Protecting our Interior Decorating Investment

The sun serves as an important source to our  existence, but it's strong power can also have detrimental effects on home furnishings.
 
When decorating your home, one very important element to include in your plan are the window coverings. Besides aesthetic reasons, window treatment serves a vital role in protecting our interior decor investment. Just as we protect our skin from the sun, we also need to take precaution in protecting the furnishing in our homes from fading, drying out or cracking. Even if your furniture is not positioned in direct sunlight, over a period of time if sunlight is entering the room, you will start to see the fabric fade on your furniture and accessories, as well as on wall paint and wall arts.
 
When planning what type of window treatment to use, answering these 3 questions will help with your decision:
 
1. How much sunlight is your furnishings currently exposed to?
2. Can the furnishings be moved around in the room to reduced their exposure to direct sunlight?
3. Will the furnishings in the room be exposed to indirect sunlight at anytime of the day?
 
Window treatment stores can help with your selection, or contact a professional interior decorator to help with your decorating plan that incorporates your window treatments.
