Bay windows add a sophisticated and stylish touch to any facade, but finding window covering for them may be a bit more difficult than for common windows: They feature 3 panes, therefore common rods aren't useful; standard curtain sizes aren't enough for their larger opening. Bay window curtains feature lots of styles in solid colors and print fabrics. Basically, there are 2 main types of bay window curtains: Those installed over the panels and those installed in the opening of the recess.
If you install bay window curtains directly on the window panes, you can choose Roman curtains with a valance to hide the shades when they are up, rod pocket curtains with poles specifically designed for bay window curtains; or drapes with valances.
