What Do Your Window Treatments Say About You?
Jun 05, 2014They say that the way we dress reveals our personalities before we even get a chance to speak, but how about the way we dress our windows? What do your window treatments say about you? We’ve taken the most ‘on-trend’ curtain styles and paired them with different personality types. (We’re home remodelers, not psychologists so this is solely based on opinion. And Pinterest).
SHEER CURTAIN PANELS: For the relaxed, outdoor-loverIn all different colors and patterns, these are easy breezy!
If you could, you’d sleep outside under the stars every night. But rules are rules and you have to eventually go inside. These curtains let the light shine in and get swept away in a swift breeze, almost making it feel like you aren’t indoors. A super relaxed, casual style that screams beach bum.
BLACKOUT CURTAINS: For the private, energy-conscious
Blackout curtains now come in all sorts of fun patterns so you can still make a stylish statement while cooling your home.
For those of you who can never get enough privacy, blackout curtains block out noise and sunlight. It’s a good idea to put these curtains in your bedroom if your windows face east (that’s how the sun wakes up). If your current windows aren’t double pane or have solar tech glass, placing these curtains on windows near your favorite piece(s) of furniture can help prevent them from fading (an affect of sunlight). In addition to never being woken up by the sun , these types of curtains can also provide some energy savings because of their ability to block out super hot or cold temperatures!

We would bet all of our pennies that you would never think these beauties are $20! (curtainworks.com). It’s OK, we almost fainted too. Color block curtains allow the purchaser to customize them to whatever color scheme they may want or need, making it truly feel like you. Secretly loving it, be prepared for all of your friends’ jealous comments!
