Weird Window Situations ... and How to Fix Them

Robin Bond July 13, 2023

Whether your home is a brand new build or simply new to you, you are likely faced with one of two issues:

  1. The windows are bare and you feel like a fish in a fishbowl, especially at night.

  2. You are surrounded by window treatments that are dated and severely clash with your personal style. They make you feel frumpy and unhappy in your own space.

Isn’t it funny how window coverings, like other decor in the home, can play on our emotions? If your home needs a combination of function and style to dress the windows, you are in the right place. Here’s how to tackle your window issues and get you on the path to feeling good in your space, because your privacy and style are non-negotiable.



  1. No Window Treatments at All

If you’ve just moved into a home with gorgeous windows but have nothing to cover them with, you might be nervous to turn your lights on in the evenings or even take a shower. That’s no way to live. You’ll want to schedule your free in-home consultation as soon as possible, so you can enjoy some privacy in your own home. Our team works quickly and efficiently to ensure that the window treatments going into your new space are something you can be proud of and that will withstand the test of time. There isn’t a window situation that can’t be covered!


2. Cheap or Outdated Styles

You love the home but the former homeowner’s taste in window treatments looks like something out of a 90’s home magazine. It’s simply not your style. You cringe every time you look at the window and find yourself immediately apologizing for the outdated decor every time someone visits your home.

We feel your pain. Here’s what can be done about that:

  • Think about the window coverings you’d like to see in the space. If you aren’t sure, as designers, we can make suggestions based on how you are going to use the space, your personal style, and what would make a cohesive design with the rest of your interior. Once your new window coverings are ready, we’ll remove the old ones and install the new ones. You won’t have to lift a pretty little finger.



3. Hard-to-Dress Windows

Two-story, sliding patio doors, small powder room windows, and oddly shaped windows are among our specialties. Yes, they are a pain to dress, but we love a challenge. These windows rarely benefit from box store window treatment options because nothing quite fits them. They end up looking sloppy, cheap, or even unfinished. When addressing these situations, we arrive onsite with measuring tape and other tools in hand and a bundle of sample books to narrow down exactly what your window needs are and what you’d like to see everyday.

Whatever the window, we’ve got you covered!
