Windows Living Rooms

window covering

4 years ago

Hi looking for advice and ideas for window covering for my lounge windows.
The two on either side are very narrow. I was thinking shutter blinds but think they would block most of any light that can come through.
Any ideas and suggestions welcomed. TIA

How wide are your windows in total? this will make a difference in terms of which dressings will work. I would treat them as 1 window and start by having a pelmet across all 3.

Only problem with treating it as one window means your curtains would pretty much cover both side windows.... it would look fine but just depends if you actually need that light?

I do not see velvets and silks for a kitchen sink window sorry. There are plenty of gorgeous fabrics around with beautiful damask or geometric pattern that are striking, that could be found in a faux silk or linen. Velvet is something that I would never put in a kitchen. But it is your kitchen.

What is your budget? I am partial to blinds from Lutron that provide privacy and a view and have battery operated controls for automated operation for retrofits but they are pricy. Hunter Douglas has a fabulous selection of window coverings and then there are always options such as JC Penny's. As for color and style, I suggest you establish a budget and then investigate options in your price range, this will narrow down your search considerably.

Hello CG, you can buy some of these and try them on site. From the pictures you posted I get the feeling you have 2 colors with similar saturation both fighting for attention. It's a little too much. I would keep the green but go softer on the red (i.e rust). You can also let yourself be inspired by the grey/silver/bordeaux floral and stripe pillows to create a brand new color scheme using these colors instead. For example, a very soft gray on the walls, gray carpet, grey/bordeaux combo in the curtains and for the sofa accents, pillows similar to these 2. It's decision time. Go for what speaks to you, but do it with elegance :-)

This is the kind of pelmet I meant, nothing frilly or too fancy. Just nice and neat. To tie the 3 together.

There appears to be plenty of stack back so shouldn't cover too much if curtains were a consideration. Depending on the width a Roman maybe an option.
