Why Window Treatments Matter During the Holidays
When guests walk into your home, your windows are often one of the first things they notice. They frame your view, reflect your style, and help set the mood. Whether you’re going for warm and rustic or sleek and modern, custom holiday window solutions can transform your space in time for holiday entertaining.
But it’s not just about looks.
The right winter window coverings can:
- Insulate against chilly drafts
- Reduce glare on TVs and holiday lighting
- Offer privacy for overnight guests
- Integrate with your smart home system for effortless control
Let’s explore how you can deck the windows (not just the halls) with some of our most stylish and functional products.
1. Layer in Warmth with Cellular Shades
Known for their energy efficiency and soft look, cellular shades are a smart choice for cooler months. Their unique honeycomb construction traps air, helping regulate indoor temperatures and reducing your heating bill — a bonus during high-spend holiday months.
These shades come in a variety of colors and opacities, so you can keep things light and bright during the day or opt for blackout options in guest rooms for ultimate privacy and comfort.
2. Add Elegance with Natural Woven Shades
Create a cozy, organic holiday vibe with natural woven shades made from bamboo, jute, or grasses. These handwoven textures pair beautifully with festive greenery and rustic tablescapes. Top them with drapery side panels for added softness and insulation.
Our collection from Horizons and Alta Window Fashions includes multiple liner options, valance styles, and edge bindings — giving you complete control over both style and light filtration.
3. Keep It Sleek with Dual Shades
Christmas window décor ideas can sometimes be a lot, so balancing it with clean lines and modern function helps create harmony. Enter dual shades, also called zebra shades. These innovative shades feature alternating sheer and solid fabric bands that shift for full privacy or softly filtered light.
They’re ideal for entertaining spaces where you want light during the day and privacy at night — all while keeping a polished, contemporary look.
4. Welcome Guests with Classic Shutters
Want to make a statement in your dining room, guest bedroom, or entryway? Plantation shutters from Norman or Graber offer timeless elegance and outstanding durability. Their solid construction helps insulate your windows while adding instant architectural beauty.
Choose from wood or composite finishes to match your home’s style. Bonus: shutters are super easy to clean before (and after) your big holiday events!
5. Wow with Motorization & Home Automation
You’re already juggling a holiday to-do list — let your shades do the work! With motorized window treatments, you can open and close your shades with the touch of a button or even set automated schedules.
Using smart hubs like Alexa, Google Assistant, or Apple HomeKit, you can control your shades remotely — ideal when you’re traveling or setting the scene before guests arrive. Ask us about motorization options available for nearly every product we carry.
6. Make Your Kitchen Shine with Roller Shades
Holiday baking and cocktail mixing look even better with a clean, modern backdrop. Roller shades are easy to wipe down, great for high-traffic areas like kitchens and bathrooms, and come in endless fabric choices.
Choose a subtle texture or bold pattern to complement your holiday pop of colors. You can also add a cassette valance for a more finished look that hides the roller mechanism.
7. Go Glam with Sheer Shades
Want to set a romantic, glowing tone for your holiday parties or quiet winter evenings? Sheer shades diffuse natural light beautifully, creating an ethereal effect. When closed, the soft fabric vanes give you privacy without losing your view entirely.
They pair perfectly with fairy lights and candles — making your space sparkle without even trying.
8. Don’t Forget the Outdoors with Exterior Solar Shades
If you’re hosting holiday gatherings on a patio, deck, or sunroom, exterior solar shades from Insolroll help block glare and reduce heat — yes, even in the South Mississippi winter sun!
These shades can be motorized for convenience and are available in a range of openness levels to keep your space cool, comfortable, and guest-ready.
