need help with window treatments

15 years ago

I'm slowly plugging along and need help with more window treatments. Room 1 will be the arts and crafts room plus music room (for bassoon and flute). It's north facing and looks towards the driveway, mudroom entrance and garage. One window doesn't have trim on the side since a wall separates it from the bathroom (yeah - in an old 1825 house they had to squeeze in bathrooms after the fact). Also the wall is angled so the window is in the room.

I'm painting the top BM 2070-60 Lavender Mist and bottom BM 2070-50 Enchanted with white dove trim. (I have 30+ six over six windows to paint too) Any suggestions for window treatment colors? Please excuse the mess. This is also a short cut from from the stairs from the 2nd floor to the kitchen and dining room.

The 2nd room (above the 1st) will be a guest room for a few years until the "real" guest room is finished. I'm not painting the walls (too much other painting to do) - they're a brightish yellow with spattered blue, turquoise, purple, pink, green... It was my daughter's old room. The small window on the left is a usable side light to a larger window plus sidelight in the bathroom. A wall separates it from the rest of the window. Again - north facing. I still have to furnish the room - I have a wrought iron bedframe and have been scouring CL for bedside tables. I have lots of framed art packed away) Eventually this will be a toddler bedroom with a castle bed for visiting nephews. It would be great if the window treatments work for both.

I'm not afraid of color with BM 2080-20 Confederate Red for the DR, BM 2067-40 Blue Lapis in bath, BM 2166 -40 and -50 pumpkin and creamy orange for sitting room, a green (BM HC-129 Southfield Green?) for the office, BM HC-4 Hawthorne Yellow in kitchen... Thanks for all your help.
