Tips for Decorating Windows

Ok so you just moved into a new home and you’ve started to notice that your windows look a little barren. Time to cozy them up. Custom window treatments can really help to make your house feel like a home. And what better way to show off some of your personal flair? But, decorating and finding the right styles for a room can be costly and time consuming. They don’t have to be though. Let’s go over some quick and simple ideas for decorating those barren windows in a breeze.

Long and sheer – Nothing is as luxurious feeling as sheer fabric on your windows, especially if you give them great length to pool on the floor. Find a nice sheer or gauzy fabric that you can hang from high up, allowing the long, flowing panels to sweep down to the floor. Another cool thing about sheer, it provides privacy while still letting in desirable natural light.

Think about color – They say that bright, warm colors like reds, yellows and oranges evoke a hominess and sense of creativity. Cooler colors, like blues, purples and greens give off a sense of calmness and relaxation. Light greens and blues are very reminiscent of nature and are very clean and soothing. Purple is said to give off a regal effect, especially darker purples. Keep these color theories in mind when picking the colors to redecorate with. What type of mood do you want each room of your home to have?
