Style is the fun part of window treatments. Here is where you can choose fabrics, colors, and
styles that will add to the beauty and enjoyment of your room. Add interest to windows by repeating
fabrics and colors used in other parts of your room. Or, add a dash of style with contrasting borders,
cordings, or fringe. The unique touches you add to your window treatments are a reflection of your personal style.
Consider these possibilities:
- Fabric Shades are found in flat Roman style, balloon, Austrian, bottom arched, pleated, and flat panels, in sheers or coordinating fabrics.
- Wood Blinds come in a variety of colors, finishes, slat sizes, and
tape colors. Some are made without the typical cord holes in each slat
for a cleaner look. Ask about choices for header designs and cord control
options too.
- Cellular Shades, also called pleated and honeycomb shades, have a clean
look and come in both sheer and non-sheer materials. Some styles have
eliminated the cord hardware, some have loop controls, and most have
some insluating qualities.
- Natural Blinds are also called matchstick or bamboo blinds, but are available now in matchsticks, sewn slats, and other options that have a natural fabric-like appearance. You'll find options for valances, roll or fold up operation, edge binding, and privacy liners
Whatever your preference for window treatments, you're sure to find many options to meet your home's requirements for privacy, light control, function, and style.
