There were no window treatments whatsoever in this house when we moved in, and I decided to take the simple and clean approach. I chose plain white panels for most of the house. A bit boring perhaps, but I love them. We've had wooden blinds throughout two of our previous homes, and they're just not for me. Why, you ask? Too much dust. I hate to dust, so I am simplifying things. When these get dusty, throw them in the washing machine and problem solved. I also wanted to avoid obstructing the view from the windows; it's just too purty to cover up!
Looks great, MaryBeth!! I absolutely LOVE that turquoise desk!

thanks, tiff. i found it as is at a neighbor's garage sale and she couldn't believe i was going to use it without refinishing it...i wouldn't dream of it :)
Deleteyay for a new post!!! I was beginning to give up on your blog :) Your bedroom looks beautiful!
ReplyDeletethanks, mon. can't wait for you to see it in person!
DeleteThis is fabulous!!! You have such an eye for decorating, and I totally agree with your simplistic approach. You have little children!! Who wants to dust blinds when you can be doing fun things with them. We have blinds on all our windows, and after seeing yours here, I am thinking I'm going to throw them all out. I really am inspired by your work here, so keep it comin'!!
