The Advantages Of Window Shades

Article Category: Home Management

Author Name: Jennie Keithson

A majority of houses have curtains or drapes on their windows. This is the most common method of applying window dressing to the "eyes" of your home. Other more innovative homeowners opt for window shades, which make the home look more modern and attractive. Window shades are normally constructed from material that is easier to clean, and hence make for effortless maintenance.

Curtains can be made of material that is lightweight, translucent, and often transparent, and while this is perfectly ok in the warmer months, it can make it hard to control the amount of light that gets into your home, not to mention afford you a measure of privacy. When the colder months of autumn and winter come around, you will need to take down the gauzy curtains and put up heavy drapes for insulation. However, these can give you a difficult time cleaning them, as you will need an industrial strength washing machine to remove mildew and stains, or frequent passes with the vacuum cleaner to remove dust.

With window shades, on the other hand, you can use the same ones the whole year through. They are more energy efficient as they allow you to maximize the use of natural sunlight, and they can give you the kind of privacy you want by simply pulling down the cords that can raise and lower them depending on whether you want sunlight, or whether you prefer darkness and privacy.

These types of window treatments are also easier to maintain, as they don't need much cleaning. Bamboo shades, in particular, are made of natural and environmentally friendly bamboo stalks or matchsticks, and they only need an occasional swipe with a wet rug to keep them spotless.

Window shades give your home a unique and original appearance. They are available in a wide variety of styles, designs, materials, colors, textures, and sizes. Depending on the kind of windows you have, your overall decorating theme, or simply out of preference, you can choose the best ones for your home.

Several factors can determine your choice of this type of window dressing. How much sunlight you want to get into your home is one. The amount of privacy you want is another. Aesthetic appeal is another factor you have to consider, as you will need to decide whether your home will look good with elegance of Roman shades, or the simplicity of Roller shades.

You can opt for plain shades with linings, or shades that are stylistically shaped and enhance with a wealth of accessories like fringe or tassels. Depending on your overall décor and preference, there are window shades that are relaxed and rustic, sleekly modern shades, and shades which are warm and cozy.

You can also opt for the thermal shades which are perfect for both cold and hot weather. These are usually made of 100% cotton and include panes that can effectively darken a room. Cordless shades can be lifted and lowered by holding its bottom rail and pulling, while Blackout Roller shades are usually made our of printed vinyl with either a fringed or plain hem.

Other shades are pleated or lightweight, and some are even made of 100% natural bamboo panels. Whatever type of window shades you choose for your home, you can be assured that they are going to bring a contemporary look and appeal to your surroundings.
