Is it time to replace your window coverings? If they’re worn, damaged or dated, it’s probably time to start “window” shopping for something new. The good news is that now more than ever there are endless styles and colors to choose from. Find the right window treatment by considering your various options.
Determine Your Style — Take a look at your decor and decide if a traditional or more modern style of window coverings would suit your home. Nowadays window coverings come in a wide variety of finishes, colors and styles.
Choose Your Material — Determine what type of material fits your budget and maintenance preferences. Options include fabric, vinyl, aluminum, wood and even faux wood. You could frame your windows with curtain panels, opt for pleated or Roman shades, hang asymmetric swags, or mount horizontal or vertical wooden shutters.
Assess Your Functional Preferences — Think about your light control and privacy concerns. For example, you may require blackout blinds for a media room or bedrooms but not for the less private areas of your home where sunlight is welcome.
Choose Custom or Off-the-Shelf — Decide if you want to go with custom window coverings that are manufactured to fit the interior dimensions of your windows, or if an off-the-shelf window treatment will suit your needs.
Consider Energy Efficiency — Think about your heating and cooling needs. Cellular shades help regulate heat loss or gain in addition to controlling the light. If you’re likely to forget shade adjustment as a means of temperature regulation, consider upgrading to motorized shades.
