Shades

Custom shades are popular for their variety of fabrics and colors and versatility.

Custom shades complement any style of décor, and offer the soft look of draperies in a compact, neatly-folding option. Shades provide privacy when needed, and rise up out of the way to let the sunshine in during the daylight hours.

Fabrics and Features

We can assist you in choosing the fabric that will work for you, both to work with your décor and to provide the functionality that you need. The material that you select will dictate how much light comes through, so if you would like more light blocking, select a heavier or more tightly-woven material. Lighter, sheerer fabrics let in more light while diffusing it for a soft look.

Custom Shades come in many shapes and forms. A honeycomb design creates pockets of air that can provide terrific insulation, while a pleated style looks similar but provides options for unique weaves and textures. Roman shades are made of tailored fabric that lays quite flat for a sleek, modern look. All of them fold, roll or stack up easily and can even be hidden under window-topping soft treatments like valances.

Raising and lowering a shade allows you to regulate both light and temperature. Is the day hot with direct sun coming into your windows? Lowering the shade will cut the sun and reduce your room’s temperature. Is it a cold day? Lowering the shade can insulate the window and keep out some of the cold.
