Decorate windows on your house to match your requirements, make a focal point within the room, let in more sunlight, provide some privacy or just whether to showcase a spectacular view. Choose from a number of decorating options — such as blinds or drapes — or mix several styles for greatest effect. Decorate each window or pull them together to produce the illusion of a larger, single window.

Curtains

Select drapes and pair them with a very simple or curtain rod. Hang the rod directly above the window or position it a couple of feet to produce the illusion of a taller ceiling. 2 to four long curtains will allow sunlight but still preserve some privacy. Other types of drapes, such as tab top ring top and rod pocket, provide protection, blocking sun and hiding the window. Some curtains also contain backing to help reduce energy costs and maintain indoor space temperatures.

Blinds

Blinds and drapes for window embellishment can stand for a minimalist look or pair together. Blinds come in many types of materials, such as faux wood, wood, cloth or vinyl, and configurations, including vertical, horizontal, slat, rolling or pleated. If your double windows do not have a divider between them, a long blind could create the look of one large window. Another option: Use two blinds to fill out the window region.

Window Film

Window film to double windows to make a customized look. Window film is easy to use and can be trimmed to size. This product often is referred to as”privacy film,” because it provides some screening in the outside but still allows sunlight to filter inside. The film comes in many different patterns, from speckled, frosted, etched and solid to outlines of animals, landscapes and trees. Whatever your selection, use the exact same kind and manner of film on both windows to get a uniform appearance.

Added Trim and Decorations

Install wooden trim windows that are double around decorate and display the huge window area. Decide on a wood trim style to match the appearance of your room — such as a sleek, easy style for a look that is contemporary or a rustic, rough walnut. Paint the trim to match colors in the room, whether a dark timber, a classic white or even a bright shade to create the windows”pop.” Place a bench with cushions beneath the double window to make a seating area; potted flowers or put plants to complete the appearance.
