Portieres, or Door Curtains, for Houses 1900–1940

Practically, this drapery hung in doorways to stop drafts (and dampens sound) between rooms—but portieres also offer a romantic, inviting transition by softening doorways. Most were frequently made from tapestry to match the wall hangings and give some decorative cohesion to the room, but portieres might also be made of strung beads, tassels and decorative cording, even seashells (for your beach bungalow). They remain an appropriate accent for the Arts & Crafts home today.

Home Tour: Dottebob Andes

One of the many highlights of my book tour was visiting my sweet friend, Dottebob Andes, in her chic Philadelphia-area home. Prior to my visit, I was aware that Dottebob and I had a lot in common, especially our shared love of "the classics". (That would be classic décor, not classic literature- although perhaps we have similar taste in books, too.) Like me, Dottebob, who is a well-regarded decorator, has an appreciation for bright colors (especially blue and coral), prints, Chinoiserie, and…

Decorating With Portieres........Drapes For Your Doorways
