Bay Window Treatments

valanceover blindsBay windows can really stump us as to what to do with them. This is an example of a simple, functional, and good looking bay treatment. Two layers make up this window treatment,  wood blinds and a tailored valance. The secret to this good look is a perfect fit. Wood blinds must be measured and ordered to fit perfectly and the valance is of course a custom designed and fabricated valance.

Formal dining room

Formal dining roomStunning and fabulous describe this formal dining room!

Rich gold silk swags and jabots trimmed in luscious passementari complement the opulent wall color. The door are still operational and plenty of natural light is still entering the room. Swags and jabots frame and soften the glass without interfering with the function of the doors or the natural light.

Color

Color it’s the first thing we notice and the first thing we remember about a room. That being said ,don’t we all want the  rooms in our homes to be memorable?  None of us decorate with the intention of having boring, uninspiring, ho hum rooms. We want attractive rooms with different feelings, from restful to inspiring and from classy to man cave.

The biggest bang for your buck comes in a can of paint, it’s inexpensive compared to all the other decorating items.  Wall color is the backdrop for all the other furnishings in your room. The backdrop can either be boring or full of life, it’s up to you. Be dariing and select a bold color for your next decorating project.
