Window Treatments


Roman shades – now here is a look I absolutely love, as far as window treatments go my favorite is the roman shade. They come in all different sizes, styles and colors that can go with any type of design of a space and they can be used in any room.  


Drapes – With a variety of colors, patters and fabrics to choose from, drapes are a great finishing touch to any space and really pull together a look.

But remember you don’t always have to use window treatments separately; here is an example of both drapes and roman shades used together as they really pull together this look.
Sheers – another one of my favorites is sheers. They are perfect for any look whether you want a look that’s more modern or more classic, you can find something that works. I personally like them when used in the more elegant designs. The aim of sheers would be keeping privacy while still letting in light that blinds or curtains would normal completely block out. They are extremely useful and would add a designers touch to any space.


Finial - a decorative ornament on the ends of curtain rods or applied to chairs and furniture.
Tie back – make sure that your curtains sit correctly while adding texture and color to a scheme.
Curtain lining - Lining your curtains gives your window treatments a finished look, while at the same time extending the life of your curtains and filtering the amount of light allowed into the room.
