i stayed up all night last night hanging a curtain rod on the smaller window, moving the narrower curtains over there, and putting a double rod on the big window with wider curtains in the same color plus lighter sheer curtains on the back rod. the curtains i had up before just weren’t wide enough, and without blinds there was really no way to let light in without also giving everyone outside a free tour of my living room.
i’m not sure if this is just one of those changes that takes time to get used to, if i picked the wrong color for the sheers, or if i should have just left everything alone. part of me thinks the sheers should be a little more off-white, more like the color of the nugget chunk i’m currently using as an ottoman.
i’m definitely not done decorating in here yet. i still have a rug to put down once the baby playpen is set up, and eventually i’m adding more pillows with sage and maybe rust accents, plus a small leather recliner, a floor lamp, and a large floor mirror. so this is not the final form.
please talk me off the ledge before i take the curtains down from the small window, remove the double rod, and undo all the work i just did because i’ve stared at it for too long.

I personally like the curtains on both windows! I wouldn’t take them down. I think having 2 sets on the big window looks great
Looks great!
I would also consider adding shears to the small window as well.
You stayed up all night to hang the rod? How many more sleepless nights will it take to decide if you picked the wrong colors?
You definitely created a new problem, just not the one you thought you did.
