So What Did We Do??

1. We used excellent an excellent quality polyester material, made to look like silk. Backed with a cotton privacy  lining to keep the direct sunlight out during the day, and give privacy at night.

2. We ordered curtains in a neutral taupe colour with a warm golden undertone that has the very same colouring to the wall paint.  The monochromatic look makes a room feel larger...your eye travels with ease around the room.

3. The drapes puddle on the floor slightly. This gives the room a more elegant feel.

4. The drapery rod for the bay window is a system that is 3 seperate rods that are connected at the corners with the swivel hardware, making it appear as one full piece. This is an excellent system for bay windows--it comes in various finishes, and you may choose your own finials.

Let me help you beautify your space!

Thanks for your comments, Danielle, Marci, and Tanya!

I suppose it depends on what type of look you're going for when you are considering curtains. However, most peoples taste's these days are TRANSITIONAL (between traditional and contemporary)...and this definately looks great in a transitional space.
