Super Powers of Window Treatments

Window treatments are more than just decorations. They have some serious superpowers that can make your room (and your whole house) look better. Many people don't realize how much of a difference they can make!

Here are some of the main benefits:

• Become an Energy Saver: They help keep your house at the perfect temperature.
• Be the Boss of Light and Privacy: You decide when it’s bright and private.
• Protect Your Stuff: They act like a shield against the sun.
• Level Up Your Style: They add a huge dose of personality to your room.

Let's break down these incredible powers!

Power #1: Super Energy Efficiency

Did you know your windows can actually help you save money? It’s true! Think about those super-hot summer days we get here in Lewiston. The sun beats down and can make your room feel like an oven, forcing your air conditioner to work overtime. With the right window treatments, you can block out that intense sun. Just lower your shades or close your blinds, and poof! Less light means less heat. Your room stays cooler, and you don't have to blast the AC as much.

What about winter? When the weather gets chilly along the Snake River, your windows can help too! On a sunny winter day, you can open them up wide. Let all that free sunshine pour in and warm up your room naturally. This means your heater gets a break. Using your window treatments smartly means your family can save money on energy bills all year round. How cool is that?

Power #2: Control Light and Privacy

This is a big one. You should be in control of your own space, and window treatments give you that power.

• Light Control: Maybe you're a night owl or work different hours. When you need to sleep during the day, a bright, sunny room is your enemy. Blackout shades can make your room a cozy cave, perfect for sleeping anytime. Or, if you want to watch a movie without a glare on the screen, you can easily adjust your blinds to get the lighting just right. You're the director of your room's lighting!
• Privacy Control: If you have neighbors nearby, you might not want them to see into your room all the time. With window treatments, you can easily get the privacy you want. Close them up for a quiet evening or hang out. It’s your room, your rules! You decide who gets to see in.

Power #3: Protect Your Treasures

The sun is fantastic, but its UV rays can be pretty harsh. Just like you wear sunscreen to protect your skin, your stuff needs protection too. Sunlight streaming through a window day after day can fade your things.

What kind of stuff?

• Your Flooring: That cool carpet or hardwood floor can get discolored in sunny spots.
• Your Furniture: The sofa or your favorite chair fabric can fade.
• Your Artwork: Posters and pictures can lose their vibrant colors.

Window treatments act like sunscreen for your room. Blocking or filtering the sunlight keeps your favorite things looking new for much longer.

What Kind of Window Treatments Can You Get?

At Skelton’s Carpet One in Lewiston, we have a huge selection of both "hard" and "soft" window treatments. This just means we have options made of solid materials (like wood or vinyl) and options made of fabric. Let's explore some of the most popular types!

Blinds

Blinds are a classic for a reason! They are made of individual slats that you can tilt, raise, or lower. This gives you amazing control over light and privacy.

• Wood Blinds give a warm, classic, and natural look. They are sturdy and look fantastic in almost any room.
• Faux Wood Blinds: Want the look of wood but need something a bit tougher? Faux wood is perfect. It's great for places with moisture, like bathrooms or kitchens, because it won't warp.
• Vertical Blinds: Do you have a big sliding glass door or a wide window? Vertical blinds are your answer! Instead of going up and down, they open from side to side.

Shades

Shades are made from a single piece of fabric or material. They can be opened by rolling, gathering, or folding them up. They offer a softer, cleaner look than blinds.

• Roller Shades are super simple and modern. They're a single piece of material that rolls up neatly at the top of your window. You can get them in all kinds of colors and patterns.
• Roman Shades: These are super stylish. When you raise them, the fabric folds into beautiful, soft pleats. It's a very elegant look.
• Cellular (Honeycomb) Shades: These are the rockstars of energy efficiency! They are designed with little pockets or "cells" that look like a honeycomb from the side. These cells trap air, a barrier to keep heat out in the summer and cold out in the winter. Our top-selling Duette® Honeycomb Shades are famous for this!

Shutters

For a timeless and super durable option, check out shutters. These are built right into your window frame and have louvers (like slats) to open and close. They add value to your home and have a clean, classic look that never goes out of style. They’re like built-in furniture for your windows!
