What to do with Arch Windows?

Arch windows can be frustrating when trying to decide on how to cover them. The type of treatment depends on what type of arch's or specialty shade it is.

I am going to show you what I did with a front of a house that has 3 arch top windows.  We used a what's called an arch panel shutter to cover it. These are painted wood shutters with an "Z" Frame. The wall was dry wall, so the Z Frame give it a nice molding around it. The louver's run all the way from the bottom to the top of each panel. We put a divider bar in the shutter so the bottom shutters can tilt independently from the top shutters. The divider bar also hides the lock mechanisms on the window. The louvers are 3 1/2".

This is the Before picture with Curtains on the wall.














And now the finish look with the Shutters!

















The shutters gave the room a much nicer, cleaner, fresher look. Now the home owner can tilt the louvers to look outside and still have privacy.
