Adding ribbon to sheer drapery panels is an economical way to add style. The white sheer fabric is contrasted with a black grosgrain ribbon that is set in slightly from the side hems. This gives these simple drapery panels an updated look. The color contrast is classic yet modern. The panels are shirred on a brushed nickel decorative rod and finished on the ends with a beautiful glass finial.
Another economical solution is to use the same ribbon to create a tie-back for the drapery panel, which can be easily undone to let the drapery panels hang freely at the side of the window.
The black and white drapery panels are the the perfect solution for the window dressings in this contemporary room. The panels give the room a look of sophistication with an unparalleled modern finish.
