I am trying to help my mom find new window treatments for her home. Living in a small town, we are trying to find a few good web sites to buy well made curtains that do not cost an arm & leg.
We have tried ebay, but it was to time consumeing for what little we found to suit her needs.
One example, is that we are doing her kitchen in the red, white & chrome 50's look and then "trying" to find a way to tie in the the French Country design she wants for the rest of the house.
Any ideas or suggestions are so very greatly appreciated & valued!!!
Thank you!

I think a sophisticated plaid or check works well for both American style 50's & vintage French country:

this one had a wonderful 50's vintage feeling, it reminds of old French linens from the 40's & 50's :

this one is simple & elegant:

this one in either burgundy or neutral:

I found this wonderful website for vintage french linens, beautiful stuff, although a friend picked up some tea towels at walmart last week that were similar in design:

Try adding chickens/roosters! They are very 50s, would tie in with the red, and are still very popular in french kitchens.

Yellow pages.com can help you find some in your area.. have then come out and give a sample and a quote.. its the best thing to do! and it saves money and time so you dont have to do it yourself. I tried myself once... way to hard!
