I have three 16" X 16" windows spaced about 18" apart and about 12" from the ceiling along one wall of my living room. I have NO idea how to treat these windows. The rest of the windows in the house will be honeycomb top down/bottom up shades, but these just seem to be the lost children of windows. Technically, they're high enough that I wouldn't have to do ANYthing with them and there wouldn't be any privacy issues, but they are going to look odd with nothing, since the other windows will be treated. I thought about an outside mount honeycomb blind that will cover all three, but the rest of my windows are inside mount and it could look odd. Any ideas on what I can do with them? Thanks for your input. BTW - this is a new construction and I'm not very decorative... LOL

are the sills wide enough you could put some glass vases/bottles/etc. up there? I don't know that you really need to put any kind of window covering on them.

That sounds really fun. I would treat them like art frames. Some stained glass art would be great. What style is your house and your colors? If it's contemporary just some color blocks with clear glass being the majority would be nice. If it's traditional there are many patterns out there to choose from.

But yes a picture of the room would be good to further recommend solutions.
