Brainstorming is fun, especially now, during the Information Age. When I was little, brainstorming meant that I took a piece of notebook paper and drew a bunch of bubbles across it with messy connected lines and scribbled ideas inside each bubble. As I grew, I clipped magazine pictures and glued them inside the bubbles… It took a lot of time and was entirely unsustainable in my adulthood brainstorming sessions. Now, brainstorming is my Pinterest boards and Facebook likes and Instagram follows. Everything is so neatly saved and categorized in my apps….
I promise I’m going somewhere with this.
Okay, so in my searches and “pins,” I’ve come across some awesome window treatment ideas. And not just the kind that sit forever in your Pinterest world with no real-world company to help you accomplish the looks.

Exciting, right? - Double up
Often times, window treatments are presented as “this or” But, do not feel limited! Do you want roller shades and floor-length curtains on the same window? Go ahead! Do you want wooden blinds and a valance? Go ahead! Various window treatments can function separately for light control and function while complementing one another. - Go bold
Do you have a neutral pallet that could use a little spice? Be daring and try a bold color or pattern to bring some drama into an otherwise timid/mild space. Consider paisley or geometric shapes to contrast a flat wall or minimalist décor. Pattern mixing with complementary colors is also a bold direction to take any kitchen, bedroom, or guest bathroom. - Opt for “puddling”
Curtains which “puddle” on the floor (AKA have extra length which gathers on the floor beneath the window) is such a striking look. This idea has become very popular, as it emphasizes the luxury of a space.
