Why Choose Lightweight Window Coverings?
You need to protect your home, your environment, and you, from the sun all the time. You can reduce the amount of heat that comes into your home, especially in areas like Scottsdale and Phoenix, where the sun’s rays can, at times, become almost unbearable. Light diffusing window coverings allow some light in while keeping a good portion of light out. By diffusing the light that enters a room, it can disperse that light softly throughout the room, spreading it lightly and gently into even remote corners, while protecting the immediate vicinity of its entrance to harsh rays. Whatever window coverings you desire for your home, let us provide you with information so you can make the most informed choices possible.

Redecorate Your Home Decor With Elements of Texture
A different type of fabric throw can contrast with the texture of the seating in a room in order to provide interest and tactile experience. Window treatments can provide the same feeling.

A grass weave shade may evoke memories of a fabulous beach trip or a reed shade may complement a design aesthetic made up of foreign travel and one of a kind finds. And don’t forget, a patio shade adds texture to the “rooms” you have outside! To get started call Gallery of Shades today at 480-643-0014. https://goo.gl/9q7zY

Which Types of Home Decor Calls for a Valance?
Typically, a valance can be used to complete a formal feel in a specific room, such as a formal living room or a master bedroom (though not all valances feel formal!). In some situations, the homeowner may want to disguise the curtain rod, in a bathroom for example. Bathrooms tend to be smaller spaces where one might want to incorporate a "little touch" of decor. Still, other window treatments just simply feel a little incomplete without a valance. For example, half-shutters, a very popular lower window treatment looks a bit naked on top. But a valance balances out the treatment, drawing the eye to the whole window, and completing the design.

Considering Safe Window Treatments for Baby's Nursery
While your baby may not walk for many months, you should consider window treatments that protect her throughout her young years.
