I've been thinking a lot about window treatments for the new house lately. I know it's not the most practical place to start, but I keep seeing these fabric roman shades everywhere, and I'm really starting to love them! The only problem is that most of the windows are huge three pane suckers, and I just don't see how they would work. It's really important for us to have a bright, cheery home, so whatever window treatments we choose have to let a lot of light in. These are some of my favorites:
I just wish the curtain rod went all the way across the top of the door. |
I love how sunny and bright everything in this picture is! |
I know this is a lot like the previous one, but I think this would a so pretty in a bathroom. |
How do you feel about fabric roman shades? Are they too grandma, or are they coming back into style?

I have to say I love a fabric roman shade! We bought all wooden blinds for our house in Tucson just before I started seeing the roman shades everywhere. The hardware store was out of the smallest size so we were short for one window. I was so happy when I realized it was the perfect window for a roman shade! They can come in so many different fabrics and you can even make your own with a kit from a craft store. Endless possibilities! I think its a great idea but I just dont know how you would go about doing the 3 pane windows. :-/
