How Do You Paint Designs On Bamboo Curtains?
If you’re looking for a simple and inexpensive way to give a room a facelift, get creative and paint your bamboo curtains. A small pop of color on your curtains will add drama and elegance to any room. Lay out your curtains on a flat, protected surface. Draw your design or pattern onto the curtains with a dark pencil. You can draw freehand or use stencils from your local craft store, or create your own design with strips of painter’s tape. Carefully paint each section, allowing for drying time between the application of each color. Allow the curtains to dry completely and then use a thin-bladed utility knife to cut through any paint that is stuck between the bamboo slats and along the strings to ensure that the curtains will work properly. Spray the entire surface of each curtain with a clear coat varnish to protect your beautiful work. Allow your curtains to dry completely before hanging them up.
