Like big cats who drape themselves lazily over the branches of jungle trees, leopard curtains can drape any room in a home with some natural beauty.
Animal prints have a way of going in and out of fashion when it comes to home decorating. However, lately it seems as though animal prints have earned a status as a classic pattern suitable for almost any era and many styles. What’s even more encouraging, leopard print curtains have the capacity to serve everywhere from a safari-themed living room to a bathroom spa.
Leap Into Decorating Fashion With Leopard Curtains
Shower curtains in animal prints have become quite fashionable of late. For example, Bedding Sets.com offered two lines of leopard print curtains for the shower. Sin in Linen’s natural leopard curtains are printed on 100 percent cotton and measure 72 inches both in width and length for just $36. An all-cotton shower curtain such as this will also need a vinyl liner to keep water in and protect the fabric. Another option from this vendor was Kimlor’s leopard shower curtain, which comes with single panel curtain and vinyl liner measuring 72 inches long and wide – a standard shower curtain measurement — for $30.
Another online vendor, BedBath Store, offered a final closeout on a Safari Beige Leopard Print Shower Curtain in 50 percent polyester and 50 percent cotton. This curtain measured 70 inches wide by 72 inches long, making it necessary to buy two to protect a really large shower or tub, as well as needing vinyl liners. However, at a final closet price of $25 each, multiple purchases were still a bargain.
Once the bathroom is well spotted, any other room in the home can take a wild turn with leopard treatments for the windows. These curtains can come in virtually any fabric, from sheer voiles to touchable, cozy plush.
Walmart offers sheer voile leopard curtains in 100 percent polyester for less than $10 a panel, again making it possible to buy several panels for multiple windows. The machine washable curtains measure 59 inches wide and 84 inches long and can be hung with standard or decorative rods.
The online vendor, BedBath Store, featured a combination of leopard window treatments in panels plus a leopard print valance. Measuring 88 inches long by 18 inches wide, the valance was on sale for less than $40, while the 42-by-87-inch drapery panels sold for less than $70. Clearly it’s possible to spot some spots for quite economical prices these days.
Another online vendor, Touch of Class, also featured lightweight window panels and a matching valance to add some flair to anyone’s lair. Made of machine washable polyester voile, the panels were on sale for $20 each while the valance was priced at $34.
Kohl’s offered a set of leopard print curtains that brings texture as well as pattern in a window treatment. In brown and multicolor, Lush Decor® Aniplush Window Treatments in leopard prints are fully lined plush fabric that provides additional insulation and utmost privacy. The combination also was on sale at $30 per drapery panel and $21 per valance.
Finally, leopard curtains have even made their way from windows to wall coverings. Home Depot offered Blue Mountain Wall Coverings’ Leopard Curtain Border for 22.98 per yard. Image an entire room topped by a wallpaper border from which leopard spots leaped out. What a combination!
