I love lots of light in the house so the blinds are seldom closed so the drapes would be for looks only, hanging on the sides of the windows. I can't decide but leaning to no drapes. What is your thoughts on drapes, for decor or for function?
had decorator drapes in living room and dining room
of former house. Left them when we moved. No drapes in this house. Either blinds or cloth shades that pretty much stay up 99 percent of the time. They face the green belt in back. Blinds are easy to adjust for light or privacy. Don’t miss drapes/curtains/valances at all.
