<\/p>\nWindow curtains are a staple in the window fashion world, but what if you want to do things differently? Our designers share some of the most popular alternatives to window curtains to keep your home looking fabulous and on-trend.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Privacy is a top priority in the bedroom, and opaque window curtains are an easy way to guarantee yours. Unfortunately, curtains offer an all-or-nothing approach to privacy and light control. They\u2019re open or closed with no in-between. If curtains are a must-have for your bedroom, we recommend pairing them with\u00a0Parkland\u00ae Wood Blinds<\/a>. You can tilt the slats of blinds to allow for varying amounts of light and privacy. Blinds also allow you to see the outdoors without entirely raising them.<\/p>\n Black curtains help darken the room and create a dramatic aesthetic but leave no wiggle room for adjusting the amount of light in the room.\u00a0Designer Roller Shades<\/a> allow you to enjoy the blackout effects of black curtains with a slim, sleek silhouette. Opt for the Duolite\u00ae feature to enjoy a sheer shade and opaque liner on the same headrail or the Dual Roller design to outfit your window with any two roller shade materials.<\/p>\n Duette\u00ae Cellular Shades<\/a> are another great alternative to black curtains. They darken a room while bringing divine texture and insulation to the window. Various cell sizes allow you to accommodate windows of all sizes, and the innovative LightLock\u00ae option prevents 50% more unwanted light from entering your home.<\/p>\n Light filtering curtains gently diffuse light to give your home a warm, welcoming glow. What these curtains can\u2019t do is offer varying levels of privacy or light control. If you love the look of light-filtering curtains but want more flexibility, we suggest using sheer shades.\u00a0Silhouette\u00ae Sheer Shades<\/a> feature S-shaped fabric vanes between dual sheer fabric panels that adjust to allow for precision control of natural light. Sheer shades also offer exceptional protection from damaging UV rays.<\/p>\n Floor-to-ceiling curtains are elegant and sophisticated, but fabric brushing the floor is a magnet for dust and other allergens.\u00a0Vertical blinds<\/a> are an attractive alternative to floor-to-ceiling curtains and are far easier to maintain. The vanes of vertical blinds draw the eye upward to make your ceiling appear taller and are a chic addition to any d\u00e9cor.<\/p>\n Skyline\u00ae Panel-Track Blinds<\/a> are another exquisite solution for floor-to-ceiling needs. The panels provide a striking backdrop for a room when closed and stack tightly when open to offer the best view of your backyard. Personalize your Skyline\u00ae Panel-Track Blinds with optional top treatments, or mount them from the ceiling to provide a unique room divider.<\/p>\n White House Designs for Life<\/a>\u00a0is the area\u2019s premier full-service interior design firm, offering custom\u00a0Hunter Douglas<\/a>\u00a0window treatments, high-end furniture, and\u00a0home accents<\/a>.\u00a0Our designers<\/a> can help you dress your home\u2019s windows with attractive alternatives to curtains.<\/p>\nBlack Curtains<\/h2>\n
