Your Conservatory And Decorating

A conservatory is a wonderful way to enjoy nature without actually being in nature

. Panes of beautiful glass are all that stand between you and the elements, which makes for a wonderful escape but leaves you with a unique decorating situation.

That is a whole lot of windows to choose treatments for! Thankfully, there are many different options available today; here are a few tips for choosing the best window treatments for your conservatory.

Accentuate:

The first thing you want to decide is whether you want a window treatment that will fade into the background unobtrusively or something that will accentuate the natural scene all around you. If you want to let nature shine all alone with no competition in your conservatory, sheer blinds are your best choice.

On the other hand, you may want to accentuate nature by choosing blinds that reflect the palette around you; natural wood is a good option. There are also various natural colours greens, browns, creams and blues.

Roof:

Conservatories are unique in that they are 90% glass or more, this means there are angles that are more difficult to cover. You will need to decide if you are going to use window treatments for the entire room, which includes the ceiling. One option you may want to consider is a pleated blind that will disappear when fully retracted and provide shade during the summer months.

Installation:

Once you have chosen your favourite conservatory blinds you will have the issue of installation. If you are good with do it yourself projects you may be able to install these blinds yourself. However, even for the handiest conservatories pose a few unique challenges. Measuring will be a chore to say the least and in order to create a wonderful area the measurements will need to be exact. Of course then there is the business of actually hanging your conservatory blinds. Many retailers offer professional installation for a small added fee or include full measuring and fitting services within their quotations.

Benefits of Conservatory Blinds:

When you have a room made of mostly glass, sunlight can be pretty intense. During the cold winter months this can be a benefit, you can enjoy the snow all around you while basking in warm sunshine. However, in the summer intensified sunshine can be quite uncomfortable which is where conservatory blinds with solar reflective materials can come in handy. The right blinds can give you superior sun and glare protection, allowing you to enjoy the conservatory all year round.

Conclusion:

A conservatory makes a nice addition to any home, but it also presents a unique decorating situation. This is particularly true when it comes to covering all these windows. Conservatory blinds come in many colour and style varieties to suit nearly any taste and can be motorised to make opening and closing your many blinds convenient and simple. Bask in the sun during cold winter months and block harmful UV rays in the summer by installing stylish conservatory blinds.
