Window treatment help!?
I would really like to do woven/bamboo window treatments th my home, but am really hung up on which color. I have a special walnut type shade floor and dark walnut Butcher block, dining table and decor. Should I go with a lighter bamboo shade, or try to match the floors or butcher?

Comments (2)More people posting here are women, FYI. To advise you on this window, we would need to know your goals. What room does this window serve? Do you need light, ventilation, noise control, security from intruders? Will this window be glazed? Where is the structural header and can it be altered? How does the rest of the facade look, where are you located, is it important to coordinate with the style of dwellings nearby? What direction does the window face and is it shaded by other buildings or trees at any time of day?...See MoreNeed help for Window treatments
Comments (3)HI -- I have the very same bay windows . I put Hunter Douglas wood blinds fitted to the windows and have hanging drape side panels on the side walls on each side of the bay . So nothing hanging in the middle . I have the panels ( 95 inch length ) hung from the full wall height (8 ft.) on a rod that goes across the width of the whole wall. Or you could just have the rod the with of each side wall ,having a finial on the interior ends . So that would be ,two small rods with 2 wall cup brackets and two finial ends . I am not a fan of the shutters because of the cost but mostly because they block too much of the light and view . Have the window blinds and the bay interior the same color ....See MoreNeed help with the center table and the wall treatment.
Comments (21)Perhaps a large round table might mean a rug is not at all necessary. It could be a metal tray table, or carved wood like Rebecca Mitchell Interiors illustrates. Ideas also to consider, using multiple tables can be found at http://www.houzz.com/multiple-coffee-tables. I also agree with comments above that some color is needed on the walls. You could then hang round mirrors, or an unusual curved shape like RMI shows above....See Moreneed help for buying window panels

I like the idea oven woven wood blinds. I wouldn't' match too much. Going lighter will keep that white brightness alive!mariahisman
6 years agoThank you all so much for your help and comments! Yes, I do intend to do lighter solid curtains with the woven blinds on each window. A white or natural color. We have a huge 7ft window (pictured), so I’m trying to figure out where I can get woven blinds to fit that size without spending a fortune. Dining table going in the house is pictured below- although I’m considering painting the base black where it is white now.
