Tradional Swags90 viewsThis 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!

'Open' Swags on Great Hardware!68 viewsThis 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!

Just perfect..65 viewsTake 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.

Big and Beautiful!62 viewsThis large window is in a huge room that has very high ceilings, so the scale of the treatment needed to be appropriate, and also needed to display the beautiful view to the yard.
The 'Open Over & Under' swags and jabots are hung from a rod that was upholstered with fabric. The entire treatment was accented with draped lines of trimming all across the width, and the top Palladian window was simply yet elegantly treated with the same type of swag, allowing light and view to flood into the room unobstructed.

An expanse of Swags..56 viewsThis 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.

Shimmery Swags!54 viewsHere 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.

More swagged overlays..53 viewsThese 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.

Swagged Overlays51 viewsSince 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.

Roll-Ups51 viewsThese valances are called Stagecoach valances, or Roll-Ups.
They do not funtion up/down, but do work as a valance. In this case they hide the shade that privatizes/insulates the window.
They are lined with a contrast lining and are interlined, for additional thickness and to prevent color wash-through from the lining forward.

Have it both ways here...48 viewsThe homeowner asked that this window let the light in, yet afford privacy, insulation and darkness when wanted.
These draperies can traverse across the window if the need arises, and the off-white SheerWeave roller shade can be lowered to cut glare and keep the heat of the Sun out.
The shaped and pleated valance covers it all in a happy print!

A matching single window.47 viewsHere 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.

Pretty and private!45 viewsIn this Guest bath, privacy was lacking. The walls were white, fixtures were black, and something was needed to keep the interior private.
This black/multi cotton print was used for the Swag and asymmetric Jabots, which coordinated with a small print used for the functioning flay Roman Shade.
