Everyone loves an easy-to-use window treatment that poses no danger to children , allows you to control the light and transforms a room. Shutters have all of these advantages and add a whole new architectural feature to your Colorado Springs home.
Have you ever wondered if your custom drapes are made here in Colorado Springs? Or how custom drapes are made?
Your drapes are quite literally made by hand in a place called a drapery workroom. We have about five drapery workrooms in Colorado Springs currently. These are locally owned businesses and while we prefer to send your orders to workrooms in town, the size of the drapes make a difference.
Custom drapes can be placed on nearly any window in Colorado Springs and they will look beautiful if professionally designed. For example, bay windows are less common in new homes, but where a west-facing window does a beautiful job of framing Pike’s Peak, special care must be taken to design the window treatments.
What do arch windows, octagonal windows, bay windows and round windows have in common? It’s hard to find window treatments that fit. Hiring someone knowledgeable about interior design in Colorado Springs can save you an expensive process of trial and error when covering any oddly shaped windows in your home. Buying an expensive, specialty window covering without professional assistance can easily result in an undesired change to the look of the room.
Will just any hardware work on your custom drapes in Colorado Springs (or anywhere else)? Anything that holds it on the wall should work, right?
Let us tell you a story.
Pikes Peak Interiors works on projects alone and with other designers. We once participated in a project in which another designer had worked with the client to order floor-to-ceiling blackout drapes and hardware to go with it. We had an opportunity to review the choices and discovered something very important.
