History of styles: How to dress up windows using historic treatments

Window treatments confer privacy while boosting your room’s d�cor. They keep homes warmer in winter and cooler in summer. While most people look to save on energy bills with window treatments, some homeowners like to go for historic window treatments because of their elegance and unique features. Here are some historic window treatments that you can install in your window to get historic feel:

  • Interior Shutters: They were introduced during ancient Greece. They block sunlight and provide proper ventilation. Many retailers and manufacturers provide interior shutters in wide varieties which may give your home the ancient Greece look.

  • Lace curtains: Lace has been used in decorating homes for centuries. It became popular during 19th century. Today, lace is available in various forms such as panels, swags & jabots and lace tiebacks.

  • Roller shades: Though roller shades were more popular among Dutch and Germans in the 19th century, but still many homes prefer installing them because of their decorative edge.

  • Blinds: Blinds have a rich history in interior decoration. Today, metal blinds are popular in modern homes. To get the ancient Egyptian decoration look, install wooden blinds.

You can get customized window treatments in the market, which can mimic historic window coverings while providing a tailored aesthetic.
