Some custom window treatments can easily be transformed, saving you money. This bay window and door wall received an updated look. The sheer print panels on the side windows were replaced with a current style commercial roller shade that allows you to see the outside through its transparency. The same vertical blinds remain over the door wall. While the cornice was simply recovered in a multi-colored stripe fabric and then trimmed with beautiful beaded fringe. Short jabots were also added to the sides creating a subtle edge to the window shape, truly transforming these treatments.

Can you tell me how this cornice was constructed? I have the same window & door configuration in my kitchen. I’m stumped as to how to build the cornice. Is it constructed in three separate pieces? The only difference is I have sheer window treatments in between each window and door.
Thank you for visiting my website and for your inquiry. This is in fact a cornice that was built in three pieces then butted together once it was installed. I have attached them together at the back with some hinges but you can also staple on some velcro strips at each corner to hold them in place.
Good luck and please don’t hesitate to contact me with any further questions.
