The JCP curtains arrived yesterday with pics....Kind of long.

I got them yesterday. I didnt get the rods or anything bc I still might want to go the custom route. I mainly got these to see the material to see if they would work.

What do you think??

Dining room.

I think I like these. I also have the valance. I think it dresses it it a bit and I am contemplating a coordinating fabric shade.

This is the pic from JCP with the valances. Mine would be striped like the panels.

Living Room:

They do not look this shiny in person, but I am not digging them. They are very nice, I just don't like how it looks here.

External Image

This one is nice, but I think the solid is a little boring.

External Image

here's the rug that I ordered and am supposed to get this week. Its been on back order since November!!
External Image

Here I was playing around putting them in different rooms:

The stripes in the LR. Not bad - thoughts?
External Image

Two Tone in the DR - not bad either. Again not that shiny in person.

External Image

ALSO - I am not married to the sofa toss pillows. Once I decide on curtains, I will probably have some made with the same material. and I willprobably get new lamps.

Sorry so long and confusing!! Thanks!!!!!

I like them! I like the stripes in the DR (I think it might look to busy with the stripes in the LR with that beautiful rug!). I like the red/gold solid one for the LR. They look great and I love the color of your DR!

I love the stripes for sure in either room. I think it looks great.

And I love the merlot/beige block one but agree not in the living room so much.

Re: The JCP curtains arrived yesterday with pics....Kind of long.

i like the striped ones for the LR and the one with the two-tone for the DR. the two-tone ones look more formal to me, and they wouldn't have to compete with a rug, since you don't have one in your DR.

i love the striped ones and think they are stunning with the LR wall color!

Re: The JCP curtains arrived yesterday with pics....Kind of long.

I like the two tone a lot, and only for your DR. I don't like them in the living room b/c the light color is on the bottom and too close to your couch (IMO).

I like the stripes for the living room veyr much!!!

Love that rug!!!

I am not a fan of the valance, simply b/c it is not my taste.

Re: The JCP curtains arrived yesterday with pics....Kind of long.

Really like the stripe in the DR but don't like the options for the LR. I saw a tapestry like print in the JCP circular this morning and thought of you - maybe something like that would work?

the moroccan tile one looks nice

I agree with Valerie too. Stripes in the LR and the two tone in the DR. Not a fan of the valences simply because they aren't my taste.

Love the stripes!

i really like the stripes or solid in LR but not a huge fan of any for the DR. let me see what i can find online.

eta: what about a combo of these? you would need to play around to see what would work best in each room but colors look like a good match.

solid

plaid

stripe

or perhaps a plaid or solid in the LR and something a little more subtle like this or this in the DR.

Stripes in LR, solid red in DR

I'm not a fan of the 2 tone, although I want to like them. The material and the trimwork in between looks so nice. But they remind of a little girl's holiday dress.Chat Icon
