I have a window in our small dining area done like that, the onesided panel.

I like it. I like any treatment that welcomes the outdoors, indoors. In my previous home, all second floor window treatments hung from midpoint of window allowing privacy AND sunshine through the top part of window. No valances. 

 

My newer, patio home has zero window treatments. modern blinds

I like this room, in spite of it being moody and dark.  I think the curtains compliment this particular setting.

I like it.  The curtains are a very popular with that particular style of home.  The plaid, the early Americana look.  I've seen them in magazines featuring early Americana.  So, I can see using them.  I wonder if it's an 1800's home or a newer build meant to look that way?  Anyway, it's all nice.

I like the room and love the cabinet but would have pulled the drapes the opposite way to give it a more open  look...away from the cabinet.

If it were my home I would not have those heavy print drapes at all.

The curtains work in this room.

 

I love this dining room and wouldn't change a thing.  The owner's furniture and assessories are perfect for this house.

A perfect style for a period room.  The whole room has lovely colors.

I never had  thought about it until now, but I have my panels in my dining room pulled in that same direction on each side of the China cabinet ; I do this because I have a better view  this way.  

 

I think this room looks very cozy  and I like the beams  and  fireplace rock.  But not sure about the gold on the fireplace and  the gold picture.  It does flow with all the other trim work on the baseboards etc.  I guess it  works here .
