7 Trendy Window Treatments That Won’t be a Pain

Fall is upon us! Need a new look with your existing window treatments? Let’s see what we can do with our 7 suggestions below:

1. Less is More!

Do you ever hear the phrase “less is more?” This is a perfect line when purchasing window treatments. Long drapey, heavy curtains are out. Clean lines are not only the new trend but also brightens up any space.

2. Wood natural textures are in.

Bamboo, fuax wood, real wood-whatever. Having the inside on the outside brings your look closer to nature and environmently friendly.

3. Go bold or go home!

Big prints give a lot of color and create an amazing focal point in any room. 

4. Go Green: 

Have allergies?  One of the top sellers for people who have allergies and want to create an organic look. Performance fabrics have also gone “green,” with anti-microbial, anti-fungal traits woven into the yarn. Stain-resistant and mildew- and mold-resistant fabrics are also popular picks for allergy sufferers. Even the environmentally conscious will feel right at home with non-toxic dyes on fabrics.

5. Streamline Shades:

Clean lines and contemporary design schemes continue to gain favor. Chunky blinds and over-the-top treatments are being replaced by streamlined styles that neatly roll out of view when raised to maximize incoming light and views.

6. Neutrals still rule:

 “Whites, off-whites and other neutral window coverings almost always work best,” says Lyn Peterson, author, mother of four, HGTV expert, and creative director of Motif Designs in Mount Vernon, New York.  You might change up your paint, furniture, lighting, and fabrics, but will still want safer neutral tones for the windows, to weather your decorating whims. Neutrals doesn’t have to mean boring.  Roman shades and pleated shades come in a wide variety of fabrics and subtly different color tones.

7. Automazation & Motorization

Manually operating your window treatments with a cord or wand is so last year. Smart homeowners upgrade their window treatments to motorization for increased convenience and a sleek cordless appearance at the window. Operate shades with the touch of a button using a smartphone, tablet or remote control..

Trendy, easy and fun. Thanks for listening!
