We have faux-wood blinds (that we never close) and a valance across the tops. My mom and I made the valances in our main living area.

@PurplePeony: We are also going with solar shades for a more contemporary look. I plan on getting them online and have a professional install them - i think you can cut costs that way!

We have cellular shades in white that you can pull top down or bottom up so we can retain privacy but still let sunlight in.

We have 2.5" faux wood white blinds throughout the house. On the main window in our family room, I have white curtains. I'm pretty boring.

When I moved in, there were mini blinds or roman shades on most of the windows and doors. But I'm pretty sure they're original to the house because the cords started just falling apart (like dry rot)
In our living room, I sewed curtains that we keep closed all the time. the afternoon sun shines directly in and bakes anyone in that room, so we don't feel the need to open them often (the only time I do is if I want to watch a storm)
We have mini blinds and a valance in the kitchen. Our bedroom has roman shades, and then sheer curtains from Ikea over them (that are also always closed)

We have curtains in the living room. All the other rooms in the house, except the playroom, which off the living room, have wood blinds. I wish they went to the floor but oh well.
Am I the only one reading this thread wondering wth muntins are? At first I thought it was an auto correct thing.
