on two where one will do. Hardware is not included with our drapes, so please be prepared with poles, rings and other pretty little things. Each drapery panel at Sewn is handcrafted by skilled artisans from India who pour care, precision and decades of experience into every stitch.
