It is also possible to make a small window appear taller, Mr. Mendelson said, by placing an outside-mounted shade at the ceiling or the bottom of your crown molding, so it covers the wall space above the top of the window.
“That illusion is one of the most important things I learned about window treatments,” he said.
“It’s a way to add verticality to a room.”Of course, if you plan to use two layers of shades, you could use both installation strategies, with a decorative shade on the outside of the window frame and a second shade tucked inside the frame.
“It’s like a stage where you’re able to create different moods and moments,” Mr. Brown said.
“The more you layer, the more you’re able to do that.”For weekly email updates on residential real estate news, sign up here.
