Window Treatment advice needed!


So, here are two pictures of my bedroom (with stick on redi-shades at the moment!):

Here is a close up of the bedding:

There is no room for an inside mount. There are baseboards right below all of the windows.

There is a matching drapery in the pattern of the bedspread, but would it be too much of the same and/or be a problem with the baseboards:

So what would you do instead? With an outside mount, seems like wood blinds would come too far away from the wall. Maybe roman shades? Or should I stick with the matching drapery?

Personally, I like the matching drapes. By "baseboards" do you mean baseboard heating? I don't think it will be a problem.

Yes, I meant the heaters along the bottom of the walls. I wasn't sure if it was ok to have them covered.

It won't hurt to have them covered. I like the matching drapery. If covering the baseboards really concerns you, you cold just shorten the drapes a few inches.
