Are you planning to sell your home in 2024 or simply want to give it a luxurious refresh? Enhancing your home's value can be achieved with simple smart and stylish choices, especially when it comes to window dressings. Here's how you can make your home look expensive both inside and out (even if you're on a budget!). 

Opt for Made-to-Measure Window Dressings

 

It probably comes as no shock to hear this coming from us, but one of the best ways to easily add value to your home is by choosing made to measure blinds and curtains. Unlike ready-made options, these window dressings are tailored to fit your windows perfectly, ensuring a polished, professional look. This attention to detail can make a significant difference in how your home is perceived by both potential buyers, and guests.

Install Shutters for a Bespoke Look

 

Incorporating shutters can dramatically transform a space. Shutters offer a timeless and elegant window dressing solution, providing not just privacy and light control but also adding a bespoke architectural element to your windows. They're particularly effective for enhancing your home's curb appeal, contributing to that 'expensive from the outside' look.

Floor-to-Ceiling Curtains for a High End Feel

 

To create a sense of luxury and height, consider floor-to-ceiling curtains. This design trick creates the illusion of higher ceilings, making your space appear larger. Whilst also adding an element of sophistication. It's a simple trick to make your home look expensive while maintaining a cosy and welcoming atmosphere.
