Favorite Fabrics for Window treatments

I am definitely a big believer that no room is complete without window treatments. I really don't like fussy, swags and jabots but instead I always opt for tailored, timeless and classic panels. The great thing is that panels are one of the most inexpensive ways to dress a window. Ideally, I like stationary panels that will keep your view open. But what about privacy? Well that's why it is important to layer your window treatments.

The first layer can be blinds, shutters, natural woven wood shades, fabric roman shades, designer roller shades, honeycomb or silhouettes (and the list goes on and on). The purpose of the fist layer is to provide privacy. They are usually mounted inside the window casings and have to be functional where they open and close with ease. Motorization has become a popular way to open and close window treatments, especially on really high windows.

Then there is the second layer - window panels. of course these can be made into functional panels as well, where they can be pulled to cover the windows. But I don't recommend making them functional unless that is needed to completely block light. Non-functional or stationary panels can be just as dramatic and beautiful.

This opens up a range of options like fabric type, pleat option, lined or unlined, interlined, finished length, rod or grommets.

Of course the overall style of the room and function are to be considered when making these choices. faux silks, cottons, linen blends and even linens are some of the inexpensive but good value fabrics that you can choose to dress up your windows.

Now for a limited time, we are running a promotion for a pair of lined, pinched pleat panels up to 108" for just $299. Available in any of the fabrics listed below.

It's a great time to get the window treatments you've always dreamed of.
