How to Paint Stripes on Curtains

I am in the midst of changing my family room color scheme from black, red and aqua to gray, aqua and yellow. My first step after painting the walls was to tackle the windows. I knew I wanted to let in more light so I settled on bamboo shades which was a perfect solution. However, I needed curtains to soften up the lines and give us privacy when necessary. Painting plain curtain panels allows you to get the exact design and color you want. I always seem to have a hard time finding curtains that I like. I searched around looking for striped curtains. I was inspired by the Crate & Barrel Alston Panels for $99 a piece. So they were either way out of my price range or not long enough. I decided to customize some plain curtain panels from IKEA by painting gray stripes on them. They look amazing and totally changed the look of my family room.
