Lace Window Treatments

The original "window treatments" were purely functional. They acted as a barrier to the cold in the winter and the heat in the summer. The functionality of window treatments has diminished some what as homes have improved but they still remain popular as a decorative enhancement. Window treatments bring together the thematic elements of colors and designs in a living space.
Croscill Bedding was the first company to offer decorative window treatments that matched their bedding sets. The first matching patterns that Croscill offered were known as "Arsenic and Old lace", coined from a popular Cary Grant movie. Historically these first breakthrough ideas from Croscill have made them one of the most popular names in bedroom themes. Today you can get and entire decorative motif from Croscill that spans from bedroom to bathroom. Croscill is also known for bringing decorating to the household, allowing the average person to elegantly decorate their living area without laying out huge expenditures on a professional decorator. Other companies soon followed suit, and today you can find window treatments for every room and any style imaginable. Many companies now offer patterns in similar color schemes which can be mixed and matched to suit a variety of tastes.
