I'd do bamboo blinds to start. I like the room very much as is.

If you fall in love with bedding or a rug, then let that dictate the soft part of the window treatments.

How lovely!

I love everything about your room, especially the contrast between the white walls and the darker wood furnishings and floor. If you want to keep the look clean lined, I would probably use inside mounted shades made of either a fabric that is close in color to your trim or of bamboo or wood. You could even do a top down/bottom up option.

I would do plantation shutters. That way, you can close the bottoms for privacy at night but keep the tops open so you can see the sky. They're also nice looking!

Love the arts&craft closet door.

Although, plantation shutters might not work on a 3-panel window.

Top-down blinds, like in fun2BHere's bottom pic? I have them in one of my bedrooms for privacy purposes. They're nice looking.

Or, if you like the plantation shutters you can put them on just the bottom windows, for privacy and style, and have two for all three windows.

Maybe also paint the door white to match the rest of the woodwork. It would also make the brick behind it look great!

(white fan? Although fan can go with your wood furnishings)

I cannot open these pictures...looks like they just take me to the photobucket page....

Sorry, joaniepoanie. I am posting from my phone and they appear embedded in the post to me. We haven't been able to get internet at home (!!!) because the local provider is "capped out" (ugh!) so I don't have a way to check how it looks on anything other than my phone. I will upload the three pictures I included directly to this post and the next two. Hope that works. Thanks for looking!

And thanks to everyone else, too! I have some follow-up questions to your suggestions but will have to come back in a bit for those. Thanks again!

Lovely room!!! :)

Yes -- another vote for bamboo blinds (perhaps look for lined ones) with panels -- which could be simple fresh white sheers for the cooler months -- and heavier linen ones for the cooler months.
The current furniture and bedding really does suit the room at this time -- so perhaps could be used in a guest room in the future?? What kind of décor do you like?

I'm having trouble uploading these...

Last one from above:

You could use a draw drapery treatment so that it is closed at night and open during the day. All it requires is a traverse rod and drapery. As for the photo, I'd place it in the bedroom. It looks like you have several walls that would be suitable. As stated by others, blinds would also look great. I love your style.

I like room darkening roller shades and a valance over top to hide them. I would do just a valance and a chain driven shade in the nook. I would do the valance with one panel on each side of the bed, drawn to the side away from the bed for an asymmetrical treatment.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions! Before anything was in the room, I thought shades of some kind inside the window would look right but I wasn't sure. Your ideas have been very helpful!
One of the things I don't understand about bamboo shades (and shutters) is where to get them? Do you mean the kind they have at lowes? Or is there a better place to get them? What if I wanted shades that match the trim? Where do you get those? I had looked at places like pottery barn, but their offerings didn't seem to fit my windows.
Also, I was thinking I needed to switch the duvet at the foot of the bed with one that had white/cream in the pattern. Ideally, I wanted to find something with green and white since I've used that a lot elsewhere in the house and like the look of crisp green and white with white walls and warm wood. But so you think that not having browns in the pattern (like I have now) will make the wood seem too stark of a contrast? Or would it work? I will include a picture of a pillow I have on my couch with the shade of green I am envisioning. However, I haven't seen a duvet like this, so if anyone has, please share. :)
Lastly, don't you think I need something else in the bump out? Chair(s)? Something else? I don't know what to do there.
Thanks again!
And here's the picture of my couch pillow that I was thinking of finding a similarly toned duvet for the foot of the bed:

Actually that picture makes the green look darker than it is. Let me try again...
I think this one is a little more accurate:
