Bay Window Cornice

Bay Window Cornice

Bay windows are always popular, because bay cornice, completed with rich draperies to the floor, will give a “flavor” to any interior.

When designing the interior of an area with a non-standard form, bay windows cornice can effectively be used. You should left the mounting of the bay window cornice to experts. And if you want to hide it, hide it with architrave, but keep in mind that such a striking piece will surely dominate the entire composition. An easier way to hide the ledge is to use a common cornice pelmet box.

Sectional Bay Window Cornice
In order to decorate a bay window, which consists of three sections, designers recommend several ways. You can decorate each section with curtains and beautifully drape them by using special holders. Another way: side section of the bay is decorated with broad curtains, while its central part remains uncovered.

For decorating bay windows we often use roman or roller blinds. They are comfortable with the fact that they are fairly easily fixed (as compared with curtains) and do not cling to a radiator or a piece of furniture placed near a window. It is aesthetically pleasing and comfortable to stretch the cord, designed to control roller blinds, on the top of the window and withdraw from any of the side of the bay.

In addition, roller and roman blinds are attractive both in terms of saving consumables, and in terms of wide opportunities of decor. They are easily painted and demonstrate the texture of fabric. There might be other different ways of the original finish of curtains: by using decorative ribbons, bows, cords, sockets and other accessories.

Rounded Bay Window
The rounded shape of the bay requires a special approach to the design of the cornice. Cornice is desirable to hide, in order to make a spectacular accent on curtains. Despite the fact that masking a cornice will require some additional material costs, the aesthetic impression of this decoration will be very strong!

On the already installed precipitous box you can attach a pelmet, or braid, decorated with a fringe, or make original tails.

In this case, for decorating rounded bay window cornice it is preferable to use long curtains, because plane roller blinds do not meet the smooth, curved lines of the bay.
