Nice Window Covering Ideas for House Decoration
You can consider having window covering for privacy. Choose the right covering that can fit with your budget, style, taste, and need. You can also consider about the brightness that you need in your room because each material has different intensity in preventing direct radiation.
1. Bedroom
Opaque blind is a perfect choose for bedroom window cover. For better opacity, you can choose fabric blinds or rigid horizontal blind.
2. Living room
You can prefer to have window cover that offers less privacy. The interior design of your house will be visible from outside.
3. Kitchen
It is better to have easy to maintenance cover. The recommendation for kitchen window cover is wood blinds. It is a lot better to have more rigid blinds for easy cleaning.
4. Bathroom
Get waterproof horizontal blinds for your bathroom because it is the best material for bathroom need.
The trend of window covering today is the minimalist model of covering.
Draperies are loaded with tassels and fringe to make the window looks good. If you are into minimalist decoration, you can choose bamboo blinds, Roman blinds, and other short of things.
One of the most popular cover is the exquisite gossamer sheers. It is a nice model with printed or embossed patterns. Velvet is another popular model for drapery. Sheers is very nice especially in brown color. You can also have long pleats for great decoration. Another fashionable decoration is draperies with grommets. Floor-length draperies are great to make the window looks amazing.
For children room, you can choose fun patterns to make the room livelier. Animal spots are great to make the room looks fun and comfortable. Your children will be happy to have such decoration.
Ceramic, metal, glass, and wood are popular for tie-backs, rods, and finials. They are like the jewelry of window curtain. You can use those materials as the accessories of window cover.
From all of the ideas above, I hope that you can make some changes for your windows. Having good-looking windows are very helpful to release stress and make the rooms feel comfortable.
You can use exterior window shades to make the windows look nice. They are also good in preventing direct UV radiation. I recommend you to have electric window shades for easier operation.

Hi we just got a new house and I’d like to make my own window treatments. I would be sewing by hand but also have a hot glue gun :). I’ve never made window treatments and could use some simple suggestions, or useful links.

It would depend on what type of window treatments you are making–valances, curtains, shades. If you go to a fabric store for fabric then you may be able to get either a pamphlet or a book with instructions for whatever you want to make.

Any ideas on how to come up with window treatments fast and cheap for my new house that has tons of windows?
Question by *me*: Any ideas on how to come up with window treatments fast and cheap for my new house that has tons of windows?
It is an old cottage with lots of charm. I plan on painting it all light, and sanding the wood floors light, so I want the curtains to be light too.
I need ideas for window treatments that are affordable, but creative. This house is covered with lots of windows, and I don’t know what I’m gonna do.

you go to your local fabric store. buy inexpensive yards of fabric. Then you go to walmart and buy a curtain rod with metal clips fasteners (like clothesline clips but metal). if you want a finished look, hem the edges after you cut to size. Make slightly wider to accommodate the “pleats.”
