The exotic hand painted Cheetah brackets and scarfholders from the C.W. Kirsch Signature Series Buckingham Collection creates a fun and leisurely atmosphere. The pleated shade gently diffuses light to create an inviting and restful place to relax with the latest best-seller.

A hot, relaxing bath is worry-free with Hunter Douglas WoodMates[TM], a brand new alternative to traditional wood blinds. Fade-free and warp-free, these practical yet extremely attractive blinds are ideal for areas of high humidity because of their advanced composite construction.

A long, leisurely soak in a soothing bubblebath is guaranteed to eliminate the worries of the day. Duofold shades from Comfortex provide the perfect backdrop in this master bath by maintaining privacy while still allowing for enjoyment of natural light and the view. Fabrics and components are unaffected by moisture and are washable to remain clean, crisp and bright.

This intimate and relaxing setting is ideal for a cozy conversation, and made even more inviting with delicate flower shades made using döfix Roman shade tape RF (transparent iron-on) or RFK (iron-on then sewn on). For different looks, the Flower shades can be fabricated with or without adding horizontal fullness. Banding on the shades was applied using döfix Fortenfix iron-on hemming tape. dofix
