Award Winning Design
The Vision 12 Awards competition; I was thrilled that my treatment received a award.
The treatment started out very simple; we had velvet brown panels that we were going to alter to fit another location in the customer's home. We added a 20 inch band at the bottom with a cord separating the two sections. We then added a silk panel behind the velvet panels to add some depth to the treatment.
The panels were then bishoped with beautiful tiebacks that the customer
furnished.
The top's of the velvet panels were inverted pleats with
buttons at the base of the pleat. The edge of the velvet drapes had a tiny silk welt
cord, and the velvet drapes were lined with the same silk fabric. The
silk drapes were a brown silk that was shirred on a rod behind the iron
facia that held the velvet drapes.
This really ended up being a fun project that I was very proud of. To start with a treatment that needed to be altered to fit then end up with such a statement in a room just made us all smile and best of all the client loved the finished project.
This is the finished window unit. You can't see the left side, but you can see how this treatment added warmth to the client's entrance.
