The First Part of Customizing Roman Shades: Understanding What They Are

Roman shades are a type of window covering that consists of single fabric panels that fold neatly when raised and lie flat when lowered for an elegant, unfussy appearance. They operate through a system of cords or loops that let you adjust the height of the shades precisely to control light and privacy. These shades come in various styles, like flat, hobbled, and balloon, each offering a different look and feel.

Why is Customizing Roman Shades a Better Option?

While ready-made Roman shades are widely available, custom ones offer several advantages:

  1. You choose the fabric, color, and style from a more comprehensive range of options. That makes it much easier to find ones that best complement your decor and meet your exact needs.
  2. Custom Roman shades are made from durable, long-lasting materials and fabrics, providing lasting beauty and functionality to your space. That makes them a better investment because they don't need replacement as often.
  3. Custom shades are measured and installed to fit your windows for a polished look.
  4. You can layer and tailor custom window treatments for added insulation. That regulates indoor temperature and reduces energy costs.

The Process of Customizing Roman Shades

The customization process for Roman shades typically begins with selecting the fabric. You'll browse various colors, textures, and opacities to find the perfect match for your decor and light control preferences. Once you've chosen the fabric, you can select the style of Roman shade that best suits your aesthetic, whether it's a sleek flat style or a more traditional hobbled design. Finally, accurate measurements of your windows will ensure a precise fit.
