Your room says a lot about you, so it’s valuable to fill it with elements that speak to your style. A room’s window treatments can make a bold and powerful statement that immediately grabs guests’ attention.
When choosing the right window treatment to complete your room, it’s essential to decide what kind of atmosphere you are attempting to create. It’s important to ask yourself how you want others and yourself to feel while they are in the space. Recognizing what kind of mood you are creating will help you know what type of window treatments that will help you enhance its overall design.
Classic and Elegant
If you have a large space to decorate, a classic and elegant look is a great option. It allows you to select bigger and multiple window treatments and create a luxurious space. Classic and elegant styles also allow you to have fun with what you add. Long drapes, ruffles, and high windows are statement pieces that completely add an elegant feel to the room without you having to do a whole lot more to the rest of the space. Consider these window treatment options when creating a classic and elegant space:
- Floor-to-ceiling drapes
- Silky drapes
- Frills and ruffled drapes
- Balloon shades
- High windows
- Gold, metallic, and metal rods
Warm and Cozy
If the space you are styling is smaller, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere will make the most of it. Warm and cozy is particularly great for a bedroom and will make it a much more comfortable space. A lot of what makes a room warm results from lighting. Window treatments allow you to control how much light you allow in your room and create its mood. These window treatments will instantly make your bedroom more comfortable:
- Shutters
- Room darkening curtains
- Neutral Colored Curtains
- Layering curtains and blinds
Vibrant and Bold
If your room is lacking some energy, brighten it up by choosing vibrant and bold window treatments. This is an easy way to spice up your room because colors and patterns are stand out changes to a space that allow you to do very little while still making a big impact. Choosing a statement window treatment can turn even the simplest and most plain rooms into lively and inviting spaces. Add any of these window treatments to easily turn a simple space into an exciting one:
- Patterned and printed curtains
- Bright colored curtains
- Roman shades
- Chevron curtains
Fresh and New
If you want to make your room more relaxing, you will want to select window treatments that are simple and modern. Keeping it simple is essential when making your room fresh and new. Limit the amount of color and types of treatments you add. By simply adding sheer curtains with a white curtain rod, the room will have a fresh and clean look. Try adding these window treatments to your space to keep the room looking simple yet aesthetically pleasing.
- Sheer curtains
- Matchstick blinds
- Valances
- Slider windows
- Bay and bow windows
- White rods
Whether you are designing a brand new space or just looking to spice up your room, window treatments allow you to significantly enhance the overall design. It can be as simple as choosing curtains with a bold pattern to add a pop of color to a boring room or as extravagant as adding high windows with ceiling-to-floor drapes. Either way, your window treatments are creating an atmosphere. Think about your space and the mood you want to create, and then choose the window treatment that’s right for you!
