Window treatments guidance from designer Claire Schwab

Alexandria designer Claire Schwab with 20 years in window treatments shares affordable basics like panels and a pole, adds grass or woven shades, and covers mistakes such as undersized curtains and lack of pressing. She prefers long, flowing tiebacks avoided by her, says bathrooms use shades or shutters with decorative valances, and room darkening is key for nurseries.
