I look at your examples and I think. “Well, obviously that’s too short/narrow/dark.” Then I look at my problem space and I’m stumped! Thank you for giving such great illustrations and simple explanations!
Rebecca, I don't follow you assiduously, but I really admire you. I like the contrast between you, a successful and capable businesswoman, who has chosen a certain level of sophistication in her life and her clientele, while at the same time, you haven't forgotten your humble origins and you are really compassionate and kind with your viewers. Your passion for your job is shining through, and it never feels like people are beneath you. I am really endeared right now. Thanks.

"Your window treatments suck and you know it!" 😂 This intro took me out! 🤣 🔥 🔥🔥🔥
Hey Rebecca, do us ALL a solid by telling the manufacturers of the world's curtains and drapes who sell stuff to Walmart and Target and TJMaxx and every other store that THE WORLD DOES NOT REVOLVE AROUND 84 INCH WINDOWS!!! I believe THAT is the real problem. No matter where I go, and I mean EVERYWHERE I go, all of the drapes and curtains are only 84" long. I know that's "industry standard" but they've got to stop thinking that all of us in customer land WANT 84" window treatments....I know I sure don't!! I have bypassed some really cute curtains strictly because they were only 84". Like you, I like to take mine up to the ceiling - including my shower curtain! - because it just makes it look better. For 8 foot ceilings folks, that's 96 inches, for 9 foot ceilings, it's 108 inches. Makes a world of difference!
You are absolutely right a 100%. But Rebecca has been given us a solution. Buy an extra panel and add a band to them. Is going to take time for the curtains industry to take a leap. A lot of people are used to the standard size.
JCPenney carry's the longer drapes.
Jeez there are 90, 96 and 108, and 120 lengths if you look hard enough, already made, available for ages. Just Google it. I buy mine online and they are premade 96 and 108.
I have an IKEA just an hour away, that is where I buy my window treatments. And their drapes are 96" long.
Amazon
Breath of fresh air listening to Rebecca. It’s such common sense. I’m current,y looking for a new home and amazed at how people decorate.
Great teacher! I've made that mistake - buying a darker panel against a white wall. I thought it would look rich and tie in with other fabrics in the room - but it makes the whole room dark. I also like those short rods that go sides of window as then no one is opening/closing them. They're just for decor/adding softness to the window. The window itself needs a shade/blinds that actually function for light control...and in the south, we NEED light control during summer days!....so funny ...as I continued to watch ....you said exactly THAT! Love that you said...panels are for your WALLS...not your WINDOWS!!!!
Yes, I have learned a lot from you over the years and have to say you would approve of my window treatments! None are too short, they blend beautifully with my neutral walls, and they are placed close to the ceiling. I love how simple but elegant they are.
this video was just at the right time for me. I moved 2000 miles and bought a little house. I knew about the rods placed near the ceiling. I will be looking for longer drapes that just skim the floor. Thank you, Rebecca!
Aaaawww! How sweet the guy from CVS, giving you advices about the window treatment, not knowing you are a designer 😊. You’re so humble Rebecca. May God blessing you and give you prosperity in all you do 🙏🏻
This is gold! You'd have a field day in my house... and I'd love every minute of it. More videos like this, please! Very helpful, thank you.
Yay Barbara… I’m so happy to know you love this series and are learning new ways to make your own home beautiful.
Wow ! Training your curtains. What a great idea!!
Great video and thank you for sharing your design knowledge with us!
I have two window seats. How do I hang curtains there? Or should it be shutters or wood blinds. We get a lot of afternoon sun
@@mist4926use the wall to hang the curtains, maybe wood blinds for the windows. We also get a bunch of sun where I live, right now I have honeycomb blinds, but that’s what was here when we moved in. I will be changing them out for wood soon because the sun is brutal here in the desert.
Oh my word! I am so glad I am restless tonight and cannot sleep, or I would not have seen this video! This is sooo helpful! This is going to help me enhance my bedroom and lounge windows. Thank you!!
What a huge difference it makes with the correct way of hanging window treatments. I love your videos and learn a lot from them.
I’ve watched your videos for quite some time now, my apartment has been looking better one piece at a time. Keep those videos coming!
You bet my friend 🙌🏻
@@rebeccarobeson1could you please help with sliding glass doors? I have them going out to my screened in porch. How can I put drapes on sliding glass doors?
I just saw your window treatment failures and I am a follower now. I’ve lived in my home 28 years and I can never get it right. My ceilings are 16 feet tall with huge windows, my dining room is exact same my living/dining is tall long and narrow. Someone mentioned trying to find curtains these days are down right difficult unless you have 84 inch lengths.
I’m going to keep watching as I loved your video.
The 'rules' are clear and you show so many examples. Thank you!
Thank you for adding the comment, when you can afford to do it. I feel like a lot of decorators forget that some of us are on a budget. My husband and I worked to pay off our very dated home and now we have the budget to update things like curtains. Thanks for the wisdom. I replaced window treatments in two rooms that are open to each other, one was orange and gold and the other was brown and blue (came with the house) with a white sheers and light tan drapes all the way across, wow what a difference it made! Thank you kindly :)
I loved every minute of this video! I cringed at mistakes I've made and patted myself on the back when I got it right.
Your advice was so compassionate, but you spoke the truth. You never disappoint.
I'm learning so much from you, Rebecca. Window treatments, drapes, curtains, are so challenging. I love looking at the photos of other people's design mistakes, and how clearly (and kindly) you explain how to remedy them. I've now watched your videos on proper furniture placement and where to put the TV, and I am loving your channel. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise and your enthusiasm. Best wishes from Vancouver, British Columbia.❤
Ms. Robeson...hurricane Ian blew throughout the inside of my Florida house for about 5 hours. I've been slowly putting it back together. I've watched so many of your videos. I can't tell you how helpful they've been! I've been wrestling with window treatments for a month! Lol. I feel better now.
Agree with all your comments on all these rooms. Your videos always show things that some people just can’t see themselves. 👍🇬🇧
Ms. Rebecca you are looking fabulous. I'm so glad you were able to bounce back from everything. Keep doing what you're doing and I'll keep watching
Rebecca you inspired me! I signed up for design sessions a couple years ago when I did a first pass update on my home and I put roller shades on all my windows and floor to ceiling curtains on the WALLS😂 I really enjoyed the look but I didn't have the funds to do a fuller more luxurious pleated curtain... and I never got around to hemming what I had so I had a puddle 😂 plus my kids had their hands all over the linen curtains making them quite wrinkled. Well. You inspired me to launder all my linens, and buy some luxurious triple pleated ones for my main living space, using the old ones to add fullness in my bedroom treatments since they are the same fabric and color. My home already looks so much better!! Curtains MAKE the room.
When drapes are almost pooling on floor, they get very dirty. I think an inch above the ground is more practical for real life family with kids, pets and open windows.
Yes that is an standard size called just barely kissing the floor,. and it is a legit design style. No need for pooling curtains.
Pooling to me looks kind of untidy
And the vacuum cleaner!
Pooling curtains are also a tripping hazard.
@@monicacollins8289I agree. My 80+ year old Aunt tripped and broke her wrist because her curtains were too long. She recovered but I ended up hemming all of her curtains to a safer length.
I think your the greatest , I love that that you actually help average people to get better at decorating , we all can’t afford the option !! Your advice is so so helpful Listening to your videos and RUclips’s has helped me so much I’m quite proud what o learned and changed in my own home 🏡
Just discovered your site Rebecca. Love that you have actual photos that you can point out the mistakes and how to fix them! So many designers I see on RUclips have the camera basically focused on them and you see very little if not fleeting photos of the design. I will be tuning in for more tutorials!
I learned so much from this video about window treatments. Especially since I'm at the point of adding draperies and stressed over what would look best, etc. Thank you so much for your classy presentation. I'll definately be looking for other lovely decorating suggestions from you!
Thanks so much for your videos. We just moved into our retirement home in FL owned by an 86 yr. old woman and I need to do some budget friendly updating. One (of many) areas I think that a window treatment will make a difference is the large sliding glass doors out to closed lanai. I've taken down the large pink cornice and plan on taking down the fabric vertical blinds (once I figure out how to). I was planning on putting Faux Linen Living Room Curtains 96 inch Length, Rod Pocket & Back Tab Window Treatments Semi Sheer Drapes Privacy with Light on each end of the windows to frame yet not cover the windows as that is our only light that comes through the home. I'm trying to go for a Modern Coastal look in the home. Thanks for any advice you can offer!
I love this so much! I've been following you for almost 10 years (I used to call you The "Christmas lady"😊) it's amazing how on-point your vision always is and how easy you explain every concept to people like me, who have zero talent for design or decorating 😅 Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge!
Much respect❤
As an upholsterer, these tips make super sense because I learned them in school. But everyone had to hear them!! thank you for helping us make our homes more beautiful and homy.
I hope that I will see less these mistakes that bother me thank to your advice 😅
Thanks for this video. I already knew most the basics, like touching the floor and almost or to the top of the window and dress the wall. However not making them a functional piece was not part of my plan. I’m glad I watched this video. I’m in the process of updating a guest room. I now know the drapes and blinds are independent. Never thought to much about that aspect. This just saved me a design mistake. I plan to have linen Roman shades and linen drapes. Both will be a white color.
You seem so genuine and down to earth person and yet totally an exceptional artist! I totally admire you!
Great video! I love that you're brutally honest - there's no point in not being honest. We all need/want the help to understand what we can do to make our homes look nicer and I learned a lot from this video. I'm in the process of getting new curtains for my living and dining rooms so this was very timely. Thank you!
I love the process !! Part 1,2 and 3!!! It creates such an In-depth guide for your subscribers when recreating the look!!! Keep doing it the way you do it!!! The room so far is stunning!!! Can’t wait for Sunday!!
Thank you, Rebecca! I’ve always struggled with picking the right window treatments, but your detailed explanations have made it so much easier. My living room looks so much more elegant now.
Dear Rebecca, Thank you 💕 for giving your fans the tips to improve and feel better about our homes. I keep learning and watch you in my little free time that I have. I live in a small old bone structure apartment in New York City and want to end this year feeling fabulous living in a modern decorated apartment within a budget.
With much appreciation, 😊Pat.
PS: I started watching you since the Christmas Trees decorations videos and gift wrapping. Yea, Old fan.
Great suggestions! I'm not a designer, but these are all things I have learned over the years from reading decorating books and magazines.
You’re absolutely brilliant Rebecca. Love watching and learning.
I followed your suggestion to uncover my window and “frame” it on the side with my drapes…tremendous difference! Thank you!
Oh Rebecca thank you so much for your input on my drapes I was so unsure about taking them up 2 stories again. When I replace them I promise to send pictures ❤
The first video I got to from this channel and it's funtastic! You do such a great thing taking real people's homes photos and explain what is wrong and telling how to fix it. You give great solutions for quite unique interiors. That is so much more then majority of bloggers do!
P.S.: my husband is one of those who thinks curtains should be moved around, we ended up me telling - you don't touch curtains, just don't
We need more more videos 😅 you cant believe how much that i feel when i watch it. AMAZING DESIGNS
Oh my goodness @_pl2lp… inconsistency posting every week. Not sure I can pull more out of my hat. Just remember… 3 weeks from now… I begin my Christmas decorating. It will take everything I’ve got to pull it off… while still posting every Thursday at 2pm central.
@@rebeccarobeson1 I got epilepsy when i was study to get bachelor degree at the 1st year, here Im now architect. I went to dr at Tampa, FL and I thnx God that i come better. Most thing that i like the interior of thier homes also the schools. Now i start and almost finish for my own Villa at KSA.

I wanna make it to feel that i still in Tampa, I wanna live in your designs. I dont know how you can help me but at least i said my dream and i hope to get it true. Thank you so so so much for this videos and ill wait more cause i love it ❤️.
@@rebeccarobeson1
I think the problem is mot U, Rebecca. U R posting good enough. The thing is that Ur videos are too awesome that make us easily get addicted to them and the more we watch the more we love to have. 😊❤
Great video! I’m bringing in the ladder and spackle this afternoon. The entry drapes are hitting trash can tonight.
Best thing I’ve done for myself was our 1-1 session, so so valuable and you are so fun, husband and I had a great session with you,
Omg Patty … you are such a doll! Sorry we didn’t have time to get to these rooms but glad you saw this. To you my friend… I hope my ideas are helpful to you. I can’t wait to receive photos of how you implement these ideas. I believe you will find more joy in your home 🙏🏻
RR
Hi Rebecca, Thank you so much for taking your time to share your valuable knowledge to everyone. I've learned so much from your videos. You're amazing!!!!
All great advice! I do have to say Kildsence's living room overall was a wonderfully decorated room. There was such a lovely mix of materials, beautiful arrangement of furnishings, and it is so warm and inviting. 11:01
Wow, an incredible video. I felt happy about the number of times I noticed I was already using some of the rules. In the last few years, I have learned so much about additional design concepts new to me. Thanks for being an amazing teacher. I will be joining your sessions.
Rebecca , thank you for choosing my home your advice is priceless. I actually did have the center drapes alone for years but decorated for Christmas last year with emerald green, ivory and gold. Decided to leave the green up….well I guess that was wrong in so many ways. I am in hopes you will address furniture placement with that huge window and a corner fireplace also I am on a Rollator and need paths a little wider for it. I’ve tried many arrangements and always go back to this one because nothing seems to be pleasing. I know YOU have the solution ….help!! Again thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU!!
I love your style of teaching and the real life examples you give. My drapes are short, though, because I hate having to move them to sweep, which I do quite often with dogs. But I think I will raise the rods and make them much wider. Thank you!
I AM taking notes! Thank you so much for explaining the do's and don'ts. Makes so much sense to me now. Love it!
One of my main complaints about TV design shows, especially in the early days, were the skimpy cheap looking window treatments! Or no treatments at all! It hasn’t gotten much better, so it’s wonderful to see someone who is teaching others about the importance and benefits of proper window treatments!
My mom, a home economics teacher, let me contribute to the decorating of my room in our new home when I was eight. I choose lilac as the main color. We chose a pretty solid color bedspread, and managed to find fabric in 1 inch gingham checks which matched perfectly! This was used for the pinched pleat draperies which she made , and lined for stability, accent pillows, and as a skirt for her childhood desk, which became my dressing table. It was adorable, my favorite childhood bedroom, and done on budget! Even my much wealthier friends didn’t have rooms as cute as mine! This is when she taught me about “training” the pleats. You are the first designer/influencer I’ve seen who has mentioned this technique! It makes such a difference!
You would have liked what my mom did in their final home. My parents condo had a very large and long LR/DR with only one window, a slider, on the LR
end. She chose custom draperies made in pale blue silky slubbed fabric which were mounted on a simple brass contemporary rod placed at the ceiling, and the drapes went ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR! They covered the entire wall and looked very elegant at night when closed. During the day when opened, they fully stacked on both sides of the window, SYMETRICALLY! When we were dividing up my parent’s things, my siblings wanted to throw them out🤦🏼♀️😳, but I saved them, and hopefully will be able to use them in my next home, probably re-fashioned into panels. I’m very happy they’re so long!
I’m very happy to see that pinch pleated draperies are making a comeback, either as stationary panels, or full window coverings. Let’s hope that people follow your great advice on how to use and hang
them! They really do add the polish and finish to a great room!
That's awesome hon. Your mom sounds like she made a wonderful impact on your life and how you view design. My mother was much the same :-) I attribute so much of my design acumen to her keen eye and how she made my childhood home beautiful... with very little to work with!
Thanks for sharing your story my friend :-) RR
❤
Often people forget the importance of drapery lining. I have always preferred neutral slubbed linen drapes that were lined. The added weight offers elegant draping, privacy and an element of insulation in cooler or hotter weather. Of course I think pinch pleated drapes never go out of style. Another secret to fine window treatment is the use of weights in the lining of the drape. Thank you for continuing to inspire indoor decor designing!
These videos are so helpful. You really explain things in simple terms. Our homes will be greatly improved from your advice. Thank you.
Thank you so much Rebecca for sharing your design expertise. I'm enjoying the videos and I always learn something new from you. ❤
Great video! I would also love to see a video on window shades. ❤
Rebecca, you are a recent discovery and I am having so much fun and learning a lot. However, you are commenting on the fact that windowtreatments are often too short. I apoligize upfront for sounding like a Suzy Homemaker but they catch dust and are a pain to hoover up. And a lot of people have a pet, those hairs are so tricky to remove from curtain hems. This way ( the too short way ) is so much
faster and easier to clean.
What do you think about big louver Shutters. I live in CO and have them on every window in our house. I combine them with drapes. I have hung drapes almost to the ceiling and they "frame" the shutters so I can open and close the shutters. I also had hubby install dimmer switches recently for our pot lights so they really look nice with the shutters/drapes in the evening! With the cold weather here the shutters work as a great thermal barrier in the winter and with our high elevation they also work to keep the house cooler in the summer when I shut the south side of the house. They are UV and so far they have not faded. They were costly but we love them!
❤ Your talent is like a gift to all those who watch.
WOW!!! WINDOW WONDERFUL WONDERLAND!!! The before and after curtains are very Creative!!! I learned ALOT!!! Many nuggets attained!!! Thank you for all you do pretty lady & have a great day!!!!
I am totally loving this series! I am so grateful for you sharing your knowledge freely for us and how down to earth you are. I am taking a look around my entire house to see what changes I can make based on what you are teaching. Right now I don’t have much else happening in my life so this is the first time I have the freedom to indulge my passion for interior design. Thank you so much, Rebecca!! ❤️
Love these serjes. Your expertise is so valuable. You are the best designer ever.
I love your work! I’ve learned so much from you. Kinda Ben watching your videos and I decided to raise the height of my curtains and move them over opening up my windows. I love it. Thank you so much ❤
Rebecca,
What I have found is many people where I live have 8" ceilings so 84" curtains are to short when you raise your rod higher (which I do) and the next size available are 94-96" which are to long. Custom curtains to some is to expensive. I would love for a manufacture to make 90"length curtains for those of us who have 8' ceilings. Sewing for me is not an option but I am going to try the stich witch so I can get better quality curtains.
I love watching you and Sharrah I have learned so so much. Thanks for sharing all your tips. I'm sorry about your dream house but I just love your house in Tulsa an oh that back yard is stunning.
I am going to train my window treatment! 😊 I love these new posts and their format.
Me too! Love❤ the trained window treatment.
Been holding back on installing window treatments for fear of doing it all wrong. From length, fabric, color, etc. Will you please teach us about curtain rods to choose from? Thank you!
I appreciate and agree with all your window treatment
ideas and comments. We have a large home with a generous size master bedroom. The bay window has lovely custom warm white sheer fabric blinds. As the room overlooks a nice pond, I have just allowed the blinds to be enough at the windows. There are no other windows in the room. As I am doing a few updates I would like to add stationary drapes and looking for the best way to accomplish that. And do I match the blinds or the walls (warm taupe) or…? I usually prefer neutral colors for things that have long life and pops of color with things that are more transient (pillows, decor etc,). Thank you very much for your suggestions! Joanie
I like when you do these videos, they are so interesting! It all makes sense once you point it out.
So glad Maria… that’s my whole point!!! RR
I absolutely LOVE this. This right here is exactly what we all need to hear. I hope you do more of these. Fingers crossed. I want to send my photos in to see what Im doing right or wrong. 👌
I signed up for the free trial of the Design Sessions thinking I could just get through it all and then cancel. I’m on a budget. But there’s so much there! You really go in-depth on these concepts, many sessions are two hours long. So, fine, I can afford $10 a month to learn how to make my house a home. Plus, I will be saving money buying things that won’t really look good any way or last long!
I'm getting ready to move into a new house. I got a lot of ideas and took pics from the model homes I went through. You're video helped too. Thanks!
These are the types of videos you do that I love.
I have been looking for a video like this for a long time. Thank you.
Thanks so much for the window treatment advice. Perfect timing in that we are having windows replaced this week and all treatments must be removed. Will be moving rod up, placing panels to the sides of the window and changing color to coordinate more with the walls. After that, will modify the patio door treatment (in kitchen to the left in picture) to obtain the need for cohesiveness with the living room window as pointed out. Thanks again! 10:49
BTW…this room owner is Cheryl, and not Kildsence! Last name is tricky…not sure how Kildsence came about ha!
Love this, I have been making these mistakes for years. I couldn't figure it out but I knew something was wrong. Thank you.
Thank you, Rebecca. We just purchased a new home and I want the perfect window treatments. I have double story windows.😢
I’ll make sure to follow your advice.
Thank you so much !!
UMBRA,UMBRA, UMBRA!! I love your window treatment videos. My home is small, so boxing in at the top will not work. However, keeping to your idea of taking the window treatment all the way to the top, I found my own version. I found rods on Umbra that curve around to the wall! AWESOME!! Love your videos!!!
What a great idea to hold back the polyester window treatment with paper. I am going to do that right now to eliminate that A-line skirt poof. Thank you for that hack!
Window treatments to the ceiling, high and wide as they say, trending? I’ve been doing exactly this, even shower curtains if needed, for over 20 years. Love this video Rebecca!!!
That is not trendy, that is actual curtains 101 knowledge.
I love the window treatment ideas and agree with all the ideas you illustrated.
One of the most useful videos I have ever watched. Thank you!!
There are great ideas to fix the issue area in the customer's home. It's hard to grasp the customers before and afters on the computer pictures.
Seeing the after picture completed in the home is more visually satisfying & inspiring along with the rearranging of the customer's wall pictures & furniture pieces as a room make over.
Hi Rebecca, can you please advise us on how to properly design living room bay windows? Thanks so much for all your helpful tips!
Oh wow!!! I made mistakes but now I can fix them!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your secrets. It helps immensely!
Love your window treatment advice.
Thank you Rebecca for sharing all this information. I learn so much from you!! God Bless You 😊
You are absolutely right 😂 I was thinking the same on every room
I’m so glad I found your channel! I loved this video and I agree with your advice on how to hand window curtains ! I just love design in general and I truly enjoyed the window suggestions for the Mid century modern windows! I subscribed and I’m going to binge watch! Thanks for all the suggestions.
Great timing on your video about window treatments. Our living/dining room combo had to get new curtains since the ones that were up were disintegrating. That's from years of east west sun damage. I had the hardest time finding curtains that provided a tie in with my gold/beige-y furniture. White, black and black white combo curtains made my furniture look dirty. I finally found a white curtain shot with a gold/beige-y subtle pattern that works. Now I'm trying to tie in the black in the room. And yes, all of my curtains except for one room go to the ceiling. I have had shades, blinds, and vertical window covers. I much prefer functioning sun blocking and room darkening curtains. They really cut the heat gain in our rooms. I am okay if they don't look perfect all of the time. They do what I want and need them to do. I appreciate seeing examples and hearing how to correct so something looks better.
Linda -- not the Linda whose windows appear in this video😊
Thank you for all your knowledge and advise. The right window treatments make the difference.
Rebecca, thank you so much. I have learned so much. I appreciate you and your tips.
Truly the most informative video I've ever watched! So very helpful. You're awesome 😊
The section on hidden storage brought back happy memories. My grandparent's farmhouse, which was built in the late 19th century had hidden storage under the staircase. It could be accessed two ways. One was by removing the second step. The other was through my grandparent's bedroom closet. We were rarely allowed to enter that way. I used to bump down those stairs on my bottom for fun. All of the curtains were lace. After washing and starching my grandmother would stretch them on a wooden frame with lots of nails to dry. Wicked thing that. The old farmhouse is still located about four miles southwest of Guthrie, Oklahoma. Welcome to Sooner Land.
Best opening line…ever. Thanks, great advice as always ❤
Fascinating advice. Thankyou.
Picked up a few great tips. Thank you!
Just discovered your channel. Fantastic tips. I plan to return often. Thank you.
Thanks for this one, Rebecca. My home is MCM and i was planning out the living room for future renos. Now all i need is Lutron roller shades for privacy.
I think sometimes individuals get companies to install window treatments for their homes and 'deal' is for every window to be covered. Windows are so expensive, so why cover up the edges with treatments?!?
I love how you explain the process.
Rebecca, thank you so much! I am going to change a lot in my house.
Love your advice 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 ❤.
OH! How I've missed these kinds of videos.
Thank you SO much for this.
Beautifully done! I love this segment! Keep ‘em commin!!👏🏼 🫶🏻
