Which curtains should I get?

12 days ago

I'm having trouble deciding what curtains I should get for the windows on either side of my bed. I need them to be blackout curtains and initially thought a neutral color like beige (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BR6ZSZ6D/?coliid=ISD3E9HO1Z9YB&colid=152NA4HWOUYFL&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) with black curtain rods would look good but now I think it might be too much of the same color in the space? I'm also looking at these https://www.quince.com/home/coastal-stripe-linen-cotton-blackout-curtain?color=ivory%2Fblue and these https://www.potterybarn.com/products/riviera-stripe-blackout-drape-navy/?_br_psugg_q=striped%20curtains. Any opinions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

I think the bed needs to be moved if possible it makes the space look really busy or you do a wall of drapes all across that wall behind the bed in a color from some new bedding that fits the bed. Waht is the deal with the bed like what is the white and then the dark base ? Was this a platform bed you added a box spring to? You also need much taller bigger lamps .

I love your big ceiling..

Do you love the bed? It feels huge in the space. But maybe it fits I just can not tell by the one photo. Could you take some photos of the space? Other sides of the room?

Here are some great bedrooms with a similar ceiling and a different bed.

notice the bed is much smaller than yours.

again a smaller bed that doesn't take over the room but works with the space

Here is one similar to yours, notice the lamps and night stands are a bit bigger.

What 24" wall ovens should I avoid and which one should I get?
Q

I have an older 24" oven, and I've done some research in the event we have to replace it. Most of the 24" models are European brands, and certainly most with convection are European. In your price range, Fagor and Bosch are probably your best bets. Someone on the Appliance forum has a Fagor 24" oven, and there are some posts about it there. Bosch, of course, is more widely available. Neither of those will have temperature probes; for that, you would probably need to step up about $1,000 over your budget to Miele.

what color of curtains should I get?

I would recommend a neutral tone for your draperies. It looks like your room can also support a patterned neutral drapery as well. This will lighten the mood of the room. I would also recommend that you use a floor length panel. I hope this helps!

Do you need privacy when the window is open? Plantation shutters could work…need to remove the current moulding…need to make sure the shutters’ moulding will fit on the left side. Though I think air would circulate better around a closed blind than a closed shutter, if you need privacy when the window is open.
