Find the Best Shades for Your Home

Whether you’re all about the looks or you prefer a more practical solution—or if you’re somewhere in between—you’ll find a shade to suit your needs. We’ll make sure of it! Here’s how to get your perfect custom shades online:

Step 1: Pick the right style

Of course you want your window coverings to look great and enhance your home decor. But have you considered other factors? Maybe you’re looking for something that insulates well, or an ensemble of rich textures and layers, or a product that’s simple and easy to use. No matter what your priorities are, we’ve got you covered!

Popular styles of shades for windows:

• Cellular shades, also known as honeycomb shades, offer superior insulation and come with light-filtering or blackout options.
• Roller shades offer a sleek look and great light control, while also preserving your view out.
• Solar shades are similar to roller shades, but offer more protection against harmful UV rays.
• Pleated shades and Roman shades are both great options if you’re looking for a bolder, more textured look to your shades.
• Bamboo shades, also called woven wood shades, offer charming appeal in a rich tapestry of natural fibers.
