Need help for my transom windows

11 years ago

What drapery window treatment can I used for my transomed windows? I like to filter light with the blinds I have in place; however, the transom windows above allows too much light to come into the room. Also, I want this area to have a drapery window treatment.

You could just hang panels over the entire window. I wouldn't put any light-filtering film on the transoms because when the blinds are closed, it's nice to look out over them to see the greenery of the treetops.

Do you need privacy in the space? If not I would suggest a sheer Ripplefold drapery. You could do some stationary panels on the sides to finish the look. If privacy is needed you could used lined draperies. It's a beautiful space!
