With a crazy weekend and week ahead of me, I am in a super hurry to get my apartment decor all put together...
I have a wedding this weekend, guests that I am hosting and so many events next week for fashion week, my calendar is looking like a coloring book. Sigh.
So one of my personal necessities is to finish my windows (they are the eyes of the home, no?)
I have beautiful drapes that hang and cover my windows, but I am absolutely in love with the tailored look of beautiful cornice boxes to match. So polished and glam...which must mean I need to have one too. I think my favorite are the ones with really fabulous trim and detail, don't you guys agree?

You don't have to convince me, I love cornices and valances ! I say go for it ......
I love the cornice boxes in your inspiration photos. I think it all depends on the size of the room and/or the height of your ceilings. If you have a smaller room and low ceilings, I think it might make it look cramped. However, if you have height and space, I say GO FOR IT!

I'd say they're not essential, the slightly "unfinished" look gives a nice touch. Character. It's doesnt need to be abolutely perfect, just perfect enough.

p.s I'm sure your week will be amazing. Good luck.
I love the flowier ones without the hard edges. Never seen a cornice box before, not big in Ireland apparently
so pretty! I love a nice cornice and the more trim the yummier! Happy Weekend!
Girl I bet you apartment will look fabulous, love the idea of using the cornice boxes!

From the look of your posts, I think the cornice box totally fits your style. It's elegant and frames tall windows so well! Have a great weekend
I saw Mariska Meijers writing about you... so I thought let me see who is the Decorista ;)
I'm definitely go for the second design!
Simple but elegant

I just moved into a new place and we're dying to get rid of the weird blinds and put in some curtains. I'm LOVING the cornice boxes!
