5 Window Treatment Ideas for the Summer
Summer is the perfect time for a home refresh. With everything in bloom, you might have a few ideas blooming on upgrading certain parts of your home. Take your windows, for example. Whether you just purchased a new house or your current window treatments have seen better days, adding one of these five window treatment ideas for the summer will help refresh your space. Here are some of our favorite shades and blinds from Hunter Douglas for the summer season and beyond:

1). Sheer Shades
Do you want to let in sunlight without letting it take over the room? Sheer shades like Silhouette® Sheer Shades from Hunter Douglas soften those harsh rays while providing a soft glow throughout the room. Crafted with adjustable S-shaped vanes that appear to float between light-diffusing front and back sheer panels, Silhouette® Sheer Shades are the ultimate light-enhancing shade–a must-have for south-facing windows or sunny rooms.
2). Banded Shades
Summer is one of the most colorful seasons of the year. So, why not swap out some dark tones for chic hues? If you want to lighten up a space, Designer Banded Shades offer over 90 fabric colors that range from rich jewel tones to bright pops of color. The banded fabrics of these shades also provide exceptional light control to brighten up a space beyond color. Whether you’re going for coastal chic or bold brilliance, Designer Banded Shades are perfect for our creatives out there.
3). Wood Blinds
Is your house the hub of summer hosting? Then you will want window treatments that provide a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Crafted with genuine wood and available in several rich or neutral colors, Parkland® Wood Blinds give a hint of traditional structure and plenty of charming vibes. With wood harvested from responsibly managed forests, these blinds are ones you can feel good about investing in. If you’re looking for window blind ideas that involve layering for even more light control, privacy, and beauty, ask our team about Carole Fabrics™ Custom Drapery.
4). Cellular Shades
Are you tired of the summer heat causing your energy bills to soar? Duette® Cellular Shades from Hunter Douglas trap air at the glass to prevent temperature fluctuations throughout the year. In time, this can help reduce your home’s energy bills. Available in beautiful fabrics and opacities, these quality shades are a subtle addition to your windows that work hard to keep your home comfortable, elegant, and filled with diffused light.
5). Sheer Panels
Do you have large, oversized windows that let in too much summer sun? Then you will love Luminette® Sheer Panels. Designed specifically for wide windows, these elegant vertical panels offer soft, rotating fabric vanes attached to a sheer backing so you can enjoy natural light without the harsh glare. Gliding smoothly from side to side, these vertical blinds are excellent for all of your wide windows.
