Window treatment ideas needed
Hi. We are in the midst of a renovation which included putting down new floors and painting. This is our family room.
We will put our existing furniture back in this room.
However, the room looks so much brighter now (hard to see in the photo) that we have fresh paint and our old window treatments were taken off.
I don't want to put our old dark window treatments back up.
In fact, I would LOVE to leave the windows bare, however my husband prefers the ability to have some privacy.
I am considering putting only a valance high over the window, but that doesn't afford him the privacy he would like.
What are your suggestions? Would putting drapes in (installed on bars higher up) make the room feel heavy again?

PRO9 years agoHi oceanedge73,
Light filtering Roller Shades would be a good option to keep a good amount of light flowing into the room while providing some privacy for you as well.

If you like the idea of a decorative cornice, we could mount the shade under it so when you lift shade up it will disappear under the cornice, and you could pull it down only when you needed some privacy. We would recommend a light colored light filtering material to keep the bright, airy look that you currently have without any window treatments.

PRO9 years agoI would suggest for the large bank of windows, some delicious drapery!
Using the same fabric, create individual Roman shades.
Add some bold trim on both the Roman & drapery. POW!
