Changing your window treatments can completely alter the look and feel of your living space. It can also be much less expensive to change your window treatments rather than your furnishings when you want to update the look of your room. To create a fresh look for your setting, consider the following window treatment upgrades.

Measurement and Installation

One of the most difficult parts of decorating windows is the measurement and installation process. Your contractor can easily handle this part of the task. You’ll need to select the materials you want to employ for your window treatment, but your contractor can install them to perfection and has the tools for the job. Shades and their accompanying hardware need to have an accurate measurement or the installation can become a nightmare. Additionally, hardware for draperies must be fastened with care or it could loosen, fall, and even damage your wall’s plaster or paint job.

Getting Organic

If you’d prefer your window treatment upgrade to take an eco-friendly route, consider using organic materials for the job. Bamboo shades are a popular green trend with staying power. Sleek, stylish, and durable, bamboo is known for its durability as well as its inherent beauty. If you are looking to replace vinyl blinds, bamboo is a smart and sustainable option that’s perfect for kitchens, living rooms, and bedrooms. In addition, bamboo plays well with a myriad of decorative styles, so you can count on its versatility when adding it to your home.

Sleek Lines

When it comes to today’s most stylish window treatments, less is definitely more. Designers are promoting window treatments with clean, sleek lines. Rather than layer upon layer of curtain and drapery, designers are embracing less busy configurations. If you do opt for a single layer of draperies and need to remove hardware and valences, your contractor can easily patch any screw or nail holes that appear after their removal.

Energy Efficient

Black-out and thermal drapes and curtains are immensely popular in all parts of the country owing to their potential to enhance the home’s energy efficiency. The great thing about these draperies is that they can block out the sun’s ultraviolet rays and prevent them from heating up your interior. In cold climates, they can help prevent draughts and help maintain a warm and cozy environment. Black-out draperies are available in a myriad of styles and colors, so shoppers should have no trouble finding sets that will complement their décor.

Luxury Fabrics

Finally, to give your windows a posh makeover, opt for luxurious fabrics like velvet or silk. You can choose simple or bold patterns, jewel tones, or pastel shades. High-quality fabrics have a way of uplifting the decorative appeal of the entire setting. Since upscale fabrics are pricier than other options, consider using online tools or apps to help you see how a window treatment will look before you place your order.

New window treatments can enliven your setting and create a brand new look for your home. Don’t forget to pay attention to trends in window treatment hardware too. You’ll definitely want to select rods and curtain pull-backs that reflect the aesthetic appeal of your room.
