Finding the Perfect Dining Room Window Treatment
Your dining room is the gathering place for your home; it’s where you have formal holiday dinners, where your family gets together for game night, and where you host your friends. It should be as warm and inviting as you are, which is why you need the perfect dining room window treatments for it. At Budget Blinds of North Glendale, we have numerous styles and designs that are sure to match your taste and your budget.
Finding the Right Dining Room Window Treatments
There are so many options to choose from that we’d like to highlight our favorites.
Panels and Drapery
Panels and drapery are one of the more popular dining room window treatments. Used on their own and especially when combined with other window treatments, they’re a great way to add softness, texture, and color.
They’re perfect for wall windows as well. Drapes with the room a dramatic and regal feel, without overpowering the space. Or, if you want to make your windows feel larger, hang your drapes close to the ceiling and/or extend them beyond each side of the window. This is also a great way to reduce light gaps and reduce energy loss at the window.
Layering Drapery and Shades
Layering dining room drapery and shades not only creates visual appeal and dimension but also increases energy efficiency and gives you more ways to control light. You can easily pair more sheer shades with drapes to achieve total light control and privacy, without adding a liner behind the shades.
If your dining room is small, you might want a shade with a cleaner look. If your dining room is larger, a more colorful, dramatic shade could work better with alight-colored drape to frame it.
If your shade is solid, maybe consider a drape with a colorful pattern. Whatever you choose, pairing drapes and shades can really add drama and dimension to your dining room.
Dining Room Roman Shades
Roman shades offer a wide variety of options that can match any taste, window, and style.

Give us a call at Budget Blinds of North Glendale to schedule your free consultation today!
Roman shades give off a soft, yet structured feel. They’re sophisticated, clean, and scream style. They’ll make your dining room one of the most beautiful rooms in the house while lighting in a soft stream of light. At night, you’ll have the privacy you and your guests want to keep the party going without any prying eyes.
Woven Woods Shades
If you want a natural look that’s not as heavy or expensive as wood blinds, try woven wood shades. Made from natural materials, such as bamboo, grasses, reed,s, and jute, woven wood shades offer a one-of-a-kind look to your dining room—plus, they’re a nice complement to wood dining room furniture.
Since they don’t provide as much privacy as other window treatments, woven wood shades work well in living areas like dining rooms. If you’re worried about privacy or light control, you can add a liner to them as well. You don’t see it from the inside, but you’ll immediately get the privacy you desire.
Additionally, woven wood shades are extremely versatile and offered in many different shades.
Add A Valence Above the Window
If you’re not a fan of drapes, but you want to frame your window and add more dimension to your dining room, consider adding a valance. Valances are perfect for shades and blinds, as they hide the bulkier parts of them. They also allow you to add color, texture, and fun patterns to any space, without it feeling overwhelming.
We’re fans of bold colors when it comes to valances. Pair them with a lighter or neutral-tone blind or shade to really make them pop.
This is due to their size: a correctly sized and installed valence will fit neatly above your window. You won’t have to worry about tripping or pushing drapes out of the way, but you’ll still achieve a similar stylish effect.
