There are some fun designs out there for Roman shades. We bought some rather plain ones since we have neutral walls and I returned them. They looked like we hung sheets on the window when they were down. Especially since we had to hang them outside of the window on the wall. Pretty when up… awful down. Just look closely when they are down and maybe try one room at time…Incase you end up disappointed like me. Luckily the company refunded our money on most of them.
