Finding Perfect Window Treatments for Homes Near Elizabethtown KY

Here at Rachel Brosky Interiors , we know the challenge of finding perfect window treatments for homes, including draperies. But once you’ve found the right style and fabric, they make a huge difference in your home’s interior. We have a “no snob” approach and whether you have experience in interior design or this is your first time decorating your home, we are here to help you every step of the way and have fun while doing it!

When selecting window treatments or drapes, you’ll want to consider functionality over style. This will instantly narrow down your options and make it easier to make a decision on what will work best for you. Whether you want to soften your natural light, add more privacy, or add a pop of color, consider the following components when making your choice and finding the perfect window treatments for your home.

If privacy is your number one priority, the material of your window treatment and drapes matters most. If you’re aiming for a luxurious look, heavier fabrics like suede and velvet offer drama to a room and block out any light coming in. If you’re not sure what length your drapes should be, you have four different options. If you want short drapes, the hem should just touch the window sill. If you want longer drapes, they can either “brush the floor” where they just slightly touch the ground, “break the floor” where the edge of your drapes carry an inch or two over the floor, or “pool at the floor” where they sit on the floor with two inches of extra fabric or more.

Each length gives a different appearance and vibe, and we can work together to decide which looks best in your space. If you want to block out light and opt for shades that lower your energy bills, we offer our Hunter Douglas Duette® Honeycomb Shades with LightLock™. LightLock™ is the first of its kind to offer complete darkness when your shades are closed while also creating a system of insulation, so your home stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

There is nothing like the warm ambience of having natural light in your home. If you want to control the natural light without getting rid of it completely, window treatments are a great way to do that. Our Silhouette ® Window Shadings have been an industry leader for the past 25 years and diffuse your strong natural light into a beautiful, warm glow. Silhouette® shadings feature innovative S-shaped vanes that float between two sheer fabrics. To adjust the amount of light and privacy entering your home, simply tilt the vanes open or closed to the level you wish.

As mentioned before, our Duette® Honeycomb Shades are unparalleled when it comes to combining style and energy efficiency. Did you know that up to 50% of your home’s heat and AC can be lost through your windows? The honeycomb shaped cells trap air to create a system of insulation so that you aren’t losing money in warming or cooling your home. Duette® is available in countless colors, styles, fabrics, and operating systems.

We hope these gave you things to consider when choosing your drapes or window treatments for your home. Once you decide which component is most important, it’s easier to move forward from there. We would love to discuss your options and help you design the home of your dreams. Stop by our showroom located in Elizabethtown, KY to meet our team and get started!
