Space above kitchen window...
Comments (6)If your microwave is on that shelf, will you be able to open it? I'm having a hard time seeing how you can reach in to pull stuff out, assuming the mw hinge is on the left and the control panel is on the right (not sure if they make MWs in a reverse configuration). Could you swap it with the double door cabinet right next to it? That way it will be partially hidden from view next to the fridge -- out of site from the casual kitchen observer. As for the window, if you included a few inches of filler to the corner, you could likely do a simple, short valance across the ceiling over both windows to make their heights look as if they are the same. Not sure how you feel about fabric up there, or if it will get gunky... Also, did you consider doing just a free-standing hood instead of the cabinetry run above the stove?...See Morewindow coverings, decorating, and lifeless space
Comments (6)What I found depressing is the unrelieved gray in an otherwise very nice room. Roman shades seem like a good idea. Hang two or three paintings in a vertical line between the windows, and make sure they have some color. Change the pillows on the couch for ones with navy, terra cotta, lemon yellow, gold - anything with other colors, especially some warm colors for a more layered look. Roman shades in cream with navy banding or navy and cream pattern. Try larger lamps with a ceramic base in blue or terra cotta....See MoreWindow curtains for two story windows with too much space above
Comments (6)If light and heat control are not an issue hang the drapes from just above the top windows and IMO those drapes need to be at least 2x fullness with a rod tht runs all across the wondows and look like they could actually be closed even if you never do it. IMO the silliest thing ever is 2 short rods with panels it always looks cheap. What is the flooring? The reason I ask is if it is wood you need sun control or the floors will get bleached anf if vinyl some of them can'y handle a lot of sun....See MoreI’m looking for ideas to finish the space above my kitchen windows
Comments (11)It's nice. maybe a tad boring. You could do sconces, or some solar shades, bamboo shades, or even a simple faux roman shade w/a bit of color or pattern. quick mockup w/same color shades as your countertop and a sconce over each window see this modern kitchen and how they placed the woven wood blinds above the window? that might look good w/yours. tried to photoshop it for you. I'd also bring in more greenery or maybe a centerpiece plant for your island. just for a bit of color you could try and find a sconce that is similar to your pendant lighting Here's a mock-up with some color/pattern Love your floor tile....See Moredefever
