I just did the window treatments in this master and I really think they are suitable for almost any room in the house. I made these cornice boxes for almost nothing using a 12" x 2" and securing them to the wall with teacup hooks! I wraped them in batting for a cushiony look and fastened the fabric around the corners seamlessly like I was wrapping a present. The windows already had real nice blinds so the treaments did not need to function for privacy or light. Because of this the panels did not need to function so to save even more money there is no rod involved. These are half width "dummie" panels stapled to the other side of the cornice box. The ywill always hang beautifully because they are stapled in place.

Here is a closer look at how the panels just fall from behind the boxes. The materials used are also a neutral tapestry up top and a gorgeously expensive golden dupioni silk for the panels. Lovely choses by my client who tied this whole room together.

Dependent on the size of the window these custom made cornice boxes start at $40 and the panels are as always $1.00 an inch in length per pair -lined!
