It may be difficult to believe, but summer has nearly arrived! The numerous hours of sunshine mean our brightest rooms have started up their siren song, begging us to come sit and read, or nap, or take our lunch in the natural light. For those fortunate enough to have sunrooms, also called Florida rooms, these days are a special treat not to be missed.

However, you may not always want your sunroom to take in the full brunt of sunshine. The warmest days may call for a bit of shelter and shade. The right window treatments can offer you a bit of shade while still allowing that gorgeous golden light to fill your sunny room!

Living in Florida, you know that the one thing not lacking here is sunshine. But all that sunshine can make your home uncomfortable, and could potentially cause damage to your home and furnishings. There is a way to keep your home comfortable and reduce damage from ultraviolet rays: solar screen shades. With warm summer months on the horizon, we wanted to put the spotlight on solar screen shades as our featured product of the month!

Stylish, striking, and timeless, exterior shutters can add a gorgeous accent to the outside of any home. These window accents make a statement you cannot duplicate with paint or other accessories. Exterior shutters allow for contrasting paint, textural interest, and a visual interest like no other!

Selecting the best shutters, as well as ensuring their proper installation, will make all the difference when employing this classical window décor. It’s especially important to choose the correct materials, shape, and installation methods to get the best results. Taking a little extra time will pay off in both curb appeal and a long-lasting investment in your home!

When looking to update your window treatments, many people primarily consider aesthetics and functionality. However, it is equally as important to consider durability and maintenance when looking to invest in window treatments. 

Window treatments transform the look of our homes, but they serve more purpose than simple aesthetics. Your blinds, shutters, or shades can also play an important role when it comes to your comfort in your home! 

Whether you want to keep a room warm when the weather has turned cold, or you want to keep the hot temperatures of summer outside where they belong, there’s a window treatment to suit your needs. This begs the question: Should you change your window treatments as the seasons change?
