A Guide to Accessorizing

A beautiful room includes great furniture, appropriate lighting, the right colors, and of course – the perfect accessories. Accessories add the finishing touch, and they can transform a so-so room into a space that feels flawlessly complete.

What’s your preference?

The season has changed from “keep the heat in” to “let the light in!” During those cold winter months, I like to keep as much heat in as possible, sometimes leaving the shades and shutters closed for warmth, sometimes letting the sun and the light in. What’s your preference?

Cleaning window shades

Last month I talked about cleaning blinds. What about shades? Shades are a bit trickier because there are so many different fabrics or materials used. What works for one type of shade fabric may damage another.

The perfect window cover

I love to help people find the perfect window covering, be it a blind, shade, or soft treatment. When meeting a homeowner for the first time, I am almost always asked, “What do you think?” It’s not a simple answer. I have to know what is needed to create the perfect solution, so I get there with questions.

Are you losing heat through your windows?

This is the time of year when we realize that heat is seeping out through our windows, robbing the rooms of precious warm air. Did you know that as much as 50% of our heating & cooling energy is lost through our windows? Yes, right out the windows, making the HVAC system work that much harder or making it uncomfortably cold so that you have to turn up the heat.

Window covering safety

Window covering cords has been a controversial subject plaguing the window covering industry for many years. Due to the unfortunate deaths of several young children, manufacturers have been charged with implementing better and safer ways to operate blinds and shades.

Arched windows

When it comes to arched, angled, and odd-shaped windows there is no one simple answer. There are not a wide variety of options for these windows and the products that are available are limited in function and in size.
