Hey there and thanks! Yes, the fireplace window is exactly the same as the other and equi-distant from the other on the other side of the TV unit so I think it really need to match and be consistent with the others...The drapes I'm looking for (actually, already have) are not full and will be able to hang down slimly. I always extend the rod as much as possible to not cover the windows...Will have to work some magic with that one... I HAD seen doing a road but only a panel hanging down on the outsides of each "pair of windows"...but of course can't fid them now... I have faux silk ones that match the walls well...love the color BUT wish they weren't so full.. I have beige (a little too light though I think) linen and brown color block grommet ones too... And then also crazy ones from IKEA. Will hae to take pix. Ugh. I just hate full drapes that close off a room. I'd like to do them on the two windows that you see fully in the picture, but think doing it on the two on the other side of the tv unit makes it too much. SIGH. Pix to follow. So do we agree that a cornice is farty? I just thought these were super cool....funny thing is, the brown and beige look 80s but the gray looks super cool..not sure I have enough gray to pull it off... This is a better view of the 4 windows (From when we moved in day 1 with temporary furniture and rugs)...

I am glad I posted as I was for sure taking those blinds down but now I don't think I will. Have you ever seen the "decorative" drapes on the super short poles that go on either side of the window to "frame" it yet it is impossible to draw the drapes closed because they are all scrunched up to be about a foot long on a foot long decorative pole. I doubt I am explaining myself well but i was thinking in terms of this b/c I don't want to ever bother closing the drapes nor do I need to and nor do I want all that material. this kind of "frames" the window. I have seen it on HGTV but can't figure out how/where to buy this I will look into RH...Any other ideas or mind readers out there that know WHAT I am talking about? :)

Tried to find a variety to show a few possibilities... This color palette reminded me of your room, and I think it does a good job showing that dark blinds can definitely work with white trimmed windows. I think the drapes work here because they’re not too light/in contrast with the walls, and they help repeat the accent color in the bedding. The sheerness of them allows for different levels of privacy and room darkening when used in tandem with the blinds. And, arguably, the softness of the drapes helps bring a romantic feel to the bedroom. This photo also has a similar color palette, but no drapes. What helps the white trim work here and feel cohesive with the rest of the room, is that the bright white is repeated elsewhere in the sconce shade the headboard. Good design often uses repetition and the rule of three (color, shapes, etc.) to help bring a concept together. A few other photos... maybe one will strike your fancy.

I am also trying to decide what to do about our 2 sets of French Doors in the great room. Had originally thought about woven shades, but a quote from our local shade shop came back at over $400 per single door!!! I am doing white Faux wood blinds or shutters from the same shop, but do not like blinds on my doors. Think I will wait and see if they are even needed. The doors connect to a screened porch. Should have enough privacy. One concern is glare on the T.V. (opposite the doors) should the T.V. be watched before the sun goes down. KateF - I love the idea of curtains for your dining room, as well as for my great room. One problem that I might have is that there will be little room for curtains on the far right because of cabinets for bookshelves going there. They are 18" deep. That will only leave about 12" of wall space, I think. I will measure today.
