Help! Wall cabinets on either side of window...
Comments (4)I have no uppers at sink, but we have them either side of a window. Think how different this would look if I'd insisted on grabbing those inches at the window and put them into the cabs. (Curtains are temporary; on tension rod. Will have romans and honeycombs if plan holds. Still thinking as to whether there will be an oak bridge between cabs up there at top.)...See MoreWindows on either side of cooktop and hood?
Comments (4)Here is my final layout. My kitchen is 18' X 13.5'. I have centered my range on the long wall with windows on either side. To the left is the eat in kitchen area and to the right through the opening where the frig/pantry are is the Great Room where we spend most of our time. Let me know if you have any questions. I am also including my inspiration pic. Here is a link that might be useful: Range Flanked by Windows...See MoreWindow treatments for windows on either side of doors?
Comments (2)First off- get a protective/ thermal layer of professional window film installed which will block 99+% of UV, create a layer of four season insulation, and add glass breakage retention qualities to your windows.

Comments (0)We are not putting blinds in the house, just double curtain rods with sheers and blackout curtains. The length from window to window right here is 150". Notice that the windows are super close to the doors, and I also have light switches very close to the left side window. So, I'm not sure if I should just do the heavier panels on the left and right with the sheers all the way across or if I need to do multiple panels with some in between the windows. Please help! Any ideas would be much appreciated...See Morelizbeth-gardener
