A Picture to Ponder: Kitchen Cornice

12 Dec A Picture to Ponder: Kitchen Cornice

I found this picture yesterday, and it revolutionalized what I am thinking about doing for window treatments above my kitchen sink.

Genius!  I have had such a conundrum due to the kitchen cabinet molding.  Since it juts out on an angle from the cabinet (see photo above – mine looks similar), you can’t really do a rod or a regular cornice.  I had pondered doing a simple roman shade or faux roman shade, but that just didn’t seem special enough.

Then I found this photo.  Swoon.

Double swoon.

What do you think?  Do you prefer simple roman shades, or do you think something like this is more exciting?  Tell me your thoughts!
