Hi Joe,
You can buy Illuminated ceiling units that would do the job from a seller on eBay UK. Maybe they sell them where you live. Otherwise you would need a socket on the wall near by the place you want the faux window to be. Construct a box with opaque glass or Plexiglass and fit a small under cabinet lighting tube to either up light or down light the inside of the frame. Hang it on the wall. All Pelmet & Curtain AND THERE YOU HAVE IT!
