What type of window treatments would work best for oval window?
I'm redoing my living room and am wondering what to do with the large window that faces the street. It's not a busy street so total privacy isn't an issue. I also like letting lots of the natural light through at all times so not sure what makes the most sense. I'm just thinking about what might looks nice and add a nice touch to the room. Thoughts? Here are pics....

Window treatments for a NON window treatment type girl
Comments (14)We are not window treatment people either, but have started to add some as we've reno'd/decorated a few of the rooms in our house; two bathrooms and our office. They really do help to finish off a room. That said, we're not covering our kitchen bow window, or the DR bow window, though I might consider something for the DR window at some point--just for the window panes themselves, not to cover the whole bow-unit. We used Hunter Douglas' Designer Screen Shades in the Roman Shade style (ours are mounted inside the frames becuase of our window style/frame depth). The shades are very clean-lined and range in sheerness. With the sheerer weaves/fabrics, you can see outside with them down and they allow a lot of light in....See MoreFunky Window Placement - what type of window treatment will work?
Comments (12)Originally I thought Roman shades, but when I read "lightweight, whimsical sheers", I thought of Urban Outfitters, https://www.urbanoutfitters.com/shop/draped-shade-curtain?category=window-curtains-panels&color=004 and because all of their curtains are on the more whimsical side, I think you could pick any to use with a tension rod, because you don't have room for proper curtain rods, https://www.urbanoutfitters.com/window-curtains-panels...See MoreWhat type of window treatments would you put on these three windows?
Comments (28)I would need to soften and warm the room with panels, especially with your color/furniture choices. One rod can work and for your windows I think it makes sense due to how close they are. Hanging it up to the ceiling just looks silly. Historic homes have window casings that are worth celebrating and showing off. Modern homes, not so much, and you have none. The spaces between your windows are small enough I hope you would be hanging only stationary panels in between each window. It makes no visual sense to put decor under a curtain rod that's purpose is to give the illusion of one large window. That still leaves you finding a shade to compliment for light blocking....See MoreWhat type of shades would work best? Very little trim between windows.

You can use higher drapes to incorporate the curve of the window, but you'd have to move your wall sconces and I'm not sure the extra height is right for your ceiling. I would use regular drapes at the height you have, or interior mounted blinds.
