This can be accomplished in so many ways and we can make your window dreams come true through expertise, product knowledge and complete budgetary understanding.

Seasonal Changes and Décor Transitions Go Hand in Hand!

While summer's lush beauty transitions to the autumnal festival of color, our windows frame nature's more amazing works of art outdoors, and the visual passage of time. It's so tempting to bring autumn's rich color palette indoors, and your windows can be the perfect place to transition from old style to newer and fresher, all without starting from scratch or busting a budget.

So many of us just love our crisp, "hard" window fashions for their trim, tailored look (i.e. shutters). A great way to update that harder, finished look is by adding a soft component with a layer of drapery that makes windows feel more luxurious, tailored, and even more comfortable.

Adding this layer can be as simple as introducing a beautiful custom fabric valance to the top off your current "hard" window treatment, or as expansive as framing your windows with gorgeous soft fabric custom draperies

It's a lot easier than you think when you call a Window Fashions Professional like One Stop Decorating to help make your window ideas come true. We'll work within your budget, share ideas, and update your room(s) to make them even “more” beautiful. Just give us a call to set up your FREE in-home consultation.

Types of Drapes!

In today’s market, there are so many styles of draperies to choose from… it can be overwhelming (to say the least). Not only do they provide privacy, light control and insulation… they can also define and transform your living space.

Our designers will work with you to take the guesswork out… helping you choose not only the style, but also the fabric and hardware.

Call or stop by (we offer free-home consultations) and be sure to visit our website or Facebook page for continuing “behind the curtain” tips and advice.

Pleated

Pleated refers to how the top of the drapery material is gathered. There are many styles of pleated drapes available. There are pinch, goblet, pencil, box, inverted, fan, rolled cuff, butterfly, french and many more. The type of pleat used will dictate the style of the rods and/or finials.

Flat Panel

These drapes are not gathered or pleated at the top and they usually just hang from metal rings. Decorative rods and finials are an important element in the overall design.

Tab Top and Tie Top

These drapes have tabs or ties at the top which slide over a rod. Decorative rods and finials are an important element in the overall design.

Rod Pocket

Rod pocket drapes have a pocket for the drapery rod to slide through. The drape edges and headers are straight for a tailored style or ruffled for a feminine look. Usually, the rod is unseen.

Grommet

Grommets are metal rings embedded into the top of the drapery material and come in different finishes such as brass, nickel, copper and colors like black or white. The grommets are large enough for the drapery rod to pass through. Decorative rods and finials are an important element in the overall design.

Back-Tab

Back-tab drapes have pockets sewn onto the back through which a rod is inserted. The tabs and the curtain rod are hidden behind fabric panels when viewed from the finished side.

Ripplefold

Ripplefold drapes are sewn flat and hemmed on all sides. Snap tape (fabric that has snaps sewn onto it every few inches) is then sewn onto the top of the drape which attaches to a custom traverse style rod. They are similar in appearance to the pinch pleated drape except they use less fabric, can compress back fully and can span a distance up to 32 feet.
