Window Treatments for Bay Window Sitting Room & Dining Room
Comments (3)Hey There: Window Coverings and the design of the house must go together and furthermore you must keep the function in mind. In you case I do recommend to layer the window coverings... As I can see in your pictures, you might have a privacy problem if your don't close your coverings, but of course your don't want to sit all day in the dark. So as a first line of defense (literally spoken of course) you go with minimalistic pleated or honeycomb shades. They fit nicely into the window casing and operate bottom up and top down. This will give you privacy and light management and allow you to look outside and enjoy nature around your home. As the second layer you can opt for curtains to the side - either operable or just decorative. This combination is not to heavy to take over the rooms. Stay in lighter colors but don't match them...lighter for the blinds and a bit darker for the curtains.

Comments (16)Since you are willing to paint, I would consider the color that is in the background in your beautiful drapes, as the dark walls make it feel cave like, your lovely wood is not noticed and if the walls are lighter, the windows and view may take more prominence. In regards to a rug...I think an overdyed raspberry colored rug would feel traditional, yet modern and also elegant. Room is not quite what I described but may give you a feel for the look with lighter walls and an overdyed rug....See MoreI am stumped at how to remodel my 1975 fireplace.
Comments (3)Glad you like the idea! Sadly, it wouldn’t work in my place but I love the look. I’m sure it isn’t cheap but I think of it as a two for one - fireplace cladding + art all in one! Good luck finishing your space. It’s looking fab!...See MoreI am stumped on what to do for backsplash & wall
Comments (3)I think the first thing you'd want to decide on is how high you want your backsplash - you can either go with a fairly low backsplash (say, not higher than the bottom of the window trim), or go full wall height, which I think will look spectacular and have a really big "wow" factor. Assuming that's what you want - I've noticed you don't have much space between the windows, so I would probably go with a nice mosaic tile (otherwise, you may end up with stacks of half-tiles in-between you windows, which may not look great). I personally really like Daltile's Rhetoric 2" x 2" Porcelain Octagon and Dot Tile (couldn't find it on Houzz, but you can find it on Wayfair) - I'm going to use it myself for shower pan flooring, but I saw it being used as backsplash as well, and it looks really good. It comes in a few grays/white (which I think would nicely complement your cabinets + countertop) and in a beige (which I think could work for you too as it will complement the wooden elements in your house). If you don't like this particular tile - try browsing online for mosaic tiles until you find something that you like :) Hope this helps - good luck with your project, your house looks awesome so far!...See MoreLee Rozycki
