Another Design Option for Double Stack Windows


Our clients, Jenelle and Earl, contacted us several weeks ago and decided it was time to add draperies to their living room. As the conversation continued, we found out their daughter is getting married and they were be going to hosting the wedding reception at their home. What a perfect way to use part of the wedding decorating budget! We proposed two different styles that we thought would be perfect for their space. After reviewing the renderings we created, they decided on the Basketweave style panels. Since the panels were going to be almost 17' long, we felt like the Basketweave would add extra detail and break up the length of the draperies.




It was a win-win for everyone! Jenelle daughter will have a beautiful space for her reception and Jenelle and Earl will have fabulous Basketweave draperies in their home to remind them of their daughter's wedding. Since these windows produced a lot of heat and light, I also recommended tinting their windows with Vista film from Solar Insulation and adding Hunter Douglas Duette Duolite Shades. The Duette Shades from Hunter Douglas are two shades in one. The top of the shades is a sheer Duette and the bottom shade is a semi-opaque Duette. I love these shades. They one of my favorites!

What Window Treatments Can you Do on Double Stacked Windows?




Our long time clients, Steve & Jann, wanted a window treatment for a window wall.They had their cedar plank house built on top of a hill in a heavily wooded area. This window wall has a beautiful view of the wooded area. They love their view but wanted to add some warmth to the room and also wanted a design that was in keeping with a natural design style. We selected pleated draperies with a banded lead edge and decided to use a custom made bamboo rod, rings, and finials. The draperies frame the window and will clip ever so slightly into the glass to preserve the view.

Steve and Jann had us quote this window treatment some time ago when we did some other work for them. Steve decided to surprise Jann for her birthday with the new draperies. Jerry created the rendering and the storyboard and Steve presented them to her during lunch. Needless to say Jann was thrilled. We have an appointment to finalize fabrics next week. What a birthday gift! I guess we would all like a birthday gift like that. Happy Birthday Jann!!
