itty-bitty windows - levitt ranch

I have those stupid little windows (I hate them, can you tell?) and cannot, for the life of me, find any window treatments!

Valances are too long, long panels look ridiculous.

any thoughts?

THANKS!

We just did blinds on ours, bc I'm still figuring out what to do with them also! I didn't want to get anything custom bc I'm planning on changing them in the future to normal size windows. Lol

I am not sure if I have the same windows but I have small windows in my bedroom upstairs and I hung the valance a little higher than I normally would. It makes the window look a little bigger.

IF they were framed correctly when the houses were built there should be a stud on either side of the window framing that runs all the way up, so a molly wouldn't be necessary if you wanted to hang the valance a little higher.

BTW, can I just say how happy I am you say Molly!! I swear DH thinks I made up the name, he just calls them anchors!
