What do you think of this window shade?

We just did our whole bathroom over (pics in album.. WISH I had some before shots because the difference is unreal!). I bought this shade for the window, but I"m unsure about it. I don't hate it, I just think I need to get used to it, but I'm not sure. Thoughts?

The bathroom turned out great Chat Icon , but I think the shade may be a little too long. Maybe you can tie it up more so its not grazing the towel bar, or get a more structured roman shade.

Maybe something like:

Thanks!

I'm going to have to perfect my tying skills because I agree... it's looking a little sloppy!

looks a bit like a sheet. Maybe a color coordinated, wide fabric ribbon could replace the string.

Re: What do you think of this window shade?

Thanks for the feedback!! I'm probably going to leave it for a little while (honestly, because I"m lazy and SICK to death of looking for bathroom stuff), we'll see if it grows on me and if I can figure out a way to tie it so it doesn't look so sloppy.

Keep the feedback coming!! Chat Icon

I like the idea of it but I agree it looks a little sloppy the way it's tied and it looks a little wrinkled.

Is there anyway you could add some color to it?

I hate to be a party pooper. but i'm not a fan. I think a more structured blind would look nicer. It just seems to be overpowering the window. What about a more tailored drape/curtain?

I don't like it at the bottom. Seems too messy to me. But i do like the concept and just put this one in my bath.

Would you like this better? I bought this one at Pottery Barn. You can buy a short one, that way you don't have too much excess material.

Re: What do you think of this window shade?

I think a fiited shade/blind would look better. The towel rack is taking away from the curtain. Hope this helps

Re: What do you think of this window shade?

After staring at it half the night... I hate it! I definitely want to try a Roman shade or just some blinds and a valance. I agree that it makes the bathroom look messy...

Thanks for the feedback!!
