Have you ever looked at a fabric and instantly loved it? If so, chances are you’re a pattern lover! The latest drapery trends show us that patterns are in. Damasks, paisleys, wide sweeping florals, and stripes are just a few favorites. Which pattern would you pick to show off your style?

The Little Details.

It’s simple to customize your drapery and showcase your personality by choosing details that speak to you. First, start with the hardware. Choose from popular finishes like matte black, natural brass, gold, or oil-rubbed bronze. Then, consider the header (the top of the draperies). You can attach drapery with hooks, grommets, or rings. It’s all customizable, meaning your personal taste will shine through every last detail.

Layers of Style.

When you put together an outfit, there are often many layers. This brings in different textures, colors, and variety. The window is no different. Layering window treatments has been popular for a long time, and it continues to be one of the top drapery trends.

We’re seeing more designs that combine woven shades with soft linen. The linen flows around the window, creating a stunning frame. The shades raise and lower, offering solutions for sunlight and privacy. The two combined give effortless style and function.

Another drapery trend we continue to see is solid drapes paired with sheers. This also allows for a custom ambiance with increased light control and privacy solutions.

We love to see trends that stay around for a while, but we encourage our clients to think outside the box and create designs that encapsulate their personality. Another way to spruce up your home design is to add drapery in unexpected places, like a bathroom, laundry area, or even a closet! As long as you have a window, you can create a look that shows your style.

Colors or Neutrals?

Take a look at your space. Now, imagine your windows framed in drapery. Is there color? White? A combination? No matter what you favor, your personal style matters. Take time to search the web for different design styles or hold up a fabric swatch to help visualize your future drapery.
