You will find it difficult to get up in the morning when you are in this master retreat. We have fifty shades of grey here from the headboard, the pillows and shams, the duvet and coverlet, the bed frame and so on.
You will find it difficult to get up in the morning when you are in this master retreat. We have fifty shades of grey here from the headboard, the pillows and shams, the duvet and coverlet, the bed frame and so on. Pattern placement on a window valance can make or break the design. We’ve created five identical sections on this inverted pleat valance. The size of each section was determined based on the size of the flower that is centered. A contrast band was used both top and bottom of the valance giving it more definition. We’ve also hung the window treatment just under the crown to maximize the daylight and the view. Top-down-bottom-up honeycomb shades give privacy when needed.
We can do a custom shutter to fit any window, any shape, any size. With the 3 1/2″ louver there is plenty of daylight coming thru and the Invisible Tilt feature allows you to open and close the shutters with just a touch to any slat. In this instance we’ve divided the shutter into thirds allowing you to close just a portion of it when needed.
Floating stationary drapery panels – just the right touch for this den. Faux wood blinds give privacy when needed and the stationary panels hung above the transom add warmth and style to the room. Throw pillows added to the sofa add a little color to the room.
Sweet dreams will be in abundance in this master bedroom. Different hues of grey from the upholstered headboard, the euro shams, the duvet and throw, right down to the bench at the foot of the bed bring a cohesive look to this room. The off white tones from the shams and lamp shades are flanking the window We’ve also added that lovely pop of color right in the middle. Plantation shutters are the perfect answer for this small powder room. With the Invisible Tilt feature the louvers can be opened or closed by tilting any louver. We’ve split the tilt so that the bottom of the shutter can be closed for privacy all the while letting light in at the top.
Nostalgic colors, warm hues are comforting and sentimental. Welcome home and have that familiar feeling with this cozy ambiance while dining.
Clean, modern, elegant – just a few words that describe these window treatments. About 18″ of fabric band the top and bottom of each of the drapery panels giving them a pop of color and contrast. Grommets were used in an oil rubbed bronze to compliment the hardware. Classic ball finials finish the look. We added some color and pattern to this door wall. Using a watercolor print fabric, we created a pleated valance with a hint of contrast in the pleats. That same contrast was used for the drapery panels which are hung on a track and can be opened and closed when needed. Relax and reconnect in this serene setting. Keep the pleated sheer draperies open to enjoy the lake view or close them up for the privacy you need. What a way to end (or start) your day. When you have 10 foot ceilings, why not accentuate it. We custom made this shower curtain along with a custom liner to add height and elegance to this tiny bathroom. The pinch pleated drapery panel is hung on a short rod, covering about half of the tub opening allowing it to be tied back with plenty of fullness. A golden palette was used to compliment the dazzling tile. Then a custom extra long shower liner is hidden behind the decorative curtain and glides along a track mounted at the ceiling.
The use of four stationary panels help unify these three windows. All of the grommet panels are hung on a single rod making the window a focal point in the room. The bold vibrant colors are perfect against the light colored walls and ceiling. Roller shades add privacy and sun control when needed. A perfect little haven. Tailored mock roman shade valances, all in a modern paisley print fabric, add to the beautiful view in this master bedroom. Thesevalances are hung right under the crown moulding adding height to each window and keeping more of the view. Add a couple of cozy decorative pillows for just the right touch.
Add a splash of vibrant trim to your drapery panels. While the woven shades give privacy when needed, the stationary drapery panels add softness and warmth to the room along with a little whimsical fun with the kelly green trim.
Pinch pleated stationary panels, hung from the coffered ceiling on antique gold french return hardware is just what this arched window needed. A woven roller shade allows for privacy when needed, leaving the arch exposed.
Choose a monochromatic color scheme for a spa-like restful sleep. Just the right amount of pillows, from the Euros to the lumbar rolls for comfort.
We added height to this window by installing a Sheffield valance many inches above the opening. Sill length jabots frame the window and help the treatment from floating in the room. The pattern was matched at each pleat to keep the treatment from looking too busy. From rich browns to vibrant greens, this bedding is inviting and luxurious. A grand window needs a grand treatment. These blackout draperies are hung on decorative knobs that are tied back during the day and let loose for the night. Smart and elegant.
When you want to defuse the sunlight ever so slightly. The hardware for these mesh sheer draperies is hidden behind a custom crown moulding and they can easily be opened and closed using a clear baton.
There is no need for a patterned fabric here, we made our own pattern by banding some ties in a contrast color and adding a fabric covered button. This upholstered cornice board adds balance and bulk to the room topping it off perfectly.
Adding fabric to your windows gives your room a whole new look. A Sheffield valance with strategically placed jabots frame the beautiful lake views. The treatment was hung many inches above the windows so as not to take any light or view away. The pattern was carried thru each section adding to that custom look. This is an easy renovation update. A bold, modern dining room needs a bold window treatment and we didn’t disappoint. An upholstered cornice board along with stationary drapery panels fills the room. We installed it at the ceiling bringing your eye up to the beautiful woodwork. Sheer drapery panels were also added for privacy and sun control.
Are you looking for a custom headboard? This paneled headboard was made up of 36″ X 18″ upholstered panels affixed to the wall using hook and loop tape. We extended the panels beyond the sides of the bed, encompassing the side tables and lamps giving the bed it’s own space within the room. The bedroom now has a bold, modern vibe.
Custom upholstered cornices hung at the ceiling add height the 8′ room and the drapery panels help anchor it.
This themed room called for a custom cornice. The cornice was created by first upholstering it with an off-white suede fabric. Then shapes were randomly cut from a brown suede and glued onto the cornice giving it the appearance of a cowhide.
Muted tones of grays and taupes make up this guest bedroom. We have a 2.5″ faux wood blind installed inside mount just under the eyebrow arch. To add the side panels at this same height would have cut the window too short making the ceilings appear shorter as well. Here we hung the metal drapery hardware 5″ above the arch with the silk stationary drapery panels on the wall on either side of the window so as not to take away any light from the windows. Another bonus to hanging them this way is that the window now appears much wider than it really is. Cordless 2.5″ faux wood blinds control the sun and give privacy when needed with stationary drapery panels added to soften up the room. A designer metal rod with crystal finials add sparkle along with the light fixture. The many shades of gray from the bedding, walls, furniture and floor add serenity and luxury to this bedroom.
Striped fabric is ideal for a roman valance. Since the folds are horizontal they don’t interfere with the stripes. A bias cord was added along the top edge made from the same stripe but bringing out a little more detail and contrast ties finish off this treatment. A little trick of the trade – use a lock seam rod inside the bottom fold to not only help weigh it down but to keep the corners from flaring as well.
A simple little valance that uses the pattern on the fabric for the overall design with a peek-a-boo fabric looking out from the back. A little music, a little fun. Jazz it up with some swags and tails and anchor it all with some contrast side panels. With beautiful lake house views, who would want to cover up the windows? Not here, we’ve enhance the windows and the view by adding stationary panels right up beyond the top of the windows and adding a swag of color to the top. And it’s all cinched together neatly with a tassel. Not only does this treatment frame the beautiful lake view but also brings your eyes up to the second story and gives scale to the great room. A small space is unified with stationary draperies and pleated valances. The muted watercolor tones add peace and serenity. Just sit back, relax and enjoy the view. Who wouldn’t like a beautiful kitchen sink, bay window with lots of light coming in. Faux wood shades were needed for sun and light control and a curved, pleated valance was added to cover the shade headrails as well as the gap above the windows at the soffit. Roller shades have come a long way since those of your childhood when you would try to raise them and they would spin out of control. These cordless, natural woven, roller shades from Norman Window Fashions go up and down with just the touch of your hand – no springs attached. Taking our cue from the wall color, we’ve added whimsical blossoms to the window with this Kingston valance. The valance was hung more than twelve inches above the actual bay window giving the illusion of a much taller window and proportioning it to the room. We added jabots (tails) to each end to frame the window and the view as well as give it a little more formality.
Without obstructing the views of this lovely lakehouse a roman shade valance was added over the vertical blinds to cover the unsightly headrail and to add some softness to the window. There were quite a few inches to the arched window above so we filled in the gap adding height to the lower window at the same time. The same valance was used in the adjoining dining room, this time hung just above the french door for access to the deck. A watermark print was used adding more texture and interest to the valance. A small valance with a bold look. We used a large floral motif to make this pleated valance, copying the same pattern on each section with a large flower in the center of each. Grommet drapery panels hung floor to ceiling add warmth to the room keeping in line with the contemporary feel. Roman valances made from the same fabric bring continuity to the rooms. A splash of color brings it all together. Hang you window treatment up at or near the ceiling. Not only will this give you the most daylight coming in but it will also give the illusion of taller windows. This tailored balloon valance did just that.
