Window treatment-Long Island, New York

Window treatment-Long Island, New York MJ DECORATORS WORKSHOP--516-599 3569

Balloon shades do add a special warm look to the window...

In this case we used a beautiful rich looking fabric that was warm looking and soft at the same time.

I gave it a five inch shirring on the top and stuffed the bottom with soft paper.

I installed it in a way that it will be easy to remove for cleaning.

In this case I did not have to worry about privacy...

The client did not want to block the light.

As you can see I built an upholstered cornices across the top.

Inside the upholstered cornice I mounted sheer pinch pleated drapes.

"Can you upholster the walls in this elevator"? Asked the architect...

The walls inside the elevator were made of metal...

We solved the problem by installing wood strips on the perimeter of the walls...

To provide access for the technician to service the elevator, the back wall needed to be removed easily...

I had to make an upholstered panel that was mounted with Velcro...

Three Swags across the top with two Jabots on each side of the treatment.

Than I mounted two side panels that frame the window in a nice way.

For privacy I used the Duette shades.

An elegant look that makes this dinning room feel warm and welcoming.

There is always the option to use a runner on the table from the same fabric, and place mats and napkins.

How to make an upholstered cornice? you may ask...?

First you measure the window from left to right. The upholstered cornice should be about 4" wider the the window frame.

The dust board should accommodate the window treatment that will fit inside it..

For a duette shade you need 3"

For drapes about 5" got the idea?

You cut 1/2" plywood to size. than you nail the dust board and the two side returns.

Now that you have a cornice board you should staple the padding on the face of the cornice board and then apply the

fabric with staples. Make sure to follow the design of the fabric so it will look presentable.

Good luck

This job was done in a catering hall in New York.

The walls were covered with one inch thick of sound absorbent panels.

Over the panels I had installed a half inch flame retardant Dacron padding.

The third step was to apply the fabric over the padding.

I finished the perimeter with double welt that was made from the same fabric.
