Yes, we're revisiting the kitchen window once again. The first two iterations just weren't working for me. I love the look of roman blinds, but
the one I sewed was blocking the natural light. Here's the new one I ordered from Overstock.
Because of the trim on the inside of the window, we couldn't mount the brackets on the inside of each side as we usually do. Instead, the hubs mounted them on the outside face of the trim. At first, it looked awful. The blind is shorter than the window since it was meant to sit on the inside of the trim, so that's exactly what it looked like - a short blind hanging off from a big window.
Then I had an idea! I asked the hubs to hang the curtain rod back up slipping the rod between the valence and the shade.
So now the rod looks like an accessory to the blinds and the roman blinds don't look like they are floating anymore.
These are the same blinds I ordered for the
dining room but in a different dimension.
