If you’re ready to start buying window coverings for your home, you’re in for an exhilarating time! No too long ago, we shared details of the in-home design consultation process. Now, let’s take a closer look at all of the options that are available to you so you can be even more informed as you make decisions.
#1 What “Blinds” Really Mean
When you hear the word “blinds,” what comes to mind? While the term is commonly used to describe various window covering products, each style has unique features. Taking a moment to understand the differences between all the options—whether you’re considering draperies, shutters, shades, or blinds—can help you make a more informed decision and find the perfect window treatment for your home.
#2 Get to Know Features
There is a definite chance that window coverings have changed since you last bought them.

#3 Jumping on the Roller Shades Bandwagon
Roller shades are all the rage with homeowners today. They are fascinated with the rolling operation of these treatments. However, it is not limited to just your traditional roller shades. New innovations have brought desired functions to various types of window shades. The functionality allows them to roll up into the headrail and disappear from view. With products ranging from architectural roller shades, to romans that truly roll, you can pinpoint the details and finishes that best reflect your personal taste.
#4 The Affordability of Automatic Blinds
Motorized window coverings are an excellent choice if you value convenience in your daily life. We encourage you to ask questions and learn more about how these can seamlessly integrate into your home. When exploring window coverings, we’ve found that motorized shades and blinds are among our most popular options. Fortunately, the cost of automatic window blinds has decreased in recent years. If fully automating your home with the touch of a button is currently out of reach due to cost, there are ways to find a balance between your budget and your needs. The good news is that we are here to help with that!
#5 Comfort Over Everything
We all value a comfortable environment. Lighting and temperature play a key role in this. Did you know that these two factors can be a direct result of the window coverings you pick for your home? Some of our Hunter Douglas products have the qualities of thermal window shades. This means that they do a great job of protecting the interior of your home from heat, as well as harsh light and glare.
