How can I make two 54' wide curtain panels work on 70' window?
Comments (9)A partial solution could be to attach flannel interlining between the drape and the lining. This will give the drape a fuller appearance. For a complete solution you could sew two panels together (or have someone do it for you) and then attach flannel interlining. I like the bamboo idea too, I think they look great! Depending on how much energy you want to invest, maybe combine both elements (blinds and interlined drapes)....See MoreHow do I make these woods work together
Comments (5)I wouldn't leave any oak cabinets the current color if you paint some silver sage. I don't think the silver sage color goes with the yellow oak. Maybe the right shade of creamy white would look OK with the existing oak finish. For a wood finish to go with silver sage paint, I'd experiment with espresso. Or, you could also strip off the current finish, which I'm pretty sure is a yellow lacquer, quite easily, brush on a solution of baking soda for a driftwood-like color that would look great with the silver sage. I have very similar oak cabinets and have played around with different finishes on them. At first I thought it would be easier to paint than to strip and refinish -- but it's not. Not if you are picky about the paint finish anyway....See MoreHow can I make this ugly bulkhead work as a feature wall
Comments (14)I love the photo of it wrapped around, I'm just not sure how it would work in my space. It's open concept so there is no fourth wall to complete the ceiling in the room. Plus the wall on the left and right of the feature wall are much different lengths. The other issue is that the bulkhead goes down the wall on the right too. There is no way to match that on the left because of the window with beige curtains being so close to the corner. It feels like such a hard space to make pretty!...See Morehow can I make this work in my new space
