Just Four Things | Window Treatments

August 5, 2015 by Courtney 39 Comments

Thank you for all the kind comments on the Michaels Makers Summit recap. More than anything, I just hope that you will be inspired as we share projects throughout the year and please let me know if you take a class over at Creative Bug. Maybe we can all push each other to pick up a new skill. My daughter is pushing me to teach her how to sew and that truly is one thing I really want to pass down to her. I’ll let you know how it goes. Today I am back with Just Four Things. I can’t believe it’s time to make our last decision!

just four things

As you know, we are making over Meredith’s room with well, just four things, and in the process hopefully demonstrating that you don’t have to go crazy to make a room look chic and current. And most importantly, fit your own style. I LOVED your input last week. Especially those of you who mixed up the choices and made new combinations. That’s the best. And thank you for always keeping things so positive around here. It means more than you know.

So the daring family has decided to go with the following pillow combination! Is it what you chose?

just four things pillows

fleurish pillow |  spotted pillow

Cubby, you called it! My dear friend, Catherine (goes by Cubby) suggested this combo in the comment section! Here is how it all looks on our board now:

just four things

 

bed | dresser | striped rug | duvet 

meredith before

As a reminder, here are the four things we are planning to add to this space:

  1. Area rug
  2. New bedding
  3. Bedside tables/chests
  4. Drapes

We are now looking towards the back wall and choosing drapes. We will use four panels altogether (one will hang on each side of both windows). I can’t believe we have made it this far already. Take a look at the options below and let me know your thoughts.

OPTION ONE

just four things

scribble lattice drapes

OPTION TWO

just four things

yellow greek trim drapes

OPTION THREE

just four things

navy blue drapes

Ok, my friends! I will say that I have one hands down favorite. I can’t pretend that I don’t. But you’ll have to wait until next week to hear. Let Meredith and I know what your choice is and then we will be able to get to work and show you the fun reveal! Can’t wait.

    Wow, I am so excited to see the finished result Courtney. Option 1 is my favourite. Those curtains are just so cute.

    I vote either option 2 or 3. I love the Greek key detail. I think the drapes in option 1 are a little toô busy for a master bedroom. I am excited to see the end result! I am really enjoying this series!

    I love the airiness of option one, but option three…the navy Greek key drapes…really stole my heart. I love how beautifully they tie in with the accent pillows, especially the smaller Caitlin Wilson one.

    Love how this is coming together. I like 1 and 3. If I have to choose just one, it would be #3.

    Number 1 for sure. Love the cushions too! Great look so far.

    I love the greek key drapes, the yellow is a bit of unexpected color and airy, white the navy really makes a bold statement. The scribbles are too busy.

    Oh # 3 is so beautiful! I agree with some of the above comments–the yellow is sweet as well but doesn’t have the same impact & #1 is a bit too busy. #3 knocks it out of the park!!
    It’s all coming together so wonderfully!

    Either 2 or 3, but leaning towards 3. I like the drapes in #1, but think they may be too busy with the rug and pillows. Can’t wait to see the final result!

    YAAAAASSSSSS!!! Today’s blog just warmed the cockles of my cold, cold heart. #daymade

    I fear of jinxing my winning streak, so I don’t know if I want to comment this time around. Buuuuuuut, if I must, I vote for #3. Strong, impactful, and stills leaves lots of room for Meredith to play after these all come together.

    Number 3! Number 1 is way too busy and clashes with the pillows.. Number 2 is nice but a little boring. The navy adds a little drama and would be gorgeous against that paint color!

    I’m a sucker for classic navy! #3 for sure. I love all the design choices, especially those night stands! And on a totally unrelated note– I sure miss your Friday Eye Candy posts. I designed two of my children’s rooms from your inspiration posts. I love when you search the Internet and share the best with us! Love your style Courtney!

    I like how #3 blends with the other selections, but for me personally – navy is too dark for the bedroom, but remember I live where the sun is seldom out so I hoard any light that God provides! ….my choice would be #1.

    Love #2, especially with the wall color, the pop of yellow is perfect with the gorgeous pillows!

    #3 definitely! Everything else provides such a calm and airy feeling while the navy adds an element of drama and ,dare I say, romance? I feel like it also brings some masculinity to the room for a perfect balance. I love your blog! You have really inspired me to start my own. With a newborn and toddler keeping me busy, I can’t wait to have this much needed creative outlet! Keep it up, Courtney!
