Ideas for Making Coca-Cola Theme Curtains

Vintage Coca-Cola signage can inspire your curtain theme.

They may seem like a minor detail, but with a little creativity, curtains can be the finishing touch that pulls a themed room together. Coca-Cola has grown from a concoction created by a curious Atlanta pharmacist to the world's most recognizable brand, and its memorabilia has become widely collected. Think beyond traditional window treatments for your Coca-Cola-themed room and incorporate custom themed curtains that celebrate this aspect of American history.

The No-Sew Solution

Transform Coca-Cola-themed shower curtains into durable and kid-friendly window curtains to complete the look of your family's bonus or game room. This no-sew curtain solution allows any Coca-Cola collector to create custom window treatments by modifying the curtain's height and style according to privacy concerns as well as the size and location of the window.

The Signature Piece

Create a one-of-a-kind upholstered cornice board featuring your or your family's favorite piece of Coca-Cola signage. Though cornice boards are designed to conceal drapery hardware, they can also serve as a modern, clean-line type of window treatment. Upholster a cornice board in red fabric and affix a piece of Coca-Cola memorabilia on the board for a sleek, no-fuss window treatment.

A Touch of Elegance

Flowing drapes or curtains can pull together a room while adding a touch of elegance. For an understated but sophisticated window treatment that allows your Coca-Cola memorabilia to shine, dress the room's windows with layers of red fabric and white sheers. Cover the curtain tabs or buttons with vintage bottle caps to complete this soft look.

Mosaic Memorabilia

For the collector with countless bottle caps, stickers, signage and other types of memorabilia, combine the small elements into one big statement piece. Create a custom cornice board out of medium-density fiberboard (MDF) and apply bottle caps, stickers, signage and other types of Coca-Cola memorabilia to create a mosaic window treatment unlike any other. Finish off the window with some white or soft red sheers held back by custom window ties. Use hot glue to attach empty Coca-Cola bottles to basic, store-bought window ties to finish off the window treatment. This look allows any collector to consolidate less valuable trinkets and whatnot into a bold, artistic piece.
