Their home was burned to the ground. Can you imagine shopping at your local Target store and getting a call as you come out, hearing fire and police sirens off in the distance. The phone, oh yes, get the cell phone, it is your neighbor calling to say your home is on fire, in fact nearly burnt to the ground now! The fencing, the pool decking, hot tub, house, a car in the drive and tragically the two family dogs, are gone. Best news, no human family members at home, hubby, the children, your sister and husband, all safe, because they were NOT at home.
All the cornices are 15" high. Shirley had the ceilings raisedjust over a foot, so they look great. Catch the close-up. Pleats, I had not seen such great pleats in any so far. I had made one myself, but not near as good-looking as these. The medium weight Jacard fabric is easy to work with, very professional look.
The guest bedroom, first down the hall to the left. This cornice is very similar to the living room, pleats with cords embellishing the center segment. Neutral colors for the greatest design flexibility. The top and bottom fabric is a faux suede. Very elegant, very nice. It will be appropriate for years to come and many different color combinations.
Now last but not least is the Kitchen. As with all their cornices, the kitchen one is 15" high, pleats and cords.

Shirley and family had a modest home, but one they had for more than 20 years! Lots of memories for her grown children and all the family. Now they are gone and the rebuilding begins. It took more than 6 months, but now it stands big and beautiful, new and ready to start filling with more memories. In the original home Shirley had beautiful window cornces made and decorated by hers and her sisters hand, customzied for each room. The new home was going to have them again. She found Window Bonnets and the styrofoam based cornice kits they used the first time. We had them in stock and since I was in Phoenix, I personally delivered her order for six windows to her rental home. I got the tour of the new home and the details of their experience.
Her sister was there to help with the cornice assembly and decoration, the day I delivered the kits, they had just purchased the last of the material. Their cornices are beautiful. I took these pictures during their open house celebration. So many neighbors, friends and strangers helped them in their time of need. This was their way of saying "thank you."
Take a look, the open house was days before they started moving in so there is no furniture, but I think you will easily admire the design, workmanship and beauty.

This bedroom is designed for a baby's room, the playful color combo of blue and lavender and the eyelet lace design also gives it that "fun" appeal.
Shirley's master bedroom also sports pleats in the center, with contrasting cords at the top and bottom. Shirley's sister is truly the master of pleating.
Now last but not least is the Kitchen. As with all their cornices, the kitchen one is 15" high, pleats and cords.
