Sheer Drapes

Making Your Room Look Better

The way the windows are built can make a room feel “off” occasionally. In a lot of New York City apartments, the windows might be too small for the walls, or they might be too high. These shapes can make a big room feel small or a small room feel full of stuff. Most people try to fix this with things they buy at the store, such as curtains or blinds, but those things usually make the problem worse instead of better by not addressing the underlying issues of window size and placement.

 We look at the bones of your room at Professional Shades Custom Window Treatments. We create custom sheer curtains designed to enhance the appearance of your space. We may make your windows look taller or broader than they really are by adjusting where the fabric starts and ends.

How Fabric Can Affect the Look of a Room

The way the room is set up is what makes it appear elegant. Hanging fabric right on the frame of a short window makes the ceiling feel low. We look at the whole wall as part of our plan. Putting the hardware higher than the window itself makes a longer line that draws the eye up.

We often see windows that are narrow or off-center in homes all over Essex County. In order to fix that we use wide layouts to make the glass look bigger and more centered. We can do the following because our work is only made to order:

• Add more fabric to the edges: This covers the wall and makes the opening look much bigger.
• Use custom light-filtering drapes: This lets us change the layout of your room without blocking out all the natural light.
• Make things look even: We balance windows that are off-center to make the room feel more organized.

Why Accurate Measurements Are Important

The “built-in” look only happens when the math is just right. We come to your house to measure the walls, floor, and window frames very cautiously.

• The Floor Connection: We make sure that the fabric is just the right amount above the floor. It looks like a mistake if it’s too short, and it collects dust if it’s too long.
• Stacking Width: We figure out how much space the fabric needs when it is pulled back. This makes sure you can still see everything in a crowded city.
• Hardware Strength: We choose the right rods and tracks that won’t sag over time and can handle the height of your walls.

Help With Moving and Fixing Things

Our lives change, but the windows stay the same. If you move to a new place in the surrounding metro area or want to move your current setup to a different room, the sizes may not match anymore.
We can help if your tracks are stuck or if the fabric needs to be cut down to fit a new floor height. We want to make sure that your investment still looks excellent, even if the layout of your home changes. We work on fixing and changing the professional hardware you already own so that it works for many years.
