Window shade ideas
#2

Bob do you have tracks above the windows that would have been used previously for curtains that slid back and forth? We have and 84 that we renovated and it had these pull by hand curtains over every window. Then there is a valance above each so you don't see the very top of each curtain. We also have the same on the door.

I will see if I can find some pics or if I get to where it is stored I can take some pics. Clarke and Elaine's are the same as mine. The valances are simy just wood tacked together and covered in a material. The curtains hang from small grooved tracks and the hangers in the curtains are plastic and sewn in. I would think you could get these most anywhere. I have found many of the interior pieces needed at marine companies as it seems many of the items were also used in high end boats. Since we were replacing existing curtains we just picked out material with a lady that sews curtains and she used the old ones as patterns. I am sure a good seamstress though could measure your windows and do it from scratch with no problems. Each of our windows is lined with blackout material which I highly recommend.
