DIY Window Cornice, Quick And Easy

Good morning, I wanted to take a minute to write about window cornices. I decided to make one for my daughters room since she has a day bed going directly under the window and curtains are not an option. I want a look that's nice but a fabric that is a bit different and on the modern side. Total assembly for me was about a half hour once I had all my supplies. I haven't assembled it to the window yet so I don't have the finished product but I have some pictures of the fabric and the process and I must admit that I  LOVE IT!

Here is the start of me wrapping the wood with a thick felt for padding and then the fabric stapling along the edges.

Here are all three pieces put together in what will be a box above the window.

Here is the fabric that I chose from Joanne's, but I waited for it to go on sale for 50% off! I'm smooth like that.I tried to find it elsewhere but it was really hard to come by and almost sold out on me.

I will show you a step by step tutorial and the finished results once I have them, but in the mean time here are some inspirational rooms that have a cornice so that you can get a better idea.

As you can, see they can really make a room. Please share your cornice with me if you've done one or use this as your inspiration~
