Westchester County Beautiful Window Treatments With Fancy Edges
We have the French to thank for lots of inventions. The baguette, Braille and pasteurization offer a tasty, crunchy bread, reading opportunities for the blind and milk safe to drink. There’s a French curtain rod that provides a functional, attractive alternative to the more common straight rods attached to hardware which is secured into the wall. When the curtains are closed, there’s light coming in at both ends.
Credit the French for correcting this little drapery installation faux pas. The French rods gently curve 90 degrees at each end. Your drapes can turn the corner at the end and voila! There’s no light creeping in at the edges of your window coverings. It’s a smooth style of rod which works with any décor and comes in myriad colors and metals.
This AP Shades client, in the enchanting Village of Dobbs Ferry on the Hudson River, chose not only the French rods but also custom drapes with a decorative, vertical, leading edge trim. It adds an innovative element of interest to the curtains, gracefully flanking 9-over-9 pane dining room windows in a room with sophisticated millwork. Hanging curtains is a project which demands accuracy, experience and attention to details. Our experienced installation crew approaches every task with the professional skill set, tools, supplies and gear required for a perfectly level and functional window treatment. We ourselves were captivated with these drapes for the attractive, custom-designed, vertical border.
