Todd and I had our room painted last February right before we got our new, grown up bedroom furniture. I still haven't put up curtains in the room. I have bought a gazillion, but none of them looked right against the paint, so I've also returned a gazillion of them What I thought was a basic beige paint, is actually a little pinkish it turns out. It looks great with the dark wood of the furniture, but I'm going to have to go with just white curtains. I have the added difficulty that I have to do the two windows on one side of the wall and I also need curtains for the two closets on the opposite wall.
Do I do 4 of the same style curtain? Or 2 for the windows, and 2 different for the closets?
And, I prefer silk curtains, but have had a difficult time finding white silk curtains that I like. Here are a few ideas, I've found. Please chime in!!!

I did find these, which are the duponi silk that I love. But now I'm not sure. Do I need to switch my comforter to a more "like" material with the silk curtains being less than two feet from my bedspread? arg!!! I was going to switch the bedding anyway, but I wasn't planning on going silky. Dry clean only bedding simply isn't an option in my house. There are too many children with dirty fingers.
