Like the high-end look of Cornice board window treatments, but not quite in the price range for custom made decor right now? A great tipsheet posted on the DIY Network's website makes building your own cornice board pretty easy. Don't forget to dress up your windows with shades or drapes from Gordon's when you're finished!
Professional cornice boards can really run up the price of a planned window overhaul, but you can put your money and savings towards where it counts most - insulation of your windows - and cut your costs by up to $200 per window by putting in a little elbow grease.
These tips suggest having plywood cut to size at the hardware store, using crown moulding and fabric to enhance the cornice style, and sizing the board at 1/5 the full length of the drapes.
Gordon's Window Decor can help you with complimentary fabrics for the drapes and cornice covering so stop by the Essex showroom soon!
