Design Ideas for Windows (Design Ideas Series)

Design Ideas for Windows offers hundreds of ways for dressing a window with hard (blinds and shutters) and soft (curtains, draperies, valances, and fabric shades) treatments. All types of windows are featured in the book, including standard shapes and sizes, as well as special "architectural" windows and odd shapes. Fabric types and recommendations, as well as trimmings, are thoroughly addressed. In addition, the book provides important information regarding hardware (including many examples of the latest decorative rods, finials, sconces, and hold backs) and installation. More topics include: measuring, maintenance and care, and solutions for problem windows.
