Kitchen Window Dilemma
Comments (8)Nice kitchen. That fabric will not block light for purposes of privacy, obviously, but it could provide some degree of privacy in the way that sheer curtains do. You might be better served using that fabric to create a valance that would hide raised mini-blinds (that would give you more light control/privacy options) . If you make a long side swag valance, it could hide the frame of the window as well -- softening the look while letting in as much light as possible. https://www.google.com/search?q=image+long+swag+valance&client=firefox-b-1-d&tbm=isch&source=iu&ictx=1&fir=xIXIqjf2xen_MM%253A%252CSxm2MtKdAWYv0M%252C_&vet=1&usg=AI4_-kQeQ_hv_Rwja8MCLziNoSfAsV6hnQ&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiNrbO9k4zpAhXPm-AKHZ-LA1QQ9QEwAHoECAEQFQ#imgrc=xIXIqjf2xen_MM:...See Morewindow over kitchen sink: dilemma
Comments (7)“how do you open the window if the screen is inside? Am unable to figure out this part ...” As I mentioned, a casement window is opened by a crank. You can Google it. Here is a link to a video that shows you how a casement window opens and closes, and how the screen is placed. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=K-tY6UEWEgU...See MoreKitchen window and outlet dilemma
Comments (2)I’m immediately reminded of drew Scotts house. (pics below) I love the windows and would not get rid of them completely. Ideally. I would choose option 1! Keeps the beauty of the window. And it’s more functional for your storage and appliance needs. As well as probably keeping the kitchen a bit cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. Probably not much but I think it’ll help some. ... If you can do that I would. But consider the exterior? I wouldn’t want it noticeable from outside. You don’t want it to look like a patch job. Do you have a way to get matching material? Is this your forever home? How pretty are these pics? Just shows you the potential your space has!! Love it!!!...See MoreHelp w outlet dilemma under kitchen window, need to make decision ASAP
Comments (6)Thank you @mxk3 z5b_MI we're excited for it to be finished so we can really enjoy it! I think we have figured out the outlet situation. We've purchased sillites which should be small enough to fit in the space between the window and the counter top. Our GC told us that the edge of the receptacle can't touch the counter top. Is that true? @Patricia Colwell If I put the receptacles in the window apron, should I use the quartz counter top back splash on the back and side wall (around the window apron) ? Or do you suggest some other type of back splash? Does it need any back splash above the counter top?...See MorePaul F.
