Window Treatment Hacks to Boost Your Mood
At Design 5 Ltd., we know that home is the place where you kick back, relax, and unwind. If your home isn’t giving you that peaceful vibe, it’s time to make some changes. The good news is that even small changes can make a big difference. Here are a few ways to make your home more of the sanctuary it is meant to be.
Tidy Up
Cleaning up may feel like a chore, but it’s actually a great form of self-care. You know you need to clean, and having it hanging over your head can cause stress and anxiety. Also, dust on fixtures, such as blinds, can trigger allergy and asthma attacks. It’s also important to vacuum your fabric shades and drapes regularly using your vacuum’s brush attachment. You can also use a dry or very very lightly damp microfiber cloth to carefully remove the dust from your surfaces. While you’re at it, consider cleaning the windows themselves. Natural light contains Vitamin D, which can help improve your mood and sleep at night.
Minor Maintenance
Do you begin weekend warrior projects but never seem to have the time to finish them? Minor things, such as touching up paint or replacing worn or broken window treatments, can go a long way toward making your home feel more peaceful. If you prefer a minimalist style, consider Designer Roller Shades when you upgrade those old, out-of-date window coverings-and let our experienced installers ensure a perfect fit for your new window coverings while you take a break from maintaining your home.
How Light Affects Your Mood
We can’t have a conversation about mood and well-being without mentioning the benefits of quality sleep. Many Americans are affected by insomnia, and experts agree that keeping your bedroom as dark as possible will promote good sleep.
Duette® Honeycomb Shades are one of the best choices for your bedroom when it comes to an insulating blind. They are available in room-darkening opacities and feature LightLock™ channels that minimize gaps and light leaks and reduce outside noise by up to 70%. Oh, and did we mention they also help keep your bedroom at a comfortable temperature?
On the flip side, keeping your entire home in the dark all day can be unhealthy. We suggest light-filtering window treatments in rooms where you spend a good portion of the day, such as your living room. Silhouette® Window Shadings provide the perfect combination of sunlight and privacy with adjustable fabric vanes suspended between dual sheer panels. You’ll still view the outside with the comfort of knowing the outside cannot see into your home.
Other Tips & Tricks
A visually uninteresting room can make you feel bored and uninspired, but a too busy space can put your senses into overdrive, making it difficult to relax. EverWood® Alternative Wood Blinds with 2.5” slats will reduce the number of lines across your window. Wide slats also mean fewer light gaps and a clearer view of nature when you open them. Complete the uncluttered aesthetic by choosing a cordless lift system.
Another easy way to make your room more visually appealing is to install shades using an outside mount. An outside mount prevents your shades or blinds from blocking part of your window when they are fully raised and maximizes your view. Installing hardware 4-6” above the frame will make your ceiling appear higher and your room feel larger.
