What You Need Know About Nursery Window Treatments

How to choose curtains for a nursery, safety tips, and more

Blinds or curtains? Venetians, rollers, or both? There are many beautiful window treatment options. Things get more complicated when you add a toddler to the mix. You will need something stylish but safe, practical but also beautiful. And you want nursery curtains at a fair price. It’s not difficult to do: A pair of curtains can quickly become a major headache.

Are you unsure where to begin? We have you covered, and your windows! This helpful list contains the dos and don’ts for nursery windows.

Avoid Floor-Length Draperies

Your curtains may serve some very interesting purposes if your toddler is able to reach them. You don’t want your child to climb on, pull, or wipe their nose on the curtain panels. It is best to keep them simple and out of reach.

Do not let your curtains overshadow the windows

Curtains reduce the window width and can cover a lot of glass, even when they are pulled back. Buy wide-paneled drapes if you plan to use them. Install the rod’s hardware farther from the edge of the window. This will give you the ability to pull the curtains back without blocking the view.

Please ensure your curtain rod is sufficiently long to allow for the extra width. Curtain rods stretched too far can become unstable and collapse.

Consider a Valance

Window blinds: A fabric valance can soften the look of blinds by adding color and texture to your design, while keeping little fingers away.

Don’t be afraid to dress up in expensive roller shades

Roller shades, unlike blinds which can be quite expensive, are very affordable and can be removed completely during the day. This ensures plenty of sunshine. For a soft and colorful look, attach a decorative fabric or light-blocking fabric to the front of a high-quality, ultra-thick model. Does that sound intimidating? It’s not as difficult as you might think.

Introduce patterns?

Choose a fun and patterned fabric to make your nursery look whimsical. To create continuity in your room, make sure you feature the same pattern throughout. You should aim for three to four patterns per room.

Enhance your theme

You are looking for a nautical theme? You might attach some nautical maps to your pull down roller blinds. Window dressings that are worthy of a princess. Cornice boxes with tiara-inspired designs will elevate your window treatments.

Make your window treatments a priority

Always choose your fabric elements first when decorating. It’s easier to select your textiles before you buy paint.

Make sure you properly install window treatments

Blind casings and curtain rods can fall, which can lead to serious injury. All curtain hardware should be attached to a wall stud or secured using the appropriate drywall anchors.

Tension rods should not be used

They are not attached to the wall so spring-loaded tension rods can collapse. This could cause a bad bop to toddlers who pull on the curtain panels. Instead, attach curtain hanging hardware directly to the wall.

Don’t Purchase Embellished Curtains

Curtains that have cording or beading should be avoided. These embellishments can become loose and may be pulled off by curious toddlers, creating a danger of choking. Instead, choose fun prints, rich textures and embroidery.

Do you Childproof your Blinds?

Blinds that have exposed cords too long can be strangulating for children. Make sure that your toddler is not left unsupervised in their bedroom. Install blinds by installing a safety device to prevent cord access. Blinds with new breakaway cords are also an option. They break when they get stressed. This is the perfect time to learn more about childproofing.

Keep Cool

Overheating is known to be a risk factor for SIDS. Research has shown that SIDS risk can be reduced by keeping your child’s bedroom cool and well-circulated.

Even though your nursery may seem cool in the day, it is a smart idea to put heat-reflecting and UV-blocking window treatment.

Double-lined, UV blocking drapes or blinds is a great way to keep your child cool during nap time. UV-blocking window films can also be purchased that reflect the heat of the sun and can be applied directly on to the glass.

Safety first

Sometimes common sense is lost in the rush to get everything perfect before the big day. Preventing nursery accidents is the best defense. Make sure to place safety devices such as stops or window guards on all windows and be mindful of where your furniture is placed. It is not a good idea to put your child in direct sunlight, or too close to the window so they can fall.

Home Office Window Treatment Ideas

You feel more motivated, relaxed and able to get the job done when you have the right environment in your home office. Your desk and furniture may be perfect, but what about your windows.

These window treatments that can create the right environment for your home office to allow you to be more productive.

Plantation Shutters for Your Home Office

Plantation shutters can be a great choice for your home office window treatment. They are easy to install, look beautiful, and can last for many decades.

It is uncomfortable to work in a home office that is warmer or colder than your rest of the house. By reducing heat transfer through the windows, plantation shutters regulate temperature. They are up to 70% more efficient than wooden shutters.

Plantation Shutters can help you get back on track by reducing distractions. They reduce outside noises and allow you to control the light. You can switch quickly between shutters that flood your room with light and shutters that block out the glare from your monitor.

And they do more than reduce distractions. They maintain the room’s temperature. Plantation shutters create a home office that you love. Plantation shutters are designed to frame your windows and bring out the design of the room. They can be used to cover any shape window, even triangular or octagonal.

There are many styles to choose from, including faux wood plantation shutters and wooden ovation, made of reclaimed wood, and studio shutters that are builder-grade.

And the durability of plantation shutters is unbeatable. No matter how frequently you change your furniture, flooring, and paint colors, your window treatment will last a lifetime. This allows you to spend more time working than on redecorating your windows.

Barn Door Shutters for Your Home Office

Do you want a unique look for your home? Slider barn door shutters add a unique touch to your home office and make it more inviting. For a seamless look, you can pair them with our sliding door shutters. You can personalize your barn door shutters with a variety of paints, stains and hardware.

When you need some inspiration, it’s simple to open the barn doors shutters. You can close your barn doors if you require more privacy or less sunlight.

Barn door shutters, open or closed, are an art piece that will be the center of attention in your office.

Home Office Shades for Your Home Office

Shades are a classic window treatment that can be used to create a more relaxing atmosphere in your home office. You can customize your shades in a variety of ways to make your home office a sanctuary. You can choose from cellular shades to Roman shades to woven woods and pleated shades. Next, choose colors, patterns and final details.

Shades of fabric dampen sound in rooms with large windows or hard floors. This is particularly useful for conference calls at your home office. Privacy liners can be used to block out light.

Blinds for Your Home Office

Blinds can seem like a great option for homeowners who are budget conscious. Blinds can be used to control the lighting in your office, but they aren’t as durable as plantation shutters. They are more expensive and require replacement more often. They are not as economical in the long-term.

Blinds are more than just thin, plastic blinds that yellow and break over time. You can now choose from metal, faux wood, hardwood and vertical blinds to create the perfect atmosphere for your home office. Upgrades such as motorization or cordless lift systems are also available.

The Top 10 Things You Need to Know Before You Buy a Plantation Shutter… Part 2

Provided by Better Blinds of Ocean View & Millsboro, DE

Click Here for Part 1

6) PLANTATION SHUTTERS EASY CLEAN AND GREAT FOR ALLERGIES

WebMD suggests this in their article How to Allergy Proof Your World. “Avoid dust-collecting Venetian Blinds or long drapes.” Shades or shutters can be replaced with old window coverings.

Shutters can be a great way of allergy-proofing your windows, as suggested by this guide, “5 Tips for Allergy-Proofing Your Windows.” The wide 4 1/2-inch louvers are a great option, as they have large slats and are easy to clean.

7) SHUTTERS IS THE ONLY WINDOW COVERING ACTUALLY STAYS ON APPRAISAL

Permanent changes should be considered, regardless of whether you are staying in your home for the long-term or looking to make a move in the near future. Plantation shutters can increase the value of your house because they are a permanent fixture that stays with the house. For more information on how shutters can help increase the value of your home, please visit the blog “Four Ways Plantation Blinds Add Value to Your Home.”

8) KNOW HOW MUCH QUALITY SHUTTERS COST IN YOUR AREA

You can make the worst mistake in this decision by purchasing low-quality shutters that won’t withstand time. Nationally manufactured plantation shutters have been tested and warrantied for decades. Graber, Norman and Eclipse are all well-known manufacturers who know how to make quality shutters. It is important to know how much a high-quality product should cost.

9) QUALITY OF SHUTTER PRODUCTION RANIES DRAMATICALLY. KNOW WHAT YOU’RE GETTING

Shutters can either be made in your own town or in the USA. To make the best choice, you need to know what goes into your shutter. Ask what kind of joinery your shutter doors are made from (dowels, mortise and tenon). There are many woods curing options and treatments that can drastically alter the life expectancy of shutters. The shutter’s appearance will last for many decades thanks to the quality of the paint and finish.

10) PLANTATION SHUTTERS: THE TOP UPGRADE

For premium plantation shutters, hidden tilt rods are a great upgrade. There are two main methods to remove the tilt rod from your shutter door. Hidden Tilt is the first and most common method. It has a steel connector at the shutter’s street side. It is extremely thin and barely visible from either shutter side (but it is still there). The small screw attaches to each shutter slat and the steel rod. All shutter slats will open and close when you move one shutter rod.

SHUTTER CLEANING GUIDE

For thorough cleaning, open the louvers and “slats”, in both the closed and open positions. Avoid soaking the product in water. This can cause discoloration, and wood may warp. Ultrasonic cleaning should only be used on shutters made of Premium Polyresin 3 and not on shutters made from wood or faux wood. Use a cotton cloth dampened in water to remove stubborn dirt and stains. Polyester cloths can create static which can attract more dust.

SUMMARY

Plantation shutters are a long-lasting investment. It is important to be aware of the various upgrades and options available, so your project lasts for many years. Plantation shutters are a significant investment, but they will improve curb appeal, light control, and increase value for your home. This makes them the top choice for both new and existing homeowners.

The Top 10 Things You Need to Know Before You Buy a Plantation Shutter… Part 1

Provided by Better Blinds of Ocean View & Millsboro, DE

These are the top ten things to know before you buy a plantation shutter. You can increase the home’s value, but there’s more!

Plantation shutters are true class and quality. Many homeowners love plantation shutters because they are elegant and sophisticated. They also hunt for the right stain to match their decor.

Plantation shutters is a term you may have heard or seen. Because of their similarities to antebellum plantations in America’s Southeast, wood shutters have been called “plantation shutters”. This type of shutter is best suited for larger windows with the largest louvers.

Below is a list of the top 10 things you need to know before buying a plantation shutter. These are essential aspects to be aware of before you make the purchase of the most attractive window coverings available today.

1) LOUVER SIZE CHANGES THE ENTIRE LOOK

It is important to know what the space should feel like after you have finished. Are you seeking a modern feel with large, open windows? Or a classic feel with double-hung shutters that give the room a more traditional look? There are many design options available, and we can help you navigate the costs and find the best sales.

2) INSTALLATION MATTERS FOR MANY REASONS

To ensure that shutters are installed according to manufacturer specifications, a qualified installer is required. This could void your warranty. Wood shutters require attention to detail. To avoid warpage and pinched hinges, ensure that the frames are square and straight.

The shutter will absorb 100% of the UV rays from your window. The shutter can be difficult to install. If the installer is not skilled enough to level the frame properly, it will eventually bend to the new form, causing cracks and warpage. By choosing a dealer that has factory-certified installers, you can avoid this. It is a small price to pay for the 25–50-year life expectancy of your shutter, which is fully covered by the manufacturer’s Limited Warranty.

3) SMALL UPGRADES CAN MAKE A BIG IMPACT ON THE FINAL LOOK

You can make your shutter look even better with a few inexpensive upgrades. Shutter pulls, shutter locks and hidden hinges are just a few of the options. These upgrades can be purchased for around $25 per door (hidden hinges cost more). The brushed nickel finish looks great with all whites and off-whites. It also pops well when you put on stained wood shutters. The shutter is protected from prying eyes and children, while the pulls protect it from an adult who may not be able to open it properly.

4) MATERIALS THAT MATTER IN PLANTATION SHUTTER CONSTRUCTION

Although wood is the most common material for plantation shutter constructions, there are many areas where it is not the best. Wood shutters (or faux) are not recommended for the garage, attic, or bathroom. They are susceptible to humidity and moisture. There are many options available for these areas. These include ABS polymer louver shutters like the popular “Woodlore Plus” shutter from NORMAN. The “Premium Polyresin 3”, the shutter from Eclipse, is the most durable shutter available.

5) PLANTATION SHUTTERS MAY BE MOTORIZED

Motorized window coverings have made it possible to increase your options in 2018 with the advancements in motorization. Motorized window coverings offer many benefits. They are more reliable, cost-effective, efficient, and last longer than single-charge batteries. My blog “Top 10 Reasons to Motorize in 2021” explains all aspects of motorization in a concise, thorough manner. Please take a look.

Motorized shutters can be set to open or close at a specific time. Imagine waking up to your automated shutters in bed. They can be programmed to close during heat. By blocking UV rays from every day, this protects your carpets, wood floors, and fabrics. It is easy to program and use the remote. You can either control each shutter individually or all at once. To truly believe this system, you must watch the video of Norman’s “Remote Tilt”.

2022 Bedroom Window Treatments: Blackout Blinds & Shades

Provided by Better Blinds of Ocean View, DE

2022 Bedroom Window Treatments: Blackout Blinds & Shades

You can transform your bedroom into a sanctuary with the right window treatment. What kind of bedroom shades are best? One of the most important things to think about is the shade’s ability to block out light when you need complete darkness. Also consider temperature control as a factor, as well as noise reduction.

Blackout blinds & shades can be beneficial to anyone, including the sleep-deprived, night-shift workers, and home theater owners. However, those who don’t like blackout curtains might choose Blackout Blinds & Shades. Experts believe that blackout curtains are best for those who have room to darken, not true blackout.

While good Blackout Blinds & Shades can block as much light as they claim, proper installation is crucial. Even the most effective Blackout Blinds & Shades can be affected by the “light halo,” a phenomenon where small amounts of light seep into the shade’s sides. Many professionals found that cellular shades are the best at blocking light.

These shades have either a single layer or a double layer of hollow cells. They not only block light but also provide insulation and noise reduction. You may also want to consider an inside mount where the shade hangs within the window frame, covering only the actual glass pane.

Roller shades allow light through the gap between the mounting hardware, the shade’s top and the shade. This style will not achieve complete blackout. You’ll need to have them mounted above the window frame. To keep out the light, woven-wood shades will need a liner. They come in many sizes and colors. The shade may not be as effective in your home if it is smaller in size or color.

Looks Attractive

Your blackout shades will be used every day so make sure you love the look. Shades with modern designs, attractive materials, and have a cordless lift mechanism are preferred.

It’s a smart idea to keep your children and pets away from your shades. It is possible to tear a shade by tugging on it with excessive force or in other directions. Shades can be easily damaged or scratched by cats as well as your kids.

Blind Maintenance

You can dust most shades by hand or using the attachment on a vacuum with a low power setting. Spot-cleaning can be done with a sponge, mild detergent, and lukewarm to warm water. It is best to follow the cleaning instructions that came with your shades.

Smart shades and blinds are energy-efficient and more convenient. They’re also great for people with difficult to reach windows. However, most blinds come at a high price.

There are many bedroom blinds, shades, and sheers available that will help you create the right atmosphere for a restful night. Our window-treatment experts can help you choose the right materials and colors, as well as expert measurement and installation. Call today for a free in-home consultation.
