Last week's installation in Williamsburg was interesting because it was the first time I'd every designed something "blind". I was sent the measurements by the homeowner and she chose her fabric from memo samples I sent her.
This is the room I walked into:
That trash on the chair is mine!
What a light, bright room with lovely views of the golf course! Which is OK if you are sitting out on the deck, but there was no privacy when you were inside.
The fabric we used was an embroidered linen-look from Duralee.
The sheers were chosen to coordinate with one of the embroidery colors, and were also based on the following phone conversation:
"Are your walls more grey-ish or more yellow-ish?" "More yellowish." Talk about your leaps of faith! I have to say, those sheers were such the perfect color against the walls, I wanted to do back flips.
We used a napped lining which gave the pleats a beautiful roundness:
The hardware had a bronze finish and we used very simple finials:
And here is the finished design of stationary panels over sheers:
Isn't that chair in the foreground to die for? We recovered it at their previous residence. Feels like I've been working on this room for 10 years.
And now there is no need to wave to every golfer or neighbor who passes by!
Sheers are from Kasmir.
Decorative drapery rods from Select Hardware. Traverse rods from Kirsch.
