how to decorate this LR?

42 inch TV with oval glass top stand. Will you put the TV in the corner shown or on the wall where the plug is?



This is the view as you walk in the front door:

I would center it on the wall. I don't really care for furniture in corners and on angles. It wastes space, and you'll almost never see it if you look in a decor magazine.

Agreed. That is a cool room. I like it.

Thanks! So let's talk about curtains! Should I put a long curtain rod across the wall for all 3 windows or put 3 separate ones? I am not even sure what the maximum length the curtain rod are available. I have teal blue curtains which are pretty dark so the blue wall will have to be repainted.

I have my TV on an angle in my LR. It helps shorten the space which is 27' long. It also avoids the glare from windows during the day and at sunset.

For the windows- do you need to cover or just decorate them?

I did a client window treatment for a similar 3 window set up a few years ago. Long cuffed panels in coordinating fabric with ties hung from a set of 3 pegs at each window. Her other window in the dining end of the area was a French door. We made similar panels and hung them from rings on a heavy wodden rod. I was really happy with the finished look.

Loooove those windows!

I would do a custom rod using pipe from the hardware store and make it span the length of all the windows and hang six panels.

I would run one rod across the wall. Either make your own like the PP said with pipe, or rig together two store bought ones to look like an ultra long one.

Yeah, check out Boiler's sunroom picture in the bio board.
