Selecting Window Treatments for Older Homes

There are many reasons to love older homes, including their charm and uniqueness. However, some people who have an older home can feel a bit daunted by selecting appropriate window fashions. Luckily, no matter the home’s style or age, there are a number of window fashions that will work while still celebrating the great qualities of the house. At Blind Builders serving Feasterville, we carry the full line of Hunter Douglas products and can help you find the perfect treatments for your home. Check out some of the options below, and be sure to contact one of our representatives today. 

Timeless Style

A classic treatment, the Roman shade offers softness and a tailored appeal for the room. You can choose from a number of different folds, to completely change the look and feel of your space. One great option is the Vignette® Modern Roman Shade, which you can find in both full and flat folds. If you’re looking for a more natural vibe, check out Provenance® Woven Wood Shades, which are made of woven woods, grasses, reeds, and bamboo. With their artisanal background, these shades offer organic style and texture.

Durability 

Made to be sturdy, wood blinds and shutters offer natural grain finishes, color variations, and textures that can add warmth and personality to your home. Plus, they work well as complements to the wood flooring or stained wood trim that older homes often have. To add luxury to the space, consider Parkland® Wood Blinds, which are available in over 50 colors in stains and paints that can last through the years. If you want the feel of real wood with the durability of composite materials, check out Everwood® Alternative Wood Blinds, which are guaranteed to never warp, fade, yellow, or bow.

Sleek Minimalism

With clean lines that blend with nearly any décor, roller shades can complement almost any room and are available in numerous patterns, colors, and textures. Available in almost 400 colorways, Designer Roller Shades offer smooth, flawless operation and minimal light gaps. And Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades offer the simplicity of a roller shade combined with the energy efficiency of a cellular shade, which can help with homes that have older (leaky) windows. 

Sophisticated Style

You can use drapery as a standalone window covering or to layer a window treatment that’s already on your window, and it can set the mood for your space. Drapery can help your ceilings look taller and your windows look larger, and it can complement your home’s heritage with its style and hardware. Be sure to speak with a Blind Builders consultant to learn more about drapery and what it can do for your home.
