Becoming a parent is an exciting and crazy time. Choosing window treatments for the nursery should be happy and fun, and the process shouldn’t add to the stress. At The Blind Guy near Kalispell, we have a variety of window treatments perfect for your new baby’s room, and we would love to help you select just the right ones with some simple tips.

Tip #1. Don’t Wait Til ‘Someday’

Our first piece of advice for outfitting your baby’s room is to not wait until the last minute. You will want to take some time to choose the right style and color. Window treatments can add a pop of color or a soft neutral touch to a room, and you do not want to feel rushed when choosing. Whether you’re decorating with a theme in mind or are just looking for pieces to grow with your child, we will have something to fit your needs.

Tip #2. Try Roller Shades for Versatile Needs

Roller shades are versatile, and convenient. We offer several varieties from Hunter Douglas, Alta, and Graber.

• Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades offer the best benefits of a few different window coverings. They operate like a traditional roller shade, filter light gently through double fabric like a sheer shade and help keep your baby’s room a consistent temperature with the insulating cellular construction. They are also cordless which will help keep your child safe as they grow.
• Designer Roller Shades, also from Hunter Douglas, offer clean lines for a streamlined look. They are great for a minimalist impact on room decor or choose from over 400 fabrics to make a bold statement of color. They also look lovely when paired with drapery. Available in semi-opaque and room-darkening opacities with the smallest light gap in the industry, you can’t go wrong with designer roller shades.
• Alta® roller shades are another great choice for a nursery. They provide a barrier between damaging UV rays and the beautiful furnishings in the room. They are available in over 500 fabrics to complement any style decor and are Greenguard certified to ensure the air in the baby's room is easier to breathe.
• Graber Lightweaves® Roller Shades are the ideal choice for the fashion-forward nursery. The colors, textures, and patterns are all carefully selected to be perfectly in style. Every fabric is also offered in opacities ranging from sheer to blackout, so you won’t have to choose between substance or style.

Tip #3. Roman Shades Add Classic Flair

Roman shades are a popular choice for a nursery as they are easy to adjust for light and privacy and they add a traditional structural look to the window. They are available in a wide variety of fabrics and textures, and the full fold style has a tailored look for a more refined aesthetic.

• Graber offers two collections of Roman shades. For neutral shades, crisp lines, and a minimalist look the Graber Fresco Roman collection is where you should look. The Graber Artisan collection is stocked with new fabrics that can coordinate with any decor, from traditional to contemporary. Regardless of which style suits you, all Graber Roman shades are hand-crafted for a superb tailored finish. Your Roman shades will also have individually selected, color coordinated controls and components for an ethereal finishing touch.
• Vignette® Modern Roman Shades from Hunter Douglas feature luxurious fabrics, such as silk, linen and tweed that can be elevated with choices from The Alustra Collection. The Rolling Style is available in full or flat fold, and for shallow mounting depths, the Stacking Style is available in full fold. A bonus of the Vignette® line is Accents by the Yard™. All fabrics are available in cut yardage to create individual accents such as throw pillows.
  

Tip #4. Be Serious About Safety

Your satisfaction is a priority of ours, but so is your family’s safety. When possible, go for cordless options. Move cribs and furniture away from windows to prevent potential falls and avoid floor-length treatments as they will be very tempting for new crawlers to pull on.
