Shades

A shade is a fabric window covering that can be pulled up by either a roller or pleats in the fabric. Shades offer warmth, as well as privacy and protection. At Decorating Depot, we offer the widest selection of name brand shades at affordable prices. Each shade is custom-made to your measurements, and you have an incredible range of colors, patterns, and styles from which to choose.

When choosing window shades, consider whether you want the room to be a part of a larger theme in the home, or a distinct entity. What is the feel of the room? Do you want to walk in and feel a sense of elegance and luxury, or open and breezy comfort? Are you seeking a warm and casual look, or a chic and modern look?

You also will want to take into consideration any centerpieces you want to highlight, such as art, furniture, or antiques. Any family heirlooms and heritage pieces are also possibilities. Consider the window’s position in relation to these centerpieces–if the window is right next to the room’s highlight, you’ll probably want a neutral window shade that doesn’t detract from your showpiece. If the window is far from your centerpiece or highlight, consider using the window as a color counterpoint within the room and choose softer shades of colors present within your art or antiques.

Remember to incorporate your lifestyle and your loves. Family photos and even old mementos can take center stage in a room, and you can choose your shades so that their colors complement the colors in these photos or mementos. If you’re filling the room with sepia-toned photos, for example, choosing a complementary shade of pale ocher for your window shades makes for a unified color scheme.
