help! find similar fabric/curtains!

Lolo555 · January 2010

I saw these curtains in the movie 500 Days of Summer and now I am obsessed. I tracked them down, but they are a discontinued item from Ikea (Hedda Lov Green). I think I'll keep checking ebay to see if they turn up, but was also wondering if you lovely ladies had any suggestions on where I might find something similar. I'd like to do a forest/nature themed nursery and this fabric seems like the perfect backdrop! TIA!

Thanks for the suggestions! I like both the IKEA possibilities, but sadly they don't ship and I live in Montana, very far from an acutal IKEA store Crying . I did find a few on ebay, but they are marked up about 50%...

Here's a few of my favorites from fabrics.com. I've got yellow walls in the nursery (and would love not to have to paint them). I'm planning on just buying crib sheets (instead of sets) and using fabric to make curtains/crib skirt. I've got some awesome nature pics I have taken in the woods here and would like to frame several for wall art. Then I'm thinking of getting a few woodsy stuffed animals, like a moose, and putting them on the shelves. With that in mind, which fabric would you suggest:

I'd check out marimekko fabrics. They seem to have a similar style (and I love anything marimekko makes I know crate and barrel has a bedding set with a similar pattern/color scheme so you may be able to find the name of that fabric on their site, but otherwise I think like 99% of their fabrics are gorgeous.

ETA: this is the C&B pattern I'm talking about, lehtimaja mist https://www.crateandbarrel.com/family.aspx?c=1624&f=31814&q=marimekko&fromLocation=Search&DIMID=400001&SearchPage=1

I like the Moda Love U one, the other prints in that collection are so cute (dots, trees, and owls). I love these little stuffed animals. So adorable!

Thanks again for all the help! The etsy fabric looks almost exactly like the Ikea curtains, impressive! Now I'm debating whether I want to stick with neutral colors and add pops of color in other ways, or to get fabric with bright colors and keep the rest of the room subdued...decisions, decisions!
