Advertised as Nailhead Trimmed drapes, upon consideration, these really can't possibly be decorative nailheads attached to fabric drapes. More likely, they are all dressed up for a sophisticated, yet edgey way with shiny metal studs like bikers use to trim their leather garb. Here's a source for all sorts of studs that could be-dazzle your decor.
Studs and much more available at Studs and Spikes.
A bag of 50 runs approximately $5.00. All you need to Be Dazzle Your Drapes is to measure and mark the edges of your plain old drapes and attach the studs. For a visual demo of accurate stud setting, check out this YouTube stud demo.
Other than a few Bags O' Studs, the only tool you'll need is a pair of needle nosed pliers and alot of patience.

Tom-take a close look at the edge of the drapes and you'll see the studs. It's only meant to inspire you to diy your own studded drapes. Some people may have thought West Elm really used decorative nailheads, as used in upholstery. Thanks for your comment.

Ok, I can't see any pictures of the final result. I what way does this
"article" qualify as anything else than just another ad for drapes and
studs?
