Your home is beautiful! If you really don't want to spend the $ until you get what you want Home depot has paper temp shades. I think its like $10 for 3.

thanks! middle of the night paint jobs!

so much work with a 2 year old. Everytime I get ahead, its back out for a walk, or he has to pee, needs a drink, wants a different movie.Chat Icon its taking forever!Chat Icon

shades would be a great idea...but we are still very up in the air and it will be awhile before we move to a more permanent choice.

he wants roman shades, I want shutters. Its going to be whoever holds out the longestChat Icon

so I kind of need a cheap finished look now.

Dark bamboo roman shades would look nice (we have them in our guest room, they let light in but neighbors can't see in from the outside):

You could also just go to IKEA and get a nice rod and hang some inexpensive panels. They have a ton that would go with your decor:

STOCKHOLM BLAD curtain ($59.99/pair)

VIVAN curtain ($14.99/pair) - we have these in our LR

Or you could go with both the roman shade and a rod with panels.

Gorgeous room!

We have shutters through the house, except in the kitchen we have shades.

I know what you mean about the night show. Window treatments was one of the 1st things we did.

thanks!

we picked up bamboo shades, going to put them on tomorrow.

I think we have to add more molding to the tops and sides of windows...
