Now, let's dive into the variety of window treatments available, keeping durability, maintenance, and cost-effectiveness in mind.
Blinds are a classic for a reason. They offer excellent light control through adjustable slats and come in a range of materials.
Shades typically consist of a continuous panel of fabric that can be raised or lowered. They offer a softer look than blinds and can provide superior insulation.
Often considered the "furniture for your windows," shutters offer a classic, upscale look and exceptional longevity.
These fabric treatments offer endless design possibilities, adding softness, texture, and drama to a room.
This is perhaps the most critical aspect to consider, especially if you have young children or anticipate having them visit your home. Corded window treatments pose a serious strangulation hazard to infants and young children.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and the Window Covering Manufacturers Association (WCMA) have implemented strict new safety standards. As of June 1, 2024, most window treatments sold in the U.S. market must be cordless or have inaccessible or short cords.
