Black Window Treatments

there is one important question to remember when choosing window treatments that can narrow your search down immensely: how much light do I want to come in or stay out? In this article, we'll explore how that single question can narrow your window treatment search, a quick overview of the different kinds of window treatments, and what's new today in window treatment style. First, let's go over the different types we have to work with.
Window treatments are categorized into "hard" and "soft". Hard ones are things like blinds, and soft treatments are things like curtains, for example. The truth is you can match hard and soft treatments together for your own personal and unique looks. You've got blinds, shades, cellular shades, and roller shades, which are ideal for rooms where privacy and light control are the main concerns. Roman shades, made of fabric, are ideal for energy efficiency and complete-room darkening. Sheer window shadings which are ideal for privacy control, as well as light control (whether you want more or less). There are swags, Curtains, and Draperies, which are ideal when you want to soften the look of a window. Also, they can let light in while maintaining privacy. There are also shutters, which are ideal for maximum privacy and people who enjoy architectural beauty. Cornices and Valances are ideal for hiding hardware, and if expertly placed, to make the ceiling look taller. But, to choose which type of window treatment you want, you must first answer the most important question.
