Correctly measuring your windows.
Do you have floor-to-ceiling windows? Do you have a bunch of windows making up one large window? Or are there a few windows on each wall? Whatever the shape, it is essential to have the exact measurements of each window you will be decorating. It is necessary to note the distance between the top of the window to the ceiling. Also, measure the bottom of the window down to the floor. Not sure how to correctly measure windows? Contact our design team and set up an in-home consultation.
Types of window treatments
Once you have your measurements, you can now decide on the type of window treatment to use. Shades and shutters offer more privacy options and cover just the window. Drapes and curtains allow more room for style and can pull the entire theme of the room together. The fabric can be customized to match pillows or furniture. Draw in colors from an area rug. There are also combination options. For example, a cornice and woven blinds offer privacy and style. A balloon valence paired with drapes adds romance to a dining room. You can go simple with solid-colored vertical drapes. Modern drapery adds elegance while giving your dining room a chic treat.
