Designer Screen Shades Fabric: Umbria Color: Pebble
| Besides offering extra insulation and privacy, drapes can really add drama and dimension to your bedroom. But since drapes are easier to switch out than shades, always choose your shade first. If you go with a lighter-colored shade, you could complement it with a darker drape. Or if your shade is solid, maybe a more colorful pattern would work well. Whatever window treatments you choose, just try to keep a good balance between fashion and functionality. Because no matter how beautiful you want your bedroom to be, sleep is of the highest importance. So light control is key. |
