Exciting Windows by Gailani & Associates

Have you ever past by a house and said to yourself: What they were thinking?

Often people choose window fashions based on what colors exists in their rooms, without thinking how the window would look from the outside.

Choosing the appropriate color lining is extra important. The lining color must look good with the house exterior. For instant, if the house has cool neutrals, then most likely white lining is what the window covering should have. On the other hand, if you got neutrals that are warm, then ivory lining will work best.

At the same time, there are several choices of whites and Ivories. When working with your window fashion consultant, he or she will bring a book of all available linings, and it will be wise to step outside your home to select the most perfect lining color that will blend best with your exterior colors, meanwhile it should also be the best choice for the fabric you have selected for the draperies in terms of content, to assure compatibility and in terms of color, so it does not affect the color of the body fabric chosen for your treatment.

It seems it was only yesterday when we were discussing saving energy by keep homes warm! Heating/ cooling Dollars appears to fly out the seams of windows and nothing can stop it. That is not until finding the perfect window covering that will prevent that.

The best way is to control the light entering a room and reducing the damaging UV rays. Today there are tones of products that reduce energy loss and yet the colors, styles, and options are endless. Cellular shades from different manufactures have so many varieties in colors, patterns and the number of cells that lock air in, and provide more layers of insulation. Others can prevent up to ninety percent of energy loss while you can still see the outdoors.

Most people are afraid of using bright or bold colors! You can ease yourself into colors by adding a little at a time, and here is how:

Let’s say you want to add a vibrant red or magenta pink to energize a room, instead of painting the room in those colors, how about adding pillows with large prints containing these colors in addition you can repeat the same colors in some accessories here and there for repetition and balance!

Another way might be adding trims with vibrant colors to your plain solid drapery panels! A group of colorful trims in various widths and styles can be added going horizontally at the lower edge of a panel can bring the whole room to life! Or adding colorful trim on sheer draperies, going vertically on the leading edge!
