As the grass grows and the flowers bloom, why not consider window treatments that let in that glorious sunshine and enhance the ambiance of your room? The right window treatments can make your space feel refreshed and cheerful and less stuffy and stale after a long, dreary winter. They certainly add color and style, and many window treatments can even save you money on your summer and winter energy bills.
Consider changing up your window treatments with one of the great options below.
Soft Sheers
Sheer draperies are the perfect no-fuss solution for letting in the natural light and offering a little bit of privacy. They provide an elegant soft look while filtering out just the right amount of light. And, sheer draperies allow for adding color in the room as they come in beautiful soft shades of all colors. Think further than white and cream, choose a color that complements the design of the room. Bedrooms and formal dining rooms that need a refresh are the perfect places to use soft sheers.
Roman Shades
If you are looking to make a real statement with your new window treatments, roman shades are a great choice. This option can provide a spectacular focal point in the room, and act as one of the major design elements. Roman shades are ideal for rooms that get intense sunlight that needs blocking at certain times of the day. The choice of fabrics for roman shades is endless, just be sure to choose a fabric that will not fade in the sun, and most importantly, make sure that they include a lining that has excellent UV protection qualities.
Roman shades come in a variety of styles and designs, and, for a bit of an up-charge, you can even have them motorized. Because roman shades can be designed for a very formal, or very casual look, they are perfect for any room in your home.
Wood Blinds
Maybe your style is more minimalistic, and you want to steer clear of curtains. Wood blinds are a classic approach to window treatments, and they work with virtually any style of décor. Wood blinds can add a horizontal dimension to the room and either blend in with the surrounding window trim or become a statement all on their own. They are also one of the most functional blinds available as they have the ability to block a little bit, or a lot of sunlight. Another benefit of a wood blind is keeping your home comfortable in the summer heat and certainly saving on your cooling bills.
Wood blinds come in many shades of white and wood colors, and some manufacturers will even custom-match them to any paint color that your heart desires. Wood blinds can turn a traditional kitchen into a beachside bistro or give your blah bedroom a cozy cottage feel.
Choosing the right kind of window treatments for your space can be an intimidating task, especially when you are not familiar with the many, many types that are available.
