Crush Your New Year Resolutions with the Right Window Treatment

Updated December 2023

New year, new you? It’s that time of year where we make resolutions for the upcoming year. This might surprise you, but having the right window blinds or shades can actually help you achieve your goals. Take a look at some common New Year Resolutions and see which window covering or feature you need!

Exercise More with Top Down Bottom Up Shades

For those who prefer home workouts, a Top Down Bottom Up Shade is great if your TV is by a window facing the street. Keep the bottom down for privacy, and lower the top part to let in light. You can focus on hitting your PR without worrying that your neighbors are seeing you sweat.

Save Money with Cellular Shades

Save green by going green with cellular shades; they are known for being energy efficient. The “cell” construction traps air and provides insulation from the heat and cold. Plus, the soft fabric diffuses light and reduces heat from entering the room, saving you money on electricity. Be sure to ask yourself these five questions to get the best cellular shade for your home!

Improve Quality Time with the Cordless Lift System

Focus on what really matters: creating memories with friends and family! All our products come with a Cordless Lift option, which is the safest choice for homes with young children and pets. As a bonus, your room will automatically have a clean look once it’s free of dangling cords.

Sleep More with Room Darkening Shades

Blackout, or room darkening, shades are your wingman for this resolution vs normal window blinds. In fact, blackout window coverings block up to 98% of outside light, and our Designer Sleep Shades eliminate any lingering light with their standard side tracks.

If one of our room darkening shades isn’t your style, you can always upgrade to a room darkening liner for your current window covering.

Reinvent Yourself & Get Window Coverings to Match

Reinventing yourself can mean a lot of different things, but let’s say you want to focus on your personal style. You want to go more maximalist, minimalist, etc. New window blinds or shades can help.

In terms of appearance, for a traditional atmosphere, check out roman shades, wood blinds, faux wood blinds, and shutters. For a modern look, consider panel tracks, dual shades, or roller shades

And for those who want to really stand out, we offer several patterns in our roller shades, roman shades and drapery. We personally love the sophisticated patterns in our V&A William Morris Collection and the geometric design options in our Black And White Light Filtering Roller Shades!

Travel More with Motorized Window Blinds and Shades

Motorization can reduce your stress while traveling, especially if you pair it with the SelectConnect Bridge. Can’t remember if you lowered the shades? Use your smartphone to check and adjust them no matter where you are (with WiFi, of course).

While we have a variety of shades that can be upgraded with a Motorized Lift, at this time, our Architect Wood Blinds and LEVOLOR® Wood Blinds are the only window blinds that provide the feature.
