Curtains for baby room

I am in the process of removing the blinds that came with the house when we bought it, and putting in curtains...I hate blinds. I started in my daughter's room, because hers seemed to be the simplest. I used Dora the Explorer fabric and made them tab top style. For right now, they are on a normal curtain rod, but I will be making a decorative curtain rod out of pvc pipe painted to match the room, whenever I get around to painting rooms



Most tab top curtains use buttons, I don't know why...but I didn't want to go through all the work of creating button holes that I wouldn't be using anyway, so I make some fake buttons that look like butterflies to match the butterfly pattern on the fabric, out of polymer clay. I used all the colors in the curtains. My 2 year old daughter is very happy with her new curtains and it darkens her room a bit so she doesn't wake at dawn anymore...yeah!!
