My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Help with Curtains/Drapery

7 years ago
Okay, we need some help with our curtains. We just recently bought this house and I’m trying to figure out the curtain situation.
We were thinking of getting blackout curtains (in a gray color? Maybe with some patterns) for these windows. But I’m not sure if we should get the same curtain for the 2 windows and the sliding glass door, or do something different there?
What would you guys do? I’m so ready to do something with our windows don’t want them bare forever. Walls are standard 8’ high, and each window is a different size. These windows are in our dining room / open area. We would also get the same curtain for our living room.
