Creative window coverings - casual, chic and 'cheep'.

Here are five casual  ideas to dress up your windows, whether you have existing blinds or shades, or panels now. These fresh ideas can be used seasonally or left up year-round. Your style and your budget will dictate!


Using re-claimed exterior shutters is a gorgeous, rustic look. 


Draping a fringed shawl over a pole sets the stage for an antique dressing table.


Don't need privacy? Add some lacy fabric remnants for softness.


Dishtowels make great window toppers, as these do, to filter sunlight and a country charm.


A napkin draped over a ready-made shade adds color, pattern and a custom look.
