Category: Blinds-Curtains-Draperies - Topic: Window Coverings For Your Large Windows
Hanging blinds, curtains or draperies on large windows will not only allow you to save energy in cooler months, the blinds, curtains or draperies can be used to add a unique style and mood to your room. The most important thing when considering blinds is the weight transfer that will occur when the blinds are moved. For instance, using faux or real wood blinds on large windows is not recommended.
A good choice for larger windows when you aren't concerned with controlling light are silhouettes. They come in every color imaginable and can create that shear look through the windows. If you do want to control lighting thing about using honeycombs with a vertical glide. Honeycombs on a glider (as well as many others) are insulated and will not only provide you extra insulation throughout the cooler months, they will also allow you to easily open and close to control sunlight inside your home.
Whichever window covering you decide on, make sure it is professionally installed. Ask for references on the installer as well.
