DIY: Painted Shades
We found this awesome idea on BHG and thought we would share.
This is something simple and easy that you can do at home to create custom shades from the ordinary roll-up shades we find stock in so many homes.
And look at the result:

We love this idea.
If you like this look and want to avoid adding toxins from typical paint to your space, try painting your roller shades with our organic paint in pond and buzz:

BHG explains how to do it here, but it's really so simple. Just unroll your shade and lay flat. Then tape our your lines, careful to make them the same width for symmetry. Then paint! Just use a small foam roller to apply your color. Remove your tape and Voila! Let dry completely before rolling shade.
Here are some other painted shade ideas we found on Pinterest!

And finally, feel free to customize the colors to fit your space!

Choose your colors here. We suggest a quart in velvet finish - this will give your shades a durable but almost flat finish.
