Windows with Style: Do-it-yourself window treatments Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is absolutely awesome for ideas and instructions. It doesn't matter if you are a beginner or an expert at sewing, this book has step by step pictures so you can see exactly where you need to be in your project. I made a 12 feet long soft cornice that came out absolutely beautiful (with welting that I made and all!) and up until then, my sewing experience was in Jr. High sewing class.
All the projects have complete step by step instructions and photos. There are lots of great ideas for just about any type of treatment you could want. You'll be re-doing all of your windows!
This book is an absolute MUST for anyone interested in saving a lot of money and making their own window treatments. I have yet to find any other book that even compares to this one.

Curtains: A Design Source Book Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is great for anyone searching for ideas for a clean modern sophisticated interior. The design concepts are tailored for the transitional to contemporary home. It is not a resource for curtain construction.

Fabric Magic Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had this book for over ten years, and have made several projects from it. It probably is not ideal for those with only basic sewing skills, as the projects describe proportions rather than measurements (so that they can be adapted to any home), but I have had good results. As a book to inspire, it is wonderful. Paine has created beautiful interiors and has many creative ideas for transforming spaces with fabric.

The Ultimate Curtain Book: A Comprehensive Guide to Creating Your Own Window Treatments Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While the designs and photos are beautiful, this is not the book for those, like me, who are new to the home decor stage and simply want to "do it themselves" after growing to despise the current window treatments around the house. The instructions assumed a great deal of prior knowledge, particularly in sewing techniques and terms. I found this book frustrating and unusable - but then again - I can sew a straight line and that's about it. If you are looking for simple - look elsewhere.

More Creative Window Treatments: Complete step-by-step instructions with full-color photos for over 60 distinctive window treatments Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This was one of three books I purchased on window treatments; I turn to this one for advice and direction. Step by step directions with pictures on such topics as installing hardware, including hanging a mounting board, to the basics of sewing. Great ideas for rod pocket curtains and custom shades. I used it to create two different window treatments, scarf swag and shoji-style screen. Each project tells you how to measure and materials required. Due to the great instructions, both treatments turned out very professional!!
