Spring Crest Drapery

Did you know that the slats on most Venetian blinds are adjustable and can be arranged both vertically and horizontally? This makes them perfect for both wide-set windows as well as sliding glass doors, as they can be set to the side instead of atop the window as in other blind types.

When it comes to choosing window treatments, there are a wide range of materials, fabrics, and textures available. This includes everything from aluminum and wood to fabric treatments made of soft or sheer fabrics.

Are you looking for an easy way to spruce up your window treatments? Consider accentuating the fabric with trim, cords, tassels, or fringe to give your windows a finished look.

When choosing a window blind or shade, select a color that matches your window trim in a neutral or subtle way. A good rule of thumb to remember is that your window blind or shade should lend color to your room, but it should not decide it.

Do you want a window treatment that will mesh with the furnishings and design already in a room? Experts say that does not require a repeat of the same color in the walls and furniture. Instead, try colors that are slightly darker than what is generally in the room. This will create a blended effect that can be quite attractive.
