Greetings!  

Wow, spring is already here and summer is on it's way!  Did you know that as much as 40% of a homes unwanted summer heat enters through it's windows?  Did you know that insulating window treatments can drastically reduce that figure?  Yes, the right window treatments can not only enhance the look of your room but they can save you money and keep you cool as well!  My three favorite choices for beating the heat are: 1. Sheer roller shades for indoors or out help you keep the view and reduce glare.  2.  Blackout draperies help you sleep in late!  3. Cellular shades are excellent insulators and come in lots of shapes for hard to fit windows.  And let's not forget the best way to cool off - head for the beach!
 
See you there!
Get some Shade!
Indoors or out
 
sheer bedroom
This bedroom has a beautiful easterly view and LOTS of sun EARLY in the morning.  To help these homeowners sleep in we installed natural linen drapes with blackout lining.  Behind the drapes we added sheer roller shades to cut heat and glare and give them a little privacy.  The great thing is they can still enjoy the view with the shades down!  Sheer shades are so versatile, they can be part of a layered look or used alone.
