Window Treatments

With so many options to choose from, finding the perfect window treatments can be tricky. To help you decide, first look at the style of your current space and establish a budget. When you narrow down which window coverings fit your criteria, consider the size and shape of the windows, as well as factors out of your control, such as sunlight. Read more about these decisions below to be well equipped to pick out new window treatments.

Let sunlight determine the right window coverings.

Depending on which direction a wall faces, each room gets different levels of sunlight throughout the day. Because of this, it’s best to purchase your window treatment based on the amount of natural light you actually want. If the room tends to be darker, try sheer curtains that offer a decorative touch but still let through plenty of sunshine. If a space gets blasted with brightness, go for thicker drapes or blackout blinds that will block light, reduce noise and help regulate temperatures. Don’t be afraid of layering various curtains and window treatments for more control and flexibility over natural lighting. Mixing textures and colors and adding a valance or cornice will create a custom, pulled-together look.

Embrace custom window treatments.

If you have windows that are not a typical size or shape, like arched or bay styles, your best bet is to go for custom window treatments. Professionals can create curtains, blinds or any other window treatment you desire that properly fit your exact dimensions. Going this route might cost a little extra, but it will save you the headache of hunting around for something that kinda-sorta fits. You’ll thank yourself when you see how well the final results turn out.
