Dramatic "stage " effect to demonstrate special furniture or art, or make a comfortable seating nook.If you are using swags on your other window treatments, add one across the front of your bay window too. Bay Window Sheers and Solids : If you'd like to let in daylight but block the view from meddling eyes, double curtain rods can accommodate a sheer that stays closed with solid panel draperies that may be opened or closed for a black-out effect. This is best done on each window within the bay instead of closing off the whole bay with a single rod.

Bay Window Caf Curtains : dependent on your style, sheer caf curtains with a fixed rod at the very top and bottom can make a snug casual effect. This is done with a single fixed panel over each window or with 2 panels over each window that may be slipped apart to take in the view.

Bay Window Shades : A roll-up shade on each window is an alternative choice to think about. Shades come in just about any fabric including coloured and boldly printed solids that block-out light and view, or a range of sheers that will filter light while maintaining privacy and protection from sun damage.

Bay Window Valances and Cornices : Valances are a choice that may be added to about any window treatment for a rather more finished look. Valances can be installed across the front of the bay or follow the curve of the bay above each window. If your bay window runs full height to the ceiling, a cornice across the front can outline a secondary space in the bay for intimate seating.

Bay shutters : Wood screens have made a return recently for their eternal look, sturdiness and low upkeep.Custom-fitted window shutters work as well in a bay window as on the standard window and add a sophisticated touch to any room.

Bay Window Free Standing Screens : an alternative choice, dependent on your private style, is to put a free-standing screen in the bay. Screens come in many variations from Chinese-style painted wood screens to open frames holding fixed curtains, hanging beads, stained glass panels or lacy carvings.

A free-standing screen can provide plenty of flexibility with a selection of privacy options. Go Naked! If your bay window frames an impressive view with no requirement for privacy or sun protection, do not ever be frightened to do nothing. Enjoy the view and let nature supply the decoration.
