Bay window Curtains Hello all, I have this awkward bay window that I would like to hang some curtains on. I looked up some rules of thumb and encounter two that really stuck out to me. One was that the rods should be about 2/3 away from the ceiling, and the other stated that the rods should be about 4-6 inches from the window frame. When I did the measurements and …

Our windows are quite large – 124″ wide x 72″tall – therefore I cannot go one shade across. Middle window has a screen and opens. Need help deciding what makes most sense esthetically Options are:…
LPT When attempting to break glass, such as a house window or a car window, aim for the corners rather than the center. The center of the glass is more flexible and can absorb a greater number of impacts, while the corners are structurally weaker and more prone to shattering. submitted by /u/brMerak
Window or open wall? I am thinking about closing off a loft space with a wall, since the bedroom looks out into another building. I am contemplating on using the existing glass railing to either create a window using both panes, one pane, or neither pane and leaving an opening (wall will not go to ceiling completely) I just am not sure will it look odd to have inter…

White wooden window shutters on black window trim: yes or no? submitted by /u/htownnwoth

I like the idea of blackout curtains over sheer curtains because I can see outside with privacy but also block sun, freezing cold, and have extra privacy.

It seems there are modern styles now but are they cheap looking? submitted by /u/goodni…

Couch placement: block the window and some square footage vs put TV in front of a window? Which side should we put a couch? Should we stick with L couches or do multiple armchairs for flexibility? Hoping to maximize seating space and make it more comfortable, however it’s awkward if we want to include a TV. My gut feeling is we shouldn’t block valuable window space / natural light or else it’ll feel closed off but I’m not sure if t…
