Help for window treatment
Comments (13)FAB window. How about a hinged rod, or a room width rail. The 1st will open and sit against a wall, to be closed when needed, or one at each side. The curtains would be floor to ceiling and look gorgeous whether open or shut. A room width rail at ceiling height could sit the curtain to the left of the window when open, perhaps with a luxurious tie back and the curtain, when pulled over, would cover the entire wall as before. I DARE you to go for WHITE linen or, better still, WHITE velvet. Stunning! Bee...See MoreWindow treatment - triangle window
Comments (3)Hi Sarah, I imagine these windows could be treated in the same way as conservatory roof blinds with Pleated blinds. These would be available in blackout options. Alternatively, shutters can be made to unusually shaped windows like these and I think they'd make a really stunning feature of such lovely shapes! Here's an example: Enjoy dressing these beautiful windows, Zoe...See MoreNeed help on kitchen tiles and window treatment
Comments (14)I think you can transform this kitchen on a low budget to tide you over for the next couple of years. I would do the following: Try painting a sample tile to see if it will properly accept paint. If so, I'd paint them a very pale cream to make them disappear, and remove the large section of tiling altogether near the door. Wipeable paint should be sufficient here. I wouldn't change the door handles - your ideas for bringing in a few industrial styled items will work quite well even if you keep these. Industrial style bar stools (black metal and wood) + black metal industrial style lighting will have great impact on the room and tie in with the cupboard handles and radiator you already have. Photo wall on the end wall behind the breakfast area is a nice idea - just be careful how you place the frames so they don't conflict visually with the lighting you choose when you are standing at the other end of the kitchen. You could actually do this photo wall over your nice charcoal coloured radiator instead to avoid visual clashes with the light fitting. I would go for a group of photos all in the same frame finish to keep it coherent - just modern slim black frames to link with the metal on lights and bar stools. Windows - if you are not overlooked I'd leave them without blinds. It is more in keeping with the pared back industrial style you are leaning towards. Are you happy with the colour of your walls? It might just be the photo but it looks a little on the dark side - and I'm not sure grey really sits with cream very well? You could paint the walls a lighter colour - maybe something similar or the same as the tile colour you choose which will make those tiles disappear even further. Perhaps there is a tendency for many of us to try to include grey with existing schemes because it is strongly in fashion when in fact it needs careful planning to avoid it either clashing or looking too cold. (just what I've observed from experience)! If you are planning on revamping the whole kitchen in a couple of years I think doing these small changes will satisfy you as to the existing with very little outlay. If the things you choose to buy now are going to be used in the new kitchen too you won't feel as though you've wasted too much time and money now. Hope some of these ideas might perhaps be useful- I don't profess to be a professional but I really enjoy interiors and making things work!...See MoreWindow treatment for two recessed window in same room different width
Comments (9)Hi, Sandra, In my opinion this would depend on how dark you need the room to be; if you need it dark for sleeping then I would suggest using a blind(roman or roller) inside the recess, and then having a more sheer curtain on a track going across the top of the entire wall -- you could use a pair of curtains for each window; if they are lightweight it wouldn't affect the radiator in the middle if you wanted to pull them back. The sheerish curtains would work with the overall feel of the room. Alternatively you could still have the blinds in the recess and the single track, with more tailored curtains -- one for each window, so when they are pulled back (with a holdback) there would be one on the left of the left hand window, and one on the right of the right hand window. Treating them as one window, in effect...See MoreSue Kelly
