Window Dressing ?

[anneasquith]

any ideas on a change for window , apart from curtains, with a venetian blind, TIA

[anneasquith]

thanks for your reply !!!!! :(

How about a simple dressing with a coloured voile artfully arranged arround a pole with glam finials or if the room is very plain embroidered saris can look wonderful

But surely if you've got venetian blinds you don't need any other window dressing?

[rowanwitch]

the window can look a bit bare and utilitarian

some very nice material (colour depending on the room etc.) draped over an ornate pole over the window ancient greek style (see first link below, but longer) or some voile (see link 2)
