On the hunt for that perfect project to complete over the weekend, you sift with purpose to find a DIY that couldn\u2019t possibly result in failure. The results can fall one of two ways, with a 50\/50 shot at success. It\u2019s the risk we all take when venturing into DIY, diving into creating something without building a skill prior to attempting. I\u2019ve had my share of Pinterest Fails. It just looks so easy to get the carefully styled results in a glossy finish. The appeal is enough to make us believe it will be flawlessly easy with perfect execution, but the reality is much different. With that said, let\u2019s talk <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/homemade-roman-shades\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DIY Roman Shades<\/span><\/a>. I have already <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/exhibitions\/make-romans-mini-blinds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in another blog covered how to make romans from scratch<\/a>, but what to do about the tired shades hanging in your window that you&#8217;re considering tossing? Let\u2019s try to give those shades new life and if it results in failure at least you can say you tried to save them. Here are a few ways to revive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/roman-shades\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">roman shades<\/a> and take them from drab to fab.<\/p>\n<h4>Tie Dye It<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/TieDye1.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Pinterest, Odomah\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" data-first-enter-image=\"true\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/fa\/d0\/08\/fad0089568f0e47f4bed78c11ac67051.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Pinterest<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/odomah.org\/1073190092658968616\/idei-dizajna-shtor-na-kuhne\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Odomah<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Shibori is a Japanese dyeing technique that typically involves folding, twisting or bunching cloth and binding it, then dyeing it in an indigo bath. This technique is the base which common day tie dye was born. It has experienced a resurgence in interest over the past handful of years and is a timeless way to add an eclectic look to the home. This style of dying can be applied to other colors outside of indigo so if you want multihued tie dye, go for it! No judgment. Keep in mind the technique will be different and instead of giving your fabric a full bath, you will want to utilize a spray bottle with hot water and dye to layer the color on.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/TieDie2.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Lamp\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/lamp.im\/sibori-drevnee-yaponskoe-iskusstvo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Lamp<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Tie-dyeing a roman shade can be a bit difficult due to the bulk of fabric so I highly recommend testing the containers for your dye bath prior to filling them to make sure your shade will fit and can be submerged to dye. <a href=\"https:\/\/honestlywtf.com\/diy\/shibori-diy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">There is an excellent tutorial on shibori dyeing here to get you started<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Stencil It<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Stencil.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Space Plus\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/spaceplus.vn\/uploads\/details\/1322174283---man_cua_4.JPG\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Space Plus<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Out of all the ways to modify an existing shade, I find stenciling to be the most widely accessible next to iron-on decals. The variety of options available online makes finding the style you are seeking a breeze; just click til your heart&#8217;s content. A stencil creates an interesting pattern and provides much more control and precision than freehand or tie dye. You can use one color for a clean, modern look or layer the colors on creating a palette to define your space or add a pop of interest. I have a few tips to guide you along and make stenciling a manageable task.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11325\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11325\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11325 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Stencil2.jpg\" alt=\"Padronagens\" width=\"600\" height=\"530\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11325\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sources: <a href=\"https:\/\/padronagens.wordpress.com\/2010\/11\/04\/estamparia-artesanal-estencil-2%C2%AA-parte\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Padronagens<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<blockquote style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"color: #3e3e3e; font-size: 17px;\">1. I recommend sourcing a stencil from a reputable brand to ensure clean cuts and a sturdy work surface. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.royaldesignstudio.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Royal Design Studio has a wide selection of styles to choose<\/a> from as well as the materials needed to complete your project.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #3e3e3e; font-size: 17px;\">2. Make sure you practice, practice, practice. I don\u2019t think I can stress this step enough. Grab a couple of oversized pieces of cardboard and do at least one test run. Remember that you get one shot at stenciling on the actual shade and although you may feel confident to just jump in, trust me and learn from my mistakes. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #3e3e3e; font-size: 17px;\">3. Paint options are pretty limitless for this kind of project considering that you can use house paint, and even spray paint, if you like. Interior paint will offer the broadest collection of colors but is not fabric fast so if you plan on washing your shade in the future, I would recommend fabric paint.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4>Revamp It<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Pidge.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Pidgeon English\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pidgeonenglish.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Pidgeon English<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>You\u2019ve had it with your existing shade and there is just no saving it by tie-dyeing or stenciling. Fret not, friend. I have just the fix for you! Cover your existing shade with new fabric using Fabri-Tac fabric glue or hem tape. These no-stitch options work wonders if you don\u2019t have a sewing machine or are feeling just too stressed for time to stitch everything before gluing it in place. Simply select your fabric, cut it about 3-4 inches wider\/taller than the existing shade and glue. Well, there are a few more steps, but it should take you less than two hours to complete one shade. The most helpful tip I can offer is to make sure to measure and iron before gluing anything down. The iron creates a clean pleat that will give a more professional look at the end.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17574 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/End1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"534\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/End1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/End1-300x267.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/End1-100x90.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Regardless if you are a novice or a seasoned DIY pro, one thing is certain and that is that DIY is not as easy as pictures portray.

A firm believer in the transformative power of nature, I bring the outside in and infuse every design with the vitality of plants. Moreover, I stand by the principle that, when it comes to design, less is more. There is beauty that lies in the elegance of minimalism and the art of negative space, where every piece tells a story and holds immense value.

Recognizing that each environment is as distinct as the individual inhabiting it, I approach my craft with a deep appreciation for the nuances that make a space truly special. A firm believer in the transformative power of nature, I bring the outside in and infuse every design with the vitality of plants. Moreover, I stand by the principle that, when it comes to design, less is more. There is beauty that lies in the elegance of minimalism and the art of negative space, where every piece tells a story and holds immense value. Oh, and as a side note, I was born and raised in Montana. Maybe that\u2019s why I naturally gravitate towards wide-open spaces and biophilic design.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Blindsgalore\/","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/blindsgalore\/","https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/blindsgalore\/","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/blindsgalore"],"url":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/author\/nikki\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17542","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17542"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17542\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17566"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17542"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17542"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17542"},{"taxonomy":"thb-sponsors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/thb-sponsors?post=17542"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
