We have a set of windows in our living room that I have no idea how to dress. It's a set of three windows fairly close together with soft shades, not technically a bay but it does curve out a bit. The sofa sits against them.
The prior owners had a swag across all three, which was a little dated looking to me. I don't know that I want to do curtains on them all, as I worry it would look heavy or crowded. It's just kind of boring at the moment. I guess I could replace the shades with roman shades but I don't know if that's a great idea with the kids.
I don't have a good picture of the windows at the moment. I'll take one later.
Ready to rumble.

They're fairly easy and cheap to make yourself if you have the right tools, too.
We have two bay windows with a cornice shade and side treatments on each that we can pull across if we need to for privacy/light control. Works pretty well and I like the look.
I agree, swag looks dated.
