While it may not seem like something to get excited about,\ntaking the time to explore your window treatment options can open up your home\nto a world of stylish possibilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below are some of the most common window\ntreatments that are worth considering for your next home decoration project:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Interior Shutters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Shutters reached the height of their\npopularity back when glass windows had not yet been developed. They continued\nto be popular when glass was finally utilized for <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Window\">windows<\/a>\nbut was still too expensive (and needed added protection). However, interior\nshutters fell out of the public\u2019s favor during the Victorian era when draperies\nbecame all the rage. But even back then, interior shutters were typically made\nof wood and came in different styles, from solid panels to louvered shutters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kravelv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/whosaleshutter1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11341\"\/><figcaption> <br><em>Paint or stain them. Either way, interior shutters are charming.<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, interior shutters made of poly, which\nis a more durable material that requires less maintenance than real wood, are\nnow available. If you\u2019re considering getting interior shutters for your home,\nit\u2019s worth noting that there are three main types of available shutters:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Plantation\nShutters. <\/strong>With an extremely versatile look,it\u2019s not difficult to see why\nplantation shutters are the most widely used among the three. Whether you paint\nthem or stain them to retain their natural look, plantation shutters will look\ngreat for your home, whether you\u2019re inside looking out or outside looking in.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Cottage\nShutters. <\/strong>Cottage shutters look like they came straight\nout of a fairy tale, with designs that are both practical and aesthetically\npleasing. Cottage shutters are popular on the East Coast, as homeowners in that\narea are quite taken by how these types of shutters have small louvers and are\nattached to the window frame using hinges.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>West\nCoast Plantation Shutters. <\/strong>These types of shutters are all the rage in\nCalifornia. West Coast plantation shutters are larger than their counterparts,\nwith bigger louvers and panels that come up at about five to six feet tall. In\nthe Midwest, standard shutters are only three feet tall.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. <\/strong>Window Blinds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kravelv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/whosaleshutter2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11342\"\/><figcaption> <br><em>VENETIAN BLINDS: The perfect way to block out light and still get a good view outside. <\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>By definition, window blinds are any type of\nslatted window cover made of various materials, including wood, plastic and\nmetal. Held together by cords or strings that run the length of the slats, they\ncan be operated either manually by tugging at the cords or via a remote to\nachieve the desired level of light blockage. The most popular types of window\nblinds are perhaps the bamboo blinds and the Venetian blinds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bamboo blinds are easy to install and operate,\nproviding an effortlessly chic yet functional look for your home\u2019s interior.\nAnother good thing is that they are affordable enough that you can buy one for\nevery window in your home without burning a hole in your pocket. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Venetian blinds, on the other hand, have been\naround for centuries (a true classic) and are probably what comes to mind when <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Window_blind\">window blinds<\/a> are mentioned. You\ncan\u2019t go wrong with Venetian blinds either because they effectively block out\nlight while still providing a view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Window Shades<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kravelv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/whosaleshutter3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11343\"\/><figcaption> <br><em>WHEN IN ROME: You don\u2019t have to travel far to experience the ingenious way Roman shades can spruce up any interior.\ufeff<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Shades operate pretty much the same way as window blinds, with a lifting mechanism that pulls the window treatment up and down. One key difference between shades and blinds is the material. Shades are made of lengths of fabric, whereas blinds are made of hard materials. The most popular type of window shades would have to be Roman shades, which provide a soft yet structured look for your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the case of window shades, choosing the\nappropriate type of fabric is crucial for achieving your desired light blockage\nand, of course, your desired interior aesthetics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Curtains<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kravelv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/whosaleshutter4.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11344\"\/><figcaption> <br><em>VARIETY AND FUNCTIONALITY: Curtains are endlessly customizable and extremely functional &#8211; a win-win for every homeowner.\ufeff<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re the type of homeowner who likes to switch things up every once in a while, then curtains just might be the thing for you. You can indulge in a wide selection of fabric colors, patterns and textures. There\u2019s simply no way you\u2019ll run out of options when it comes to curtains. On top of the style variety, you can also customize the length of your curtains. Some go for the dramatic effect of floor-length curtains while some prefer a shorter panel cut that\u2019s easier to maintain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curtains can be hung with the help of curtain\nrods, which can be made of wood or metal (depending on the style of your\ninterior and the weight of your curtains). You can use curtain rings and\ngrommets as well to hang up the fabric uniformly on curtain rods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Drapes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kravelv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/whosaleshutter5.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11345\"\/><figcaption> <br><em>Draperies are an elegant way of adorning your home while blocking out unwanted light from outside.<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Drapes, also known as draperies, are also made\nof fabric. They differ from curtains in that drapes are made of heavier fabrics\nsuch as velvet, damask and silk. Due to these materials often being labeled as\nluxurious, drapes are often associated with more formal settings. In reality,\nhowever, you can use drapes in just about any room, where you need the sunlight\nto be completely blocked out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At a glance, window treatments may not seem like an important aspect of home decor. However, they are more than just accents to spruce up your interior spaces, adding function and beauty to every home. Window treatments can do a lot to easily take your property to the next level so don\u2019t hesitate to give them a shot.
