Cover up!

Windows treatments are an important part of why your home looks the way it does. Your windows treatments should compliment your home (or office) and add style to your windows. Picking out the right window treatments can be quite confusing & stressful if you don’t know what would look best on your window.

So… this is where we come in! Take this brief poll, wait & come back Friday to read up on Windows Treatments 101!!

Here is a brief outline of our guide to window treatments:

  • Establishing a style or theme.
  • Providing decorative elements.
  • Meeting practical requirements.
  • Coordinating color & contributing in a major way to the color scheme.
  • Lending pattern & texture at the window where nuances are subtle and drama is implicit.

Excited? We are! So help us out, take the poll & come back Friday for a fantastic lil’ guide to all things window treatments!

So… share! Don’t be shy! Tell us what your window treatment issues are, or show us how beautiful yours look! Do tell…

    I’m glad to see this post! I have two troublesome window treatment areas. The first is above the window above the kitchen sink. It’s a tricky area because on one side the cabinet sits flush with the window and on the other there is about 1″ of wall showing before the cabinet starts. What to do? What to do? My other area of concern is the sliding glass doors that lead from the kitchen to the back yard. Right now, I have some boring vertical blinds. I would love to see something more stylish, but again the surrounding space is a concern as I have less then a foot of free space on either side.

      Hi Yulia,

      Selecting the right window treatment can be really tiresome. Email me some photos and I will see what I can do to lend a hand!!

  • ☀️ Sea + Sun + Smiles We drove across the state last week for a vacay with family! Had a great time and I was so in the moment, I only took a few photos! We had incredible weather and basically lived our best lives all day on the beach and in the pool together! . . I have had a few messages asking where I have been on insta…. The truth is, I have been soaking up time with my kids, working on a few home updates and spending as much time at the beach and in our pool
