Inverted Box Pleat Window Top Treatment

...or 'Out-of-the-Box Thinking' or 'It's Curtains for You!'

Here's my temporary solution to blocking the suffocating heat and blinding light that our bare eastern windows allow to infiltrate the kitchen every morning.  I also don't like being in a fish bowl at night!  I thought I was pretty clever.  I'm sure the neighbors thought I was just weird, and the delivery guys too - they had to move them out of the way before bringing the washer and dryer in through the sliding glass door.

 Look to the right - you can see how much sunlight
(and imagine how much heat) the boxes were blocking!

There are advantages to this box window
treatment - it's easy to accessorize!
