You could do top down bottoms up shades if you need privacy and add something like this for decorative

yeah, I think I wouldn't do drapes. blinds (interior-mount) for light control (little need for privacy control here?) and don't compete with the view otherwise.

Hi laurasia79,

For your windows, we would recommend drapery with a ceiling mounted rod or track. This way you will not be obscuring the top of the window that goes to the ceiling with a rod. We have many different options for ceiling mounted drapery hardware including different finishes and styles.

You could ceiling mount a track or rod across the whole span of the window, or just two small rods or tracks for panels if you wanted decorative panels only. We can also layer drapery as well, so you could mount a track with sheer drapes close to the window, and mount another track with decorative layer in front of it.

We would be happy to help you with your project! Email us at design@theshadestore.com for more design assistance, product information, quotes, free swatches and more!
