Design trends are always changing, which is what makes the design world so exciting! There’s nothing better than finding trends that align with your personal style. Creating a home full of your own style statements means infusing your personality in every part of your design. Windows are no different. Current drapery trends make it easy to show your style off right at the window. Here’s how.
Choose Patterns.

Damask, stripes, wide sweeping florals, paisleys…the list goes on. Because there are so many options, there is usually a pattern for everyone. If you’re ever come across a pattern that speaks to you, then you know exactly what we mean! Today’s drapery trends incorporate stunning patterns, often paired with a shade for extra function. So, take some time to explore different patterns online–you never know what you will fall in love with.
Layer Your Treatments.
As mentioned, it’s not uncommon to have drapery paired with shades or blinds. Layering your window treatments means more color, texture, and personality. Plus, the additional coverage allows for more light and privacy control.

Our favorite current drapery trend is soft linen panels paired with a woven shade. The style is refreshing and elegant, flowing gorgeously at the window. Both coverings offer light-filtering solutions, allowing for ultimate ambiance control.

We also love the look of solid draperies paired with sheers. This combination gives light and privacy control, too. Solid fabrics give even more control because they’re able to block more light, as well as the view. Push them to the side and the sheers allow for soft, filtered light to enter.
Decide on the Details.

Take advantage of all the customizable options! Today’s drapery trends typically feature finishes in matte black, natural brass, oil-rubbed bronze, and gold. The header, which is the top of the drapery that attaches to the curtain rod, can have rings, hooks, or grommets. So, take a look at all your options to see which one speaks most to you.
Think Outside the Box.

You may think that draperies can only go in main areas like living rooms. But, we encourage you to take a look at all of your windows. Consider how draperies will enhance unlikely spaces, like bathrooms, luxury closets, or even the laundry area. Every window in your home deserves an elevated design!
Choose Your Hue.
Are you a color lover or more into neutrals? Maybe it’s a combination! Take some time to consider what your favorite colors are and search the web for ideas. You may find yourself eyeing something unexpected, like a bright pattern or unlikely solid.

No matter what, your house should be a reflection of your style. We love to see our clients choose fabrics and colors that make them happy. We want to help take your window design to the next level! Contact our team today at Creative Blinds to schedule your free, in-home design consult.
