Cabinet Curtains...Ultimate in "Cottage"?

[Ellene Meece]

Have you ever had a gaping under-cabinet that lacked a door and a 'cottagey' print fabric did the trick? What about upper cabinets? The opportunity to add some color and texture seemed to just make the vintage cottage kitchen? Weigh in here on your experiences!

This is not curtain fabric but what an ingenious idea to use a cottage texture look in inexpensive shelf liner for the backs of the open cabinets!

And of course, under the farm sink...

"To shake things up, try adding a curtain to just one cabinet. "Cabinet after cabinet, door after door gets boring," says Shannon Bower, who added Carleton V's Wallace ticking in Green and Natural to this pair."House Beautiful

What do you think??

Or do a different fabric on all the cabinet doors! Check out "The Cottage Mix"...

I love how this under the cabinet fabric skirt just softens the entire room. Do you love it too?

In a small apartment or house, storage space is imperative.  Often closets are rather small and there isn't much built-in shelving.  So what's a decorista to do?  

 

Make your own storage, of course! Utilize a book shelf or cabinet already in your home. Then, hang curtains to hide the mess! To create mini curtains like the ones shown in the image above, buy an adjustable curtain rod and use curtain valances to add a pretty touch.  Curtains are ideal because they provide easy access to your items and can be dressed in whatever fabric you like.

Cottage kitchen, with its rustic beams and cheery toile curtains...both as window coverings and under the cabinet.

This cottage cabinet curtain was called Patriotic Decorating Ideas. All I know is that it is vintage and it is so cute for a vintage cottage.
