We’ve all seen our share of window treatment projects we’re not so sure about. The ones that make us shake our heads and ask, “What is this?!?” Scrolling on social media I see bad ideas, misplaced advice, misinformation and just plain stupidness. Do you think you really think that you should hang a drapery using shower rings?Here are 10 common window fashion mistakes and how to avoid them.
#1 Not Dressing the Window

Window treatments often turn into a design challenge or major investment, but let’s face it: If you neglect your windows in favor of a different design focus, you’ll be left with a bare view. Every window needs some kind of dressing. Window fashions fill the blackhole; keep out heat or cold, control sunlight and most importantly finish off the room. After all I am WC pro; so it’s a cardinal sin not to treat windows in some way.

Almost time for Prom Walk

Now that’s the way to end a trade show! #iwcevision

We started Decor Tours in order to “show not tell” other designers the amazing resources and opportunities available, once you look beyond the expected showrooms and sample books.

In the 10+ years we’ve been bringing designers on tour, we’ve honed our focus, creating small-group experiences that foster connections, encourage actionable inspiration, and provide valuable design insight and information. All while indulging in beautiful locations, delicious food, great companionship, stellar shopping opportunities, and wonderful surprises, in order to deliver on our promise of Every Day Extraordinary.

At Decor Tours we take Diana Vreeland’s mantra that “the eye has to travel” to heart. If you’d like to be kept up-to-date send us an inquiry and we’ll save you a seat. #decortours #theeyehastotravel #everydayextraordinary
