We are used to choose draperies and other windows accessories after decorating the entire room or even the entire house. We look for something that will match the rest of the décor and we’re done. How about reversing the process and find accessories for windows first and then decorate the rest of the room? The windows area can be the focal point of a room. Whether you need something to block the sun, to give you more privacy or you simply want to add a new flair to your room, you have to acknowledge that every window deserve special treatments! We decided to show you some alternatives to those boring curtains you can see everywhere. Take a look and decide what window treatment you like the most.
Door Frames
If you really want to change the entire aspect of your room with one simple trick then this suggestion is perfect for you. Replacing the classic curtains with some wood doors will most definitely add a new vibe to your room.
The doors can be the focal point of your room and you can decorate the space to match them. Your room will have two different faces – one when the doors are open and another one for when the doors are closed. It’s a simple trick to keep your room fresh and stylish.
Beads Glam
If you don’t have to cover up your windows but you want to add a little bit of glam to your room, adding a beaded curtain is all you have to do. You can choose between translucent beads for a romantic atmosphere or colorful beads for a more playful touch. If you cannot find the perfect beaded curtains for your room but you’d love to add that extra glam touch to your room, there are many DIY tutorials you can use to create your very own beaded curtains. Sometimes DIY is the best way to create home décor to fit ones personality.
Cutout Spaces
When it comes to cutout spaces as window treatments, your imagination is the only limit! First of all you have to decide what geometric shape/model you’d like to see reflected on your walls and on the floor. Second of all you have to decide the pattern and the size of your shape. One thing is sure though, if you have cutout window treatments, when the sun shines, your entire room gets a personality boost!
Metal Screens
Metal screens are another alternative for those who do not need privacy but would love a room remake without a lot of effort. A metal screen can easily be the focal point of the room. Also, they can be a nice and more durable alternative to windows cutouts.
The most important thing is to find the metal screen that fits the personality of the home owner but also the house’s personality. The colors of the metal screen should be chosen with the rest of the décor in mind, just to be sure the room won’t be overly decorated.
When choosing creative window treatments, the room décor should be toned down a little bit to maintain a stylish interior design. Combining courageous elements with simple, chic decorations is the best way to not overly-decorate a room.
