One thing to consider is that one well-dressed window can rival the cost of your sofa. And it will need to be taken down and professionally cleaned at least once a year.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Yes.. agreed. When you need to clean is a product of your location and the exposure to the outside. So, that is why everyone needs to consider cleaning as a consideration. 💕💕😘

Thank you for using the noun tense “drapery” instead of the verb tense “drapes” which often people say incorrectly! Excellent presentation!,

[@mfb5242]

Me too! Has driven me crazy for years. I’ve been an interior designer for 35 years so have corrected sooooo many people LOL, Lisa you really give excellent professional advice - thank you!

[@Kaththee]

I was taught to avoid using "drapes" or "drapery," and to instead use "curtains." I often default to "panels" because I am afraid "curtains" confuses people who beleive whatever they read on the internet. Language does change but my English professors would be turning in their respective graves if I used "drapes" or even "drapery."

[@toomanymarys7355]

She's also the first person who has said "jabot" aloud that I've hear heard. 🤣🤣🤣

[@eleanorfrost8705]

I have never watched any of your videos before today and want to say what a fan of yours I have become. Your video on drapery was the most informative, educational and inspiring I have seen. A per peeve of mine is drapery that has pooled on the floor. Does anyone realize how dangerous it can be if someone's shoe get's caught in the fabric? Having the panel a fraction of an inch above the floor is beautiful and much more practical. I agree with your comments and have felt this way for many years. I don't see why more professionals don't stress this fact.

[@jennifertonge-martin3110]

I have made window treatments for over 20 homes (in the military, I moved alot) plus homes of my friends and neighbors. I have plenty of books on draperies. However, your video has suddenly made the types and styles of draperies incredibly clear and easy. I chose some incorrect styles in my last home and was confused as to how to correct them. Suddenly, I understand what I need to do! This is one of your best videos!

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Jennifer!!! I am SO glad this was a helpful video, even to a window treatment expert like you!!! 🙌🏻💕 Draperies are a HUGE topic - I'm so glad I could help break it down for you guys!! 🤩 Thank you so much for this super sweet comment, and hope you're having a fabulous Monday night!! 🥰💙

I live in very cold Melbourne Australia in a traditional house and need my drapes to function as thermal barriers, even thought it not my style I need full length to the floor, thermal lined with a pelmet to keep the draft out.

[@PostImperfect]

And then again in summer to keep the heat out! I associate really hot days with dark rooms :) I think the pelmets are key to stopping the air flow. We have laid planks of vinyl flooring stuff over our curtain rods to stop the drafts without adding visual clutter

[@Rosericaso6729]

I have had both and really prefer to dry clean my drapery than clean duaty blinds! 😁

[@sugarplumk2381]

That’s an interesting thought Dolores. I’ve had both. We had Venetian blinds when I grew up. They collect way more dust. Our curtain fabric doesn’t collect dust. It’s dense and has a sheen. I think you’ll find that it depends on the fabric.

Thanks! Love the details. That thermal lining could be used here in FL. I have one room that has a thermal lining since it gets flooded with sunlight.

All my windows have plantation shutters that guard against the hot sun of our climate, and fixed panels.

This video came at a perfect time as I'm now onto selecting draperies after I battled my painting dilemma. After painting some walls matte black in my rental, it looked great with some of my Restoration Hardware furniture that was also in a matte black finish. But something didnt feel quite right. After watching your video I relaized some of the mistakes I was making. Too many metals. I had chrome, wrought iron pieces and gold going on. I couldn't figure out how my former apartment with the same pieces now felt so out of place. Then your advice shed some light. Aside from too many metals, I realized the architectural feel was now a traditional backdrop in my 1920' s frech electic rental and not a new modern loft with concrete floors. I also had no framed pieces on the wall then and the walls and ceiling were matte white. The only gold were two gilded thai buddahs . I set forth and removed all the framed pieces and knew the black walls, despite how cool they looked, it needed to be floor and ceiling, and as much as I liked the looked, I prefered the minimalistic white walls. I customed matched the orginal paint but cooled it down to pair better with all the black; painting from floor and the ceiling. It worked!! I now have the modern minimal vibe from the apartment in my rental. I opted for 96" brushed cotton twill panels from RH, hoping this will provide some relief from all the sun but still feel modern and clean. So thank you 😊 for these amazing videos. I watched your video on rugs but how to choose the right shade of grey, is that something of a personal choice or are there tips in selecting the right one. I see a lot of rooms with all white walls and furniture like mine, but most are using light to medium solid grey rugs. I found a knotted wool rug thats more charcoal but worried it may weigh the room down with me ending up loosing that airy feel.

When I sold my two previous homes, the new owners were so impressed with the custom drapes, they kept them and designed around them. One woman referred to them as the “crowning glory of the room”.

[@LisaHoltDesign]

OMG M this sounds absolutely DREAMY - I can picture your custom drapery now!! 🤩👏🏻 What an incredible gift to be able to sew your own perfect window treatments...I'm a little bit jealous!! 😆🧡 Such a wonderful story - thank you so much for sharing!! 🥰💚

@@LisaHoltDesign - thank you fir your gracious reply. My mom instilled in me to sew neatly. Her gowns were so perfectly sewn, they could be worn inside out. My drapery was the same. As soon as you tell someone you “made the drapes” they immediately pick up the hem portion and turn it over. My drapery could be hung reversed, it was that neatly finished. My linings were matched perfectly. I particularly liked “puddling” because it was much easier than measuring for a precise length. Some fabrics stretch from being hung, so you must allow for that adjustment. Mom never used a pattern, she was schooled in draping the fabric. I’m not that good, in sewing clothing, I need a pattern. The key to fabulous results is fabulous fabric. In NYC we’d get gorgeous material. It’s difficult in other areas. On line you can get beautiful fabric, but I like to feel it, hold it, see how it falls. You can’t do that over the Internet, even with a sample. I love your channel. Hopefully you will inspire a new generation of sewing enthusiasts.

I have grommet drapes. They works well for both my sheers and my blackout curtains so I can have both in my open concept living and dining areas. It's the matching grommets that tie them together.

[@MultiEbony11]

Best breakdown of drapery hands down! Thank you so much! This was so helpful

Hello Mam, you should probably know that I replayed 2:23 a couple of times to see your childishly excited, innocent smile. And thanks a lot for the usual great content!

[@LisaHoltDesign]

Rejwan!! This is super sweet - I had SO much fun making this video!!! 😍💙 I really do get super excited talking about window treatments!! 😂 Thank you for your kind words, and hope you're having a fabulous Friday!! 💚🥰

Please do shutters ASAP! Concerned about blackout possibilities.

[@lorraine_life]

Even the best shutters made will have light gaps. Interior mount (within the window well) not as many as exterior mount (on the molding or creating a molding in the construction of the shutter). They are most complicated to install and a professional measure and installation by the same person is going to be the best fit.

[@time2danz441]

I love your energy!

I just really enjoy the way you talk and the way you explain things. Thank you🙏

[@amandah2935]

You always make me giggle. Good content while having fun. Are you going to go into when and why you might make a certain choice over another in future videos?

[@woosterlaxmom5664]

I loves this. Could you do one with more info and detail on things like cornices, roman shades, valances, swags, etc? From types of treatments to info like should you do certain things with crown molding, especially larger crown molding, hanging blinds or shades on swing-in casement windows. I have a sun room in a 100 year old house with 12 casement 8-light windows and high very ornate crown molding about 4 inches above the window casing. I am thinking about bespoke roman shades in an opaque fabric possibly with some sort of trim detail. The house used to have cheap plastic blinds and they are just dust collectors to my mind. I grow a lot of plants in this room and use it as my TV room and office so I need a little sun filtering at times to cut the glare, but I don't want to really hide the view of the yard.
