Decorating ideas...i just bought new furniture and i want to put up window treatments that will look good?
Question:with the new furniture. I have 8 foot ceilings, two windows to decorate and one of the windows is in the center of the wall, but the other window is not centered. The way my livingroom is layed out, to me, makes it very difficult to arrange furnature. Because I rent, there isn't much I can do about that. My husband is really into wolves so we have several pictures and figurines scattered through out the room, the new furniture is a solid microfiber blue (a little darker than country or cornflower type blue). I dont really know what style to call my living room, it's not country or retro...it's more "outdoors-y" i want that feel through out my whole house...so, with all that rambling...I need to figure out great window treatments and maybe area rug ideas to "pull the room together"...any ideas, websites, or pics would be greatly appreciated!
Answers:
Since you have an "outdoorsy" look going, you could go a couple of ways with the window treatments. I would consider a blue plaid or something with a light brown in drapes/curtains. The blue to go with your already blue furniture, or the brown being a neutral and a color found in nature.
Here is a nice blue plaid from Country Curtains:

These tab top curtains come in blue/brown:

Or, if you don't like curtains, you could try woven shades which are very natural:

Did your couch come with accent pillows? What colors are in those? Is there a color in the accent pillows that is the same as one of the colors in any of the wolf pictures? By pulling the color for the curtains out of thngs that are in the room you will help pull everything together. Same thing goes for the area rug.
