It's no secret that swapping out curtains is one of the absolute quickest ways to transform the look and feel of a room. Losing the shiny fake silk gold draperies left in the living room by our home's previous owner was high on my project list, but when you're talking about the kind of massively tall windows found in a Victorian home like this, it's no small outlay to buy nice new curtains.
An added challenge in this case was a stained glass window above the two original windows. And I don't mean a period-appropriate work of art. Nope, we are the not-so-proud owners of a rainbow sunset complete with a blood-red sun. I can't begin to understand the thought processes that led to that call back in—I'm guessing—the 1970s. It's not in our budget to swap it out (and if it were we'd probably do something about the actual windows that are painted shut instead), so I figured we were stuck with it.
