- Two-story window
We were asked to select window treatments for a client’s house that included this large two-story window. Because the window faces east, we wanted the morning light to stream through. However, since one row of windows is at eye-level of the neighbor’s deck, we needed some privacy.
There are many options to dress windows. Today’s trends include the following:
- Wood blinds
- Woven shades
- Silk drapes
- Roman shades
- Translucent sheers
- Valances
- Panels
What Premiere Home Stagers recommended is to use window film to cover just the three smaller (horizontal) window panes with an impeded view. The film lets in light, comes in various patterns, and affords privacy. Two samples:
These window films are not like the film one puts over windows to keep out the cold, or to cover a shower stall. They are made to complement your decor. Check out other styles at http://www.designyourwall.com/store/Decorative-Self-Adhesive-Window-Film-Privacy-Coating-c-3.html.
Meanwhile, we are deciding how to dress their downstairs patio door—which also overlooks the neighbor’s yard. Perhaps another decorative window film with drapery panels on either side for color and texture. Since there are numerous options, call Premiere Home Stagers to help you decide what window treatments are best for your home. (608-345-9396).
