Window Treatment Ideas for Family Room
Comments (24)Thanks for clarifying the use of the space. It originally sounded like a room for the kids mostly. I think it is nice that your DH likes to be involved. Plaids and checks are hardly just country, but if that is his thought and he is immovable on that, so be it. LOL I was confused by your comment about the swirly wall areas not being able to be painted. They are painted the ceiling color, aren't they? No special maintenance to paint them another color, and I really think it would make the room feel more spacious if they were the wall color. I like the changes you have made - the room feels so much brighter....See MoreTransitional Family Room Window Treatments

Comments (3)Hunter Douglas makes a couple different shade product lines that come in co-ordinating fabrics/colors in both a horizontal and vertical version. These vertical options are not going to be the traditional PVC clanky, vertical blinds most are used to. You can get soft shades like Duette® Honeycombs, Skyline® Gliding Panels, or Luminette® Privacy Sheers. All these vertical products come in a horizontal version as well.

Comments (0)I just painted the family room BM London fog. I’ve always struggled with window treatment for the 2 small windows on either side of the brick corner wood stove area. Patterned material cLashes with the brick. Ive had plain to match the walls which was ok. I’d consider white shutters but don’t need the privacy and don’t want it too dark. I think I need curtains of some sort to soften the area. Stove is still used so no long curtains are practical...See Moreingrid_vc so. CA zone 9
