Aug 24, 2015
Installing vinyl windows in Kansas City is a great way to add durability as well as character to your home. However, unless you want your interior design to feel bland and un-lived in, you’re going to want to style your windows in order to spruce up your interior design. The following are a few ideas that we recommend to help style your vinyl windows:
- Painting – One of the most cost-effective ways to style your vinyl windows is to simply paint the mullions, frame and sill of your windows. This also gives you a lot of design flexibility since you can choose any color you want. For an elegant and sophisticated look, we suggest using black or dark brown – these colors will also help boost your resale value. If you want to make more of a statement and want to highlight the view, go with a bolder color, like blue.
- Swing Arm Curtains – Traditional curtains can be kind of a hassle to install, not to mention to open and close on a daily basis. Swing arm curtains are an excellent alternative, since you’ll never have to worry about pushing or pulling your curtains open or shut – you can just swing the arms that hold your curtains to the side to open up your room to the view outdoors.
- Wood Cornices – Installing wood cornices above your windows is a great way to add a classic look. Cornices can be used to create a warm, rustic look or for a more sleek, modern look as well. They are quite flexible in that they can be used with painted windows, curtains, wood boxes and more.
