Are you looking for window treatments? Have no clue what window treatment is best suited for your window type and window dimensions? We’ll go over some tips on how to choose the best window treatment.

First, let’s start with this: What exactly is a window treatment? A window treatment consists of different elements such as drapes, blinds, or shutters. Each of these elements has got its own purpose and creates shade (drapes and roller shades), blocks light (blinds), or prevents access (shutters).

There are many things you should take into account when choosing window treatments: location of your windows, room color scheme, quality of lighting in the room, and the view direction from inside as well as outside.

Tip 1: Location of your window

As you are about to select window treatments, the first thing you should take into account is your window location in your room. If your window is in a bright spot in the room, choose window treatments that block light – blinds or roller shades. If on the other hand, you have windows with a view overlooking trees or similar it might be worth investing some more money in window treatments that allow some daylight through – shutters would do fine.

Tip 2: Room color scheme

When choosing window coverings, also consider what color they will be once you have chosen them. Window treatment manufacturers supply different colors for their coverings elements so that they match the most popular interior design schemes. You can even find sample paint charts for window treatments on the Internet.

Tip 3: Lighting

When window treatments are in place, you tend to lose all-natural lighting in your room. But this doesn’t mean that you have to work in absolute darkness! Make sure at least one window in your room is facing south or west if possible – southern windows bring in much more daylight than western ones.

Tip 4: Quality of window treatment elements

Before buying window coverings, check their prices and compare them with their quality level. A cheap roller shade can perform pretty poorly when it comes to light blocking capabilities while high-quality drapes made from special fabrics will last much longer compared to cheaper, popular ones made from synthetic fibers. It’s usually worth investing more money into window coverings that are high-quality for last for much longer.

Tip 5: Expert window treatment advice

Last but not least, don’t hesitate to seek window treatment advice from window covering professionals. They will be able to advise you on which window treatments are best for your window type and dimensions and what treatments would look best in your room.

Surely there are more things to consider when choosing window treatments such as what kind of window treatments suit which type of window best or window treatments that go well with different window layouts or window shapes. However, with those tips above is a good start off.
