Crisp Weather Calls for Warmer Solutions

As the temperatures drop in fall, choosing the right window treatments can make a big difference in keeping your home warm and cozy.

Cellular Shades - The Top Choice

The unique honeycomb design of cellular shades traps cold air from the windows, helping to keep your space comfortable. You can pick light-filtering fabrics that let in natural light or choose room-darkening and blackout options for more privacy.

Interior Shutters - Insulation Meets Rustic Charm

Not only do interior shutters help with insulation, but they also add a rustic charm to your home. Their solid build blocks drafts and cold air, keeping your house warm in the fall. Plus, you can easily adjust them to control light and privacy, making them both practical and stylish.

Draperies - Layers Aren't Just for Clothes

Drapes are great for insulation in the fall because their thick fabric blocks cold air and keeps warmth inside. When you layer them with sheer curtains, you can let in natural light while adding an extra barrier against drafts, making your home cozy and stylish.

Added Liners

Adding liners to woven wood shades and Roman shades is a great way to insulate your home in the fall. The extra layer of fabric helps block cold air and keeps warmth inside, making your space cozier. Plus, liners allow you to maintain the beautiful texture of the woven wood shades and Roman shades while keeping your home warm.

Bonus: Set the Mood with Warm Hues

When it comes to decorating for fall, selecting window treatments in warm hues like red, orange and brown can make your space feel cozier. These colors create a warm palette that brings a sense of comfort and warmth into your home. A rich red or a soft orange can brighten up your room and make it feel inviting, especially as the days get shorter and cooler.
