Today’s Top Treatments

Filed under: AK, Alaska, window coverings — Tags: , , , , — morganlopez @ 2:08 am

Top treatments come in many different styles. Some common types of top treatments are valances, cornices, and swags. Top treatments can help frame a window or add a finishing touch to a full drapery treatment. They can be used alone to soften a hard treatment such as a shade or blind. They also work well in coordinating different types of patterns and colors throughout your room to make everything flow together. Many top treatments are very affordable, because less fabric and materials are used. Top treatments are a nice touch to any window, big or small. They are a great way to have a polished look to any window!

Amazing Arch Windows!

Filed under: AK, Anchorage — Tags: , , — morganlopez @ 4:35 pm

Arch-topped windows can be a little trickier to cover and still keep the amazing architecture. Usually these windows are custom sized and require custom window treatments to fit them. Ceiling mounted blinds or shades can be an option and are available in nearly all styles. Consider the stacking height when going this route as you’ll likely want the blind or shade to stack completely above the window so as not to cover or detract from the arch. Another solution, especially in a formal setting, is to go with drapes or panels. Another beautuiful way is with custom highlite arches that look like they belong on the window. They are a beautiful treatment that is very functional! With the help of  ExcitingWindows! by Morgan Lopez we can create a great arch treatment just for you!
