See How Window Treatments Make a Difference!

In the interior design world or at least the design world according to Terrell Dinkins, "The room is not ready until the windows are dressed."  I certainly believe you can take a simple room and transform it when you dress the foot and head or bottom and top.  I like to think of the foot or bottom of the room as the floor covering and the head or top of the room as the window dressing.

It is the window dressings, however that draws you in and captures your eye. The windows complete a naked room.


Once the custom window treatments were added to this room, it came alive.  Before I brought in the window treatments, the client was using the temporary paper shades that you find at your local Home Depot.  The temporary light filtering shades will run you around twenty bucks for a box of four.   They are great for temporary use until you decide what you want to place in your windows, but they definitely are not very eye catching.


Just imagine this window without draperies.  Yes, the walls have custom art and the chase has a nice bright throw pillow, but without the draperies, you could feel that something was missing in this corner of the room.


Soft, cream, linen fabric was selected to brighten up the dark painted walls.  Chocolate banding was selected to tie in the chocolate accents in the room

How are you dressing your windows and adding the finishing touches to your space?  I would love to hear from you and see your pictures.

Until next time,
