Browse Forums Windows & Doors 1 Aug 09, 2014 8:18 pm Hi, wondering whether you think it's best to have the same window furnishings house-wide or if mixing it up is acceptable? I feel it's acceptable to mix them so long as they have some similar feel/continuity about them... I have curtains in the living, dining and master bedroom - floor length with brass coloured rod, etc - these are the rooms with dark wood picture rails and window frames, and look more formal/traditional. I was thinking for the other rooms - second bedroom, sunrooms and kitchen - plantation shutters or blinds with a similar appearance. These rooms are more bright and airy with vertical join walls so I don't think would look right with the heavy long curtains. Does this sound alright?? Re: Mixing blinds and curtains 2Aug 09, 2014 8:59 pm I think it's done to mix different window furnishings. We will have full length & wall width sheer curtains with rear blockout curtain in our master bedroom, a blockout wall width curtain in the theatre room with a roller blind behind it, and roller blinds everywhere else. Our curtains & blinds will be installed on Tuesday so keep an eye on my thread as I'll update it with pics when it's done Custom downslope build Build thread viewtopic.php?f=31&t=61873 Blog http://www.buildingroyalmanor.blogspot.com.au Re: Mixing blinds and curtains 4Aug 19, 2014 2:50 pm CH2012 Thanks HomeAngels.
