i forgot to put that its a sliding glass door. that's a great idea if they were regular doors..ugghh i'm having such a hard time!!

Re: window treatments

I put up curtains on a decorative rod. If you hang the curtains with rings it makes it easy to slide the curtains open and closed. Let me see if I have some pics...

Here's a really old picture from my last house.


I have these in my kitchen now left behind from the previous owners. The curtains are on a wire instead of a rod. They also slide really easily.

Re: window treatments

either bamboo blinds or panels or bamboo blinds with panels
