Making New Window Coverings Your Own in Stoneham, MA
At Curtain Time, we have the best tips to make your new window coverings feel like your own. Learn more by following our tips below to find out why it’s easy to fully ingrain Hunter Douglas treatments into your existing home décor and lifestyle. With advice on aesthetics and design, our team is ready to help you find the beauty and benefits in custom made shades for your home.
Invest in Custom Made Shades
When you work with Curtain Time, you’ll learn that custom made shades can truly make all the difference in drawing a room together. Nothing that is mass produced is ever going to perfectly suit your style right out of the package. Issues with exact fit or slight color variances can keep your new window coverings feeling disconnected from your existing interior design aesthetic and make them seem imperfect in the space.
On the other hand, our custom-made shades are precisely tailored to your household for an exact fit and style that matches your personal tastes. And with a product line as diverse as the Hunter Douglas Design Studio™ collection, you can find custom made shades in a wide range of designs, from flowing drapery to sculpted Roman shades to the streamline style of designer roller shades.
Don’t Forget the Hardware
To create a polished custom look for your home, don’t underestimate the importance of hardware. These finishing details not only complete the overall look of your new window coverings - they are additional tools to help imbed your custom made shades into existing décor. For example, a set of Design Studio Drapery finished with metallic hardware will have a more industrial feel than the chic lines of custom made drapes with hidden hardware. And if that metallic hardware coordinates with other metallic features in the room, it also reenforces that style and helps carry it throughout the space.
Use Fabric as a Connector
For new window coverings with a fabric base, like Design Studio Roman Shades, homeowners can take advantage of the incredible flexibility of fabric as a design tool to create custom features that help tie design together. To illustrate, imagine a set of custom-made Roman shades in one of Rebecca Atwood’s designer prints hanging regally in your living room, then turn to the side and see custom throw pillows on the couch, two in the same fabric and two in coordinating fabrics - thanks to Accents by the Yard™. Not only do these fabric applications connect the aesthetic throughout the room, they also add rich visual elements to enhance décor while still staying in line with your personal tastes.
Upgrade to Motorization
To truly incorporate your new window coverings into your household, choose a smart motorized operating system to upgrade the usability and function of your home this year. Looks aren’t the only feature that needs to coordinate on new window coverings to make them feel like they are really part of your home.
For Design Studio Roller Shades, Roman Shades, and Drapery, our most updated third generation of PowerView® Automation is available to upgrade these custom made shades. PowerView not only has advanced control options through its PowerView® app that include features like automatic scheduling, it also has the ability to interface with home assistant programs (like Amazon Alexa, Siri®, Google Assistant, or Apple HomeKit) and smart home systems for full integration into your household routine - powered by Bluetooth technology.

Breck P. says “5 Stars! Ilya and Curtain Time did a wonderful job with our custom drapes. I had exhausted the stock options and realized that we had a unique situation - Ilya worked with me to find the right style and fabric for a custom situation. The end result works perfectly for our home and is truly elegant. Thanks again.”
