These days the style of
the house does not necessarily dictate the style of the window
treatment. There is now total freedom to create whatever mood
or style you want.
Swags &
Jabots/Tails
Swags were first
incorporated into window treatments in the 17th century and
remained a popular feature of drapes in many window treatments
today.
In the
dining room the curtains are made of a stripe silk lined and
interlined, taken right up to the ceiling beyond the top of the
windows. The elaborate swags and jabots are outlined with
trimmings to define their shaped. The jabots are layed with
contrasting silk that echos the colors in the face fabric.
The top of the window treatments is corded with matching rope trim
to give the curtain a strong line. The side panels are hung
on the walls for maximum window clearance. The side seams
and hem of the panels are hand sewn.

A lovely
mixture of floral and creme damask is created for this dining room.
The panels are anchored with a 5 inch banding tying them to the
swags above. The swags and panels are lined. Crushed voile sheers under
the curtains brings light in during the day. Matching table runners
was created to dress the dining room table. |

In this
small living room, swags and jabots were created to dressed up this
small space. Multiple swags were created to draped this 'L'
shaped window. The swags, jabots and panels are lined.
Trimmings are used to lined the top of the swags and to
outlined the jabots. |
|
Red silk,
lined and interlined curtains were created for this oriental theme
dining room. The swags and jabots are edged with gold and black
trimmings. Tassels were added to create more drama to the swags and
the panels are held back away from the windows for full viewing.
The side seams and hems are handsewned. |
|
The creme color
damask are used to creat these swags and jabots teamed with
matching sheers underneath the curtains. A touch of color was used
as a contrast to the jabots to echo the color on the walls. |
|
The bold
color of black is dominant in this big bedroom. The oriental
theme is carried from the furniture to the comforter, shams and
drapery panels. Creme color fabric is used for the Bordeaux
valance embellished with trimmings, crowning the drapery
panels and under curtains of sheers - a brilliant solution for a
tall, wide window. The triple layered box pleated bedskirt
are attached to the underside of the bed frame to fill up the empty
space under the bed and added another dressy layer to the overall
appearance. The soft furniture were upholstered and are
accented with beautiful pillows with splashes of burgandy taken
from the face fabric.
Cornices

The
curtains here are made of a generous quantity of embordored, satin
silk. The panels are lined and interlined and the hems and side
seams are hand sewn. The cornice and pinched pleated panels are
installed on some wall space which gives the appearance of a bigger
window and give more window clearance when the panels are drawned
back.

An
elaborate use of silk was used to make these pinched pleated drapes
that ensure privacy when drawn. The panels are lined and the
side seams are hand sewn. Crystal beads trimmings are hand
sewn on the leading edge and the bottom edge of the curtains.
The cornice that crowns the panels takes the window treatment to
another level with its crystal beaded edge to catch the
light.

A lovely
mixture of pink toile and satin is created for this baby's
room. The cornice is adorned with pink satin to create a one
of a kind appearance. The windows are covered with Roman
Shades to ensure privacy.

light and window clearance. These cloud shades serves as a
grand backdrop to the room.

Silk Roman
Shades are the perfect complement to this library. The shades
are line and interlined to provide some sun protection to the outer
layer and provide warmth to the room. The chain lift system
allows the Shades to be functional for privacy or to let light in.
These roman shades are all hand sewn.
Roller Shades

For
complete privacy and to protect furniture from the sun's
penetrating rays, roller shades provide the best solution. Rollers
shades can add a strong visual element to the room by adding a cornice,
valance and trimming embellishments.

Daytona, Florida. The restaurant is located on the 23 floor

on the bottom and underside of the shades to accent the stipes in
the face fabric.
