3 Designer window treatments for less
August 28, 2009 § Leave a comment
One of the most asked questions I hear when starting a project is “Can we get started on window treatments right away?” From simple shutters to glamorous draperies window treatments provide privacy, light control and sound insulation.
no. 1 Shutters
A simple painted shutter can seamlessly integrate with your walls in a subtle, elegant fashion.

no. 2
A great opportunity to accentuate a vertical elevation is to extend a treatment to the ceiling. Puddling drapes 2 – 3 inches on the floor softens the liner architecture and structure of the window.
Treatment Fabric Option 1: Pindler & Pindler (Linen Basics 2273)
Treatment Fabric Option 2: West Elm (Tonl Sheer Window Panel)
no. 3 Roman Shade + Drapery
To achieve a completely dark room, use an underlayer blackout roman shade and drapery to control light. The Roman shade in linen fabric dresses the window with tailored elegance. Layers of fabric creates depth and drama.

Choose color accordingly for your space, call or visit a store for actual samples. White, Sand and Lava would be my top choices.
