The holidays are full of festive parties, rooms filled with friends and decorations, guests visiting and an overall joyful ambiance. But once the final days of December hit, it can bring the decorating blues. As the tree and other decorations are removed, rooms now look dull and sparse. And as you reposition the furniture back into place you notice the window treatments you’ve had for years. The fabric looks dusty, the edges are dirty and a small tear has started at the hem. You wonder if you need to replace them or is cleaning and repairing an option? Well don’t put it off any longer. January is the perfect time to freshen up any room by taking care of your window treatments.
If your drapes need to be cleaned or repaired, Spindletop Draperies’ staff can take care of the whole process for you. Our professionals will arrive at your home to take down window treatments, transport them at our local workroom for cleaning and repairs and then return to your home to professionally reinstall all treatments. Or if you’ve been thinking of new window treatments or even adding some blinds, Spindletop can help with that too. Here are some new products to check out for the new year:
Modern Roller Shades
Remember those old roller shades at grandma’s house. Well they’ve been updated so they still offer a compact design but with a new stylish look. Sonnette® Roller Shades by Hunter Douglas combine the dimensional, energy-efficient construction of cellular shades with the clean lines and simplicity of a roller shade. The innovative curved shape gently diffuses light, providing ambiance and character to all angles of your room. And the cordless construction means that Sonnette® shades are safe for homes with young children and pets. Choose from four fabric collections and 48 gorgeous colors that range from neutral grays to vibrant red. All fabrics are available in both semi-opaque and room-darkening options to provide the light control you desire.
Alustra® Woven Textures
Every element of the Alustra® Woven Textures® Collection is inspired by design. Fabrics are sourced from around the world to create a truly special window treatment. Alustra® Woven Textures are available in roller shades, roman shades and Skyline® gliding window panels. The design-forward textiles in the collection are made with unique combinations of fibers and textures offering a light-filtering alternative to solar screens and other woven woods. Alustra® Woven Textures roman shades offer a two-shades-in-one feature. From soft, filtered light to total light control and privacy, the independent liner option provides complete versatility and ultimate functionality with the clean look of a single head rail.
PowerView® Automated Operating System
Program your window treatments to the exact position you want and then control and schedule them with PowerView®. You can operate your PowerView® settings using the PowerView® app, Pebble® Control, or with voice commands using devices from Amazon and, coming soon, Apple® HomeKit™. The PowerView® App allows you to set “scenes” of how you want your shades positioned. Set your scenes to operate independently, whether you are at home or away. You can even schedule scenes to operate with the sunrise or sunset based on your location which helps with heat retention and energy loss.
And the best part of all these great items is that they are available from Spindletop Draperies who you’ve known and trusted since 1972. Just give us a call to set-up up a FREE Shop-at-Home appointment or schedule to visit our showroom to view working models of Hunter Douglas shades, look at fabrics and check out the PowerView Automated System. We look forward to adding life to your rooms through window treatments in 2018.
