What would be the cost of getting custom window treatments done?
Question by Nemo: What would be the cost of getting custom window treatments done?
I have a window (or set of windows) in my family room that takes up a whole wall. I don’t have the exact measurements, but it’s close to 84″ high and 108″ long. I want to get curtain/drapes/window treatments (whatever they are called) made. I know that a major cost factor will be type of fabric that I select plus hardware, but can someone give me a price range so I can start budgeting? Just to make it easy, let say I select a fabric that is $ 20 per yard.

The best thing for you to do would be to:
#1 get the exact measurements for your window.
#2 pick a company/designer that makes custom window treatments
They will then be able to help you pick what’s best. They can price it out and you can contact them once you have the money.

Any ideas on how to come up with window treatments fast and cheap for my new house that has tons of windows?
Question by *me*: Any ideas on how to come up with window treatments fast and cheap for my new house that has tons of windows?
It is an old cottage with lots of charm. I plan on painting it all light, and sanding the wood floors light, so I want the curtains to be light too.
I need ideas for window treatments that are affordable, but creative. This house is covered with lots of windows, and I don’t know what I’m gonna do.

you go to your local fabric store. buy inexpensive yards of fabric. Then you go to walmart and buy a curtain rod with metal clips fasteners (like clothesline clips but metal). if you want a finished look, hem the edges after you cut to size. Make slightly wider to accommodate the “pleats.”

Q&A: What are these window treatments called?
Question by Tammy Kay: What are these window treatments called?
At an open house I saw these window treatments that were a fabric box surrounding the area above the window, like the curtain rod or something. I have no idea what they are called or where to go to find examples, instructions, or to just buy some! I loved them and want to have some for the house I just bought. Help meeeee!

Question by April: What color window treatments in kitchen with gray walls and hunter green counter-tops?
In the house we are buying my kitchen will have light gray walls, hunter green counter-tops, and white cabinets. What color window treatments should I go with?
Best answer:
Answer by Mr Jay
An antique white would look nice, but I’m not sure how well that would hold up in the kitchen.
One with very subtle tones of blue/green or very light gray would also work as well. Albeit a bit harder to find though.

What type of window treatments should i use for our basement apartment windows?
Question by sweetpixiegirl007: What type of window treatments should i use for our basement apartment windows?
We live in a basement apartment where the windows are at ceiling height, small, and wide. I’m having trouble with finding nice window treatments. I’m tired of blinds and ugly curtains. Someone help?

Answer by Kristina’s Design Studio
Have you considered cellular shades? They’re not “industrial” looking like mini-blinds can be, and they’ll add some texture and fabric to your windows. They’re also great insulators, which you may need if you’re living somewhere with cold winters.
Symphony Double Honeycomb cellular shades offer tons of colors to choose from so you can choose a pattern that fits your style. You can find them at http://www.blindcrafter.com/Symphony/symphony.cfm. And if they’re not your style, you can do your window treatment research at BlindCrafter.com, too. They have a variety of styles and fabrics to choose from.
I hope that this insight helps.
Happy Designing!
Kristina
