This Old House

Re: This Old House

Couple more things, Skells. What is the goal here - privacy? Light block? Decorative? (I am guessing not insulating value since these are new windows, right? Were the walls unsulated, too?) Are all the windows the same size? Can you give me the dimensions of one inside and outside the casings?

I actually have this job lot place near me that could have the answer to your problem....maybe. However, the window &quot;pro&quot; in me needs to see the whole thing to make sure this is the right solution. How about starting a separate thread for the windows? Actually, we could do different threads for different things. You could name each things like Skelly Reno Windows, etc...that way we can find them, and others can peruse alter for reference. </div></div>

ah.....will work on a separate thread for the windows when time permits....


what I can tell you offhand is that the windows are all 38&quot; in length but vary in width....27, 30, and 32&quot;.


And do you mean Ocean State Job Lot??? There is one minutes from my house!

I am not in window treatment hell anymore


well...at least til my order from JCP comes in


I got these...they will make a great contrast against the orangeish stain of the wood... and will have a cooling effect on the already warm room.... the carpet is an off-white so it will go great in the neutral earthy palette...

Re: This Old House

Skells -

I need to know if you picked this out on your own if you worked directly with JC Penney to come up with something?

I’m struggling with a bay window situation and want to go to JC Penney – I understand they’re big time when it comes to windows but, am a bit hesitant to start in with them.
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">
Did you work with someone or just peruse online and catalogs and pick on your own???</span></span>

Re: This Old House

I went online Yuri....I did go in the store too but they were just too mechanical for me.....precise measurements, angles, color palettes, textures, etc....I felt overwhelemed and was not able to give her a good understanding of what I wanted....so I just went on the website and searched

I need drapes like these for the french door in the sunroom leading into the soon to be sitting room so I will have to have them do a custom order eventually...

Re: This Old House

Ok - thanks.

I have to think about this some more ...

Re: This Old House

Don't shoot me, Skellz, but those drapes are a little overdone for the sun room

And is the sun room where you'll also have the JC Penney drapes?

Re: This Old House
