Elizabeth sees your vision for wanting to show off the trim around the windows, and an important thing to remember is that every room doesn\\u2019t have to be the same. For curtains, something not too heavy with a thin metal rod would be read. It\\u2019s also really pretty to paint the trim color, and you can pick one of the nice colors in the wallpaper and accent both the trim and the ceiling with it. For the ceiling, Elizabeth recommends a hint of gray, blue, pink, or something light and beautiful.\\nWe like the wallpaper and the color options that it gives you, and you are lucky to have some good choices! Keep us updated, and thanks again for writing in.'
