what kind of window treatments should I use on extremely small windows?
Question by secret: what kind of window treatments should I use on extremely small windows?
I live in the basement and I have a total of 3 windows which are extremely small. The ones in the study and the kitchen are 1 ft in height X 2 ft in length. The ones in the bedroom are 1 ft in height X 4 ft in length. These windows are located near the ceiling and not in the middle of the wall if that helps. Putting up regular sized curtains seem inappropriate and I’m scared it may overpower the look of the room.Not to mention it may look weird. What are some ways that i can cover up the windows for privacy reasons? Are curtains the only way to cover the windows and if so, what can I use? What are some alternative ways if there are any?

If you keep it simple by using a valance the small window will not be over dressed. Use a roman shade or blinds for privacy.

You can use any style you like. The arched part isn’t covered, so any type will work.

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.”

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
