PVC Pipe Window Treatment Style Throwback To 1980’s

PVC Pipe Window Treatments

Do you remember what the 80’s style of window treatments were? What happens when a Master Plumber marries a custom window treatment designer?  A PVC pipe window treatment is born.  PVC, polyvinyl chloride, pipe and elbows become the hardware on the windows of her designs!

Yes, it was quite convenient for our professions to merge but we were following the 80’s style trend of fabric covered 2 1/2″ diameter rods. PVC pipe was much lighter and more cost-effective than large wooden poles.

We use various angle elbows to fit the rods into bay windows.  It is a HOT and trendy window treatment style of the late 1980’s.

Window Treatments 1980’s Style

This Northboro, Massachusetts kitchen bay window featured draped or throw swags wound around PVC pipe that was shirred with fabric………….It was custom and we thought it looked spectacular!

Fess up now, who had a PVC pipe window treatment in their home?

Are your window treatments still hung from plumbing pipes?

25 years later it’s pretty funny.

Thankfully classic and timeless design is the current trend.

Happy Thursday!
