Add Detail With Trim

In the living room, Sally applied patterned tape trim to solid white curtain panels for an easy custom look. The geometric trim ties in with other graphic elements in the room, including her classical Greek key throw pillows and the crisp white piping on her navy sofa. “Navy really is a neutral,” she says. “The white adds great contrast.”
