Thanks for all the reader contributions! I’m really glad that so many of you are finding this simple tutorial helpful.
Check out what some fellow LGN readers put together with just a little foam board, batting and fabric:
Heather at Doodlebuds made her pretty pelmet box out of blue linen fabric and added white pom-pom trim to the bottom with some pins!
Lauren used fabric from Mod Green Pod for her bedroom’s pelmet boxes…
LuAnn in Oklahoma made the pelmet box for her 4 year old daughter’s room using some soft yellow dotted chenille fabric she had laying around and some fabric leftover from a twin sheet set.
Love the orange and pink print that Rachel used in her project!
Sara at Pretty, Pleasant and Practical blogged about her pelmets here:
After Noelle tried the pelmet box tutorial, she was inspired to redo her whole bedroom! Isn’t is ADROABLE??
Kellie used this perfect ticking stripe and yellow ball trim to make two pelmets for her kitchen.
Lisa’s daughter now has a very fun and funky room. Look closely, her pelmet box is monogrammed!
Minda in San Diego used white denim for her boxes and glued black ribbon to make the accent. She used chiffon for the sheers, and the curtains are blackout lined, which Minda loves for the draping quality and for how dark she can make her room!
Felicia used this graphic Victoria Hagan fabric for the pelmets in her boys’ room. The curtain fabric was from a Silk Trading Company close out.
Clair used a punchy blue fabric with coordinating navy trim and curtain panels.
Emily got together with two of her girlfriends on a Friday night for a pelmet box making party! She said it was so much fun! Her pelmet is covered in hot pink dupioni silk, which she made for her pink and grey bedroom.
Sarah used nail head trim on her bedroom pelmets…
Banks and her friend in Atlanta used this punchy fabric for her pelmet box. She also mentioned she used the same fabric to line the inside of her old tacky 70’s china cabinet after painting it robin’s egg blue! Pretty! Send more pics, Banks!!
Ada Marie at Spark! said all she needed was 1/2 yard of P. Kaufmann’s Curly Q in Green Tea for the pelmet box over her hallway dormer. She made the box so snug that she didn’t even have to use nails — the pelmet is suspended between the two walls! She likes that it would be very easy to pull down and re-cover again later.
I love how Julie’s daughter’s room turned out! Darling! (PS she got the pair of Ghost chairs on Overstock)
Thanks again for all the contributions!

Also, I’m working on setting up a Flickr group for these images and hopefully in the future readers can keep adding to the collection. I’ll keep you posted…
Sorry it took so long to post the name of the fabric I used. I figured out that Richloom makes it and the pattern is Invigodk (?), color is Confetti. I saw that Pier 1 is making chairs with this fabric!
