Today is the day we have been looking forward to for 8 weeks... our new window treatments for the Master are being installed as I type... so I quickly took a few before photos... yay! I love that sound of the cordless screw driver setting the apparatus in place.... We recently painted the walls this soft blue... which I love and our double hung windows just had 1 inch blinds... not very interesting at all.
BTW... it is pouring the rain.. why it is dark... and I'm reveling in it!
I love the bare window look but not at night of course..
the new window treatment will add quite a wonderful element in design and utility!!
Here is the gorgeous handmade tapestry table runner I found for a song at the consignment shop... It is amazing with the rest of the room decor..
as you can see the sconces with silk flowers with that same scroll and actually fleur de lys designs..
Well, I believe the installation is almost complete.... so I'm heading on back up stairs with my camera.
After:
OK, I admit I am jumping the gun....but I'm like a little girl waiting for Santa... so while installer was make a few cuts I snuck onto the room and clicked a few photos... so ta-daa!'
We have new shutters... and I am loving them already...
I really think from now on we are going to have use the alarm clock in the mornings....
I cannot wait til I can get in there and really set them up the way I want!!!
So wallah: The finished look:
So much more updated and timely looking!!

more privacy and more efficiency in keeping the hot sun out and I imagine keeping the warm in during winter...

I can hardly believe it is the same room!
I do love the decorative boxes on the dresser.. helps to hide all the clutter....OOps ..I do need to remove some of those items that had been placed on the bookcase but were moved not to be in the installer's way.
The whole shutter idea was born from the desire to do something architectural.. I wanted crown molding but as you can see with a shed roof that was impossible... so beefing up the window trim with the shutters add that special dimension... I love them!

Your shutters look great, Schotzy! I like the look of an open window too if there is no one behind you. However at night, I want complete privacy. The blinds will work well for you and they really are nice. Your runner is lovely too. Thanks for sharing.
