gather around

This room might be known by different names, but it's the room where we spend much of our time relaxing, entertaining, and gathering together to laugh and play. Window treatments in this space should reflect the casual and light-hearted purpose of this room. Here are some ideas to get you started decorating your family room windows.

If you have many windows or large windows, you'll definitely want a window treatment that can block damaging ultraviolet rays and that can reduce the heat gain from direct sunlight. Cellular shades are an excellent choice for both, and are available in varying opacities depending on your light control needs. There are a variety of other options that can also provide the light control you need in the look you want.

things to consider:

If you have children or pets in the home, look for cordless window treatments to keep this family gathering space safe from the dangers of dangling cords. For windows that are very tall or difficult to reach, you may consider a motorized window treatment that can be remote controlled.

For rooms with a sliding door, there are great alternatives to the traditional vertical blind – for example, try a modern panel track blind. Many of the available fabrics are also available in other window treatments, such as woven wood shades, to give you a matching look for all your windows.
