I am looking for pretty much the same thing. I have ordered mosquito net panels, to put over the third closet on my bedroom, where my makeup table lives. So far nothing, perhaps someone will have a great idea.

panels with a rod straight across the top.

Since my panels will be very light weight, what about using the removable 3M hooks with something pretty like shells, buttons, or whatever matches the room
glued to the hook?

I am thinking about dragonflies!
There was a thread on this forum awhile back that referenced hanging curtains from knobs, but nothing that looked small or dainty.

Is it me, or do I detect a bit of chill, when I ask for help in this forum? I do not have the money or desire to shop PB or that ilk. Could it be, they should have a forum for those trying to decorate cheaply, but would still like some input on what looks good ?

Pretty dragonflies Maid, that sounds lovely. I don't know if it is a chill but certainly less imput if you are asking a question that isn't typical.

Thank you for posting, gmp3, I was hoping someone might have a better idea, or as you did give me some positive feedback.

Thanks,

Erie, do you have a pic of the window as it is now? Who is the bedroom for and what else is in there. If it is a little girl's room you might do something different than a man's room, modern different than traditional etc.

Thanks everyone and Maid....I will try to post a picture
later today. Just put an elderly Aunt in a nursing home
yesterday so been busy.
Maid....my questions are usually unusual so maybe that's
why I feel as you do. I do like the idea of those 3M
hooks. See, we all have ideas it's just getting them
out there.

Here is a picture of the window. The bedroom is for a woman.

Is the furniture to the left of the window staying in that spot? It appears to overlap the window a bit which would make a symetrical arrangement difficult.

Eriepatch--I tend to agree with srg's suggestion to put a straight rod up (and I prefer all the way to above the top of the arch, though it's also common to put the rod in the space between the arch and the rectangular window below.)
It would also help if we could see the whole wall to get an idea of the space you have available (as gmp pointed out). I know that there are many ways to address a palladian window like yours, so I googled it and thought perhaps you might find some ideas in the images in the link for that. Good luck in your new home!

Maid o cliff-- I've found that most on here embrace the idea of decorating within your budget, whatever that may be, and finding creative ways to do that. I've used decorative hooks for hanging panels in the past, and the dragonflies sound like they could look really pretty with lightweight panels. If you don't get as much response as you'd like to your situation, you might try posting your own question and pictures in a separate thread. Good luck on your project as well!

FWIW, I've seen plenty of help given here to people that are working on a shoestring budget. But Maid, you are sort of hijacking Erie's thread with that question!

Erie, if there will be furniture in front of the window, that will make a difference. But with or without the furniture, I would not replicate the hook/half panel treatment.

Cindyloo123, I guess I have been properly chastised, and while Erie did not seem to mind you obviously do! My sincere apologies to all involved.

No Maid I didn't mind, and as if I haven't had enough to deal with putting my aunt in a nursing home this week, my hard drive crashed on my computer. Ugh
Had some things backed up but since we moved I've been negligent in doing so. Less than 3 yr old computer so everyone start backing up as you never know when it will happen :(
Bought a new hard drive but it takes forever
to reinstall everything. 100+ windows updates alone.

Anyway, back to the topic at hand, I've decided to go with
a rod across the top of the window and below the arch and
put sheers.
Hope you have made a decision too maid.
Thanks for everyone's help
Erie

I like the look of this:

Maybe a window film in the top portion if light is a problem.
I just really like to see all the curved wood detail that is in the top portion.

forboystoo, that is a great window. I will keep my
sheers pulled back too because my dog likes to look
out of the window :)

I have been looking for sheer ideas for a cathedral window also. I found these items on the web. Sounds like number 17 and 24 fit your description.

Erie, so sorry about your aunt and computer, when it rains it pours! My refrigerator decided to go to the "great refrigerator burial grounds in the sky" LOL So I have not had much time to make any decisions!
I think what you chose will be beautiful, and hope life will be calmer for you!
Thanks for the update.
