Great Room

For this great room there was a lot of little nooks and the home owner wanted to take advatange of them. By providing comfortable spaces for her guest and also coordinating them together to create one big Great Room!

This is trellis fabric we found from Kravet has been very popular this season. We did not do a pleated top on these panels to allow for full coverage of the french doors and side lights.

Using the same trellis fabric in the same room creates a unity and makes a huge room feel intimate. Although this may look like a roman shade it is not. This is a stationary mock roman and is mounted on the inside. This valance over the sink covering a double window gives the effect of one big window!

Elegance

Elegance was the first word that came to my mind when I hung these valances. Although they are a traditional design the polka dot fabric makes them more playful for this young lady's room. Although not seen in the picture, I upholstered the headboard and made the dust ruffle. The paisley printed fabric worked so great for her duvet complimenting the polka dots!

Guest Room

Here is a stage coach valance.

And this triangle overlap valance makes for a nice complimentry valance for a smaller window in the same room.

I'm still here!!!

Here is sink valance I did a while back. This particular one is called a soft mock roman valance. They are great to add softness to those little kitchen or boathroom windows.

Boy's Room Box Pleat Valances

Box pleat valances are a nice taylored look and adds a more masculine feel to any boys room. Use a contrasting fabric to peak out between the pleats. Buttons can add a little more detail without being too feminine.

Borded Swag Valance

When I made this swag valance I mounted it on a board and used many different fabrics and trims. The multiple patterns and textures of the fabric compliment each other nicely! Also the different trims used on the fabrics bring dimension to the swags. Let me know what you think of this layered look!

Some of my creations . . .

This turned out to be the cutest little window seat. The pillows are made from the fabric of the duvet cover and panels. Also, I did the pink stationary balloon valance that frames the window seat. I thought this turned out very nice . . . let me know what you think!
