Home Decorating Furniture Design Dilemma

Recommendations for window treatments

9 years ago

Any recommendations for what kind of window treatments I could use for my living room ? I have high cielings and window shapes as under ? The windows have plantation shutters .. looking for suggestions on curtains color , material , design etc .. Haven't even decided on color of the furniture for living room yet..

As much as I prefer curtains in most instances I would quite likely just keep the plantations alone.

I agree. The window itself is such a nice feature of the room. Any treatment would detract.

Can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I'd just use the shutters.

Some people leave the upper windows uncovered, as shown in the pic below. Not just like yours, of course, but if you want to add color and softness, this is one way. But,since you say, "looking for suggestions on curtains color , material , design etc ..
Haven't even decided on color of the furniture for living room yet..", I'd select your furniture and colors first, and THEN we can better advise on window treatments fabric and patterns.
