Home Decoration Tips
Unnecessary windows: Cover with decorative inside shutters. Cover window with wall board and make bookcase or closet to cover. Place shelves in front of window or create a shadow box and use as knickknack shelf. Cover with draw curtains in bright colors.
Large windows: cover excess portion with valance and drapes. Shorten the window with a window box.
Small windows: hang wide drapes and curtains above and beyond the window margins, and to the floor. Create a border with wallpaper, hanging drapes outside the border.
High narrow windows: Hang curtains partly outside window frames. Treat group of windows as one with valance or cornice board.
High windows on the side of fireplace: Place or build bookshelves under the windows. Paint them to match the wood-work or walls. Eliminate fussy drapery treatments. Block out windows with shelves or shutter. Make window background for shelves and display colorful glassware. If you don’t need the light, the window casing can be used as a frame for a picture backed with plywood.
