Add a Layer to Your Windows

Fall is a cozy season, and you can reflect this ambiance by adding a layer to your current window treatments. If you have shades or blinds on a window, add drapery in autumn-inspired colors, like deep brown, rich plum, or burnt orange. Lightweight fabrics, like cotton blends, are ideal for warm climates. Consider adding warm wood blinds as a base layer for windows that already have drapes.

Play with Top Treatments and Hardware

Updating your window treatments for fall doesn’t have to be labor intensive. A wooden cornice adds rustic charm to a space, or a fabric valance can add depth and movement. If you opt for a fabric top treatment, ensure the color you choose is found elsewhere in the space, such as artwork or accent pillows. Switching out hardware is another simple way to welcome fall. Bronze and gold are great choices for a fall décor scheme, but a matte black finish also works. Fall is also an ideal time to take bold, decorative finials for a test drive.

Embrace the Comfy Aesthetic of Fall

Fall is all about inviting textures and welcoming colors. The folds of Vignette® Roman Shades are an exquisite way to lean into fall design and are available in several colors to complement the season, including cream, navy, and taupe. Alustra® Woven Textures® Roman Shades are ideal if you prefer an elegant aesthetic. They have enough textural appeal to be eye-catching without visually overwhelming the window.

Silhouette® Sheer Shades may seem like a summertime window treatment, but the sun doesn’t stop shining when the calendar changes to September. Sheer shades diffuse natural light into a warm glow, and Silhouette Halo™ Window Shadings feature unique double fabric vanes that rotate in every direction for precision light control. The ClearView® sheers option uses a specially designed black rear panel that provides the best view-through to enjoy spectacular fall sunsets.

Small Window Covering Ideas for Fall

Choosing coverings for small windows can be challenging because you want to enjoy light control and privacy without overshadowing the window's unique shape. Designer Roller Shades are an excellent solution for small windows because they fit neatly within the frame and are available in hundreds of fabrics, including textures and prints. You can enhance your fall color palette by choosing one fabric for the shade and a different, complementary color for the headrail.
