Lots of Layers..Theis treatment began as Swags and Jabots, and quickly became a more layered modification for this room. A third swag with its' matching Jabot are placed over the two, lighter colored pieces. The treatment is finished with a very full, full-lrngth panel to one side, all displayed from a board mount.
There is a mirror image of this treatment to the left of the sofa!

'Open' Swags on Great Hardware!This room is coordinated around the toile paper on the walls.
The window treatment started with large diameter crackled hardware, which carries the 'Open' swags across the window. Note the gathering of the swags as they meet the rings that suspend them from the rod...
Swags are trimmed with cotton ball fringe of an Ivory color.
The panels at the sides are banded with the same fabric choice as the swags, for added coordination!

Swagged OverlaysSince these windows were very large & tall, the top treatment needed some scale and strength to use the space effectively. At the sides there are full length panels, to relive the coldness of too much glass.

More swagged overlays..These swags were installed laying over a 'soft cornice' shape. This shape supported and displayed the swags to their best advantage. The panels at the sides fill the glass area.

Wow..This sheer fabric with a blackish scroll design, was used as a swag within the window itself, and has matching over-length side panels to complete the look.
It is intended to warm the room, retain what light is coming in naturally, and create a look that does not necessarily fit the expectation of a New England living room design.
This is NOT an everyday design; I was very happy to be asked to do this!

Swags & other things...This window began with a cornice covered with Faux Alligator skin, which was the backdrop for shimmery side panels to the floor, with the cute little sheer Swag visible from behind everything!
Without the Swag, the window would have revealed too much glass, making it a cold-looking fishbowl. Instead, it's just enough.

Take a close look...This sheer fabric with a blackish scroll design, was used as a swag within the window itself, and has matching over-length side panels to complete the look.
It is intended to warm the room and retain what light is coming in naturally.
It is just luscious.

Shimmery Swags!Here is a large Bay window treated with the sparkling sheer material - the cornice of Faux Alligator is seen here, with a great view of the inner Swag valances across the width of the window.

A matching single window.Here is a smaller mate to the huge walk-in Bay treatment that is in this album. Note the tri-color trim on the edge of the swag - almost as if it was made FOR this treatment.
The chair was also made for this room, from the frame to finsh. It is referred to as a Channel Back style.

Just perfect..Take a look at this wonderful walk-in Bay window. It's the perfect home for a collection of plants.
The window is one of two focal points within this room, and therefore required much thought and preparation.
Consider the span of this window - in this room it's perfectly sized; most homes never see this kind of expanse.

An expanse of Swags..This walk-in Bay window required just the right treatment, on just the right scale.
Note the sheer under layer - they give a warmth to the room while still allowing natural light in.
The top treatment was a span of swags, which took a turn outward over the flanking windows. These side windows were defined by their own jabots and full-length panels.
Anything this complex needs to be right the first time, and it was.

Tradional SwagsThis very large built-in Bow window in a historic home required gravity and restraint with a 'look'.
This homeowner chose the wrong side of a satin fabric; the final result was a perfect fit in a number of ways!
