 While
redecorating a room can seem overwhelming, a good place to start
might be by focusing on the window treatments. Imagine what sort
of mood you want your home to convey. Do you want an airy look?
Would you rather have a warm, cozy look? Do you want it to be romantic
or elegant?
Since windows come in so many shapes and sizes, there are just
as many types of window treatments to use on them. One great benefit
of a well-designed window treatment is that should you decide to
put your house on the market, well-designed windows will up the
value as prospective buyers gaze on in admiration.
Keep in mind also that another great benefit is the potential that
a window treatment has for conserving energy. You might want to
block the sun out of a bedroom, while taking advantage of the sunlight
in a family room.
· Sheer window shades allow you to control light levels
and privacy and help soften the look of your home. In addition,
you can choose sheers with light-filtering or room-darkening options.
· For parents concerned about kids becoming entangled in
window shade cords, there are a number of cordless options that
are beautiful, stylish and safe.
· If you love the idea of wood blinds, but not the warping,
cracking or fading that goes along with them, think about engineered
or faux wood.
· Look for vertical blinds that are energy efficient, use
soft fabrics and operate without the use of bottom weights and chains.
· Consider roman or roller shades. Both combine the operating
benefits of a window shade with the subtle textures and patterns
of drapery style fabric.
