Need advice

On what to do with these windows... it's the living room. I want to put up silk dupioni drapes but I'm having a hard time figuring out whether I should just get two very large, oversized drapes for either side, of if I should get a set of drapes for each window panel (three panels total).

Future designers - advice please!

p.s. this was taken on my cell so the pic isn't fabulous and PLEASE ignore the mess - we're not finished with the house, and little baby Alex makes a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig mess!

P.P.S. And, what do I do with the door????

Nice windows!

I'd do drapes. Something like this, PB with clear liner in between. Click "more images" when you get to the link and you'll see what I mean.

Re: Need advice

I'd probably do a pair in each window. It would warm the room up a lot.

Re: Need advice

I think it depends how much privacy you want. I might do rattan blinds or just a panel across the top...

Re: Need advice

I think it might be too much if I do a pair for each window becuase the width is 65 inches, and every drape I'm looking at is a minimum 50 inches... that would mean a pair would be 100 inches, which would take up too much room on each panel and block too much of the window.

What if I did one drape per panel? Would that look weird?
