Each season brings a fresh set of weather conditions to prepare your home for. From blackout blinds to block out the bright, summer sun, to thermal blinds keeping your home cosy in winter, having the right window dressing can keep your home ready for any climate.

Discover the best way to arrange your window dressings to match the weather outside.

 

Dressing your windows for spring

 

 

Spring is an energetic and colourful time of year that’s full of blooming flowers and the buzz of nature reawakened. However, as the weather begins to warm and the days grow longer, preparing your home for spring can be a difficult task.

Harmony blinds help you adapt to the changing weather with ease. Featuring two independent layers of fabric – one blackout and one voile – you can easily control how much natural light you allow into your home. In a range of colours, from the soft hues of cream and mocha, to vibrant shades of blues, you can dress your home with elegance and style. Bring colour into your home with a vibrant primrose fabric to make your home feel warm and bright or remain cool and collected with a modern, storm cloud grey.

 

Preventing the summer sun streaming in

 

 

Summertime is often filled with adventure. Longer days and warmer weather mean you can make the most of the great outdoors and that feeling of leisurely bliss. With blackout blinds, you can sit back and enjoy a cosy night in front of the telly or sleep easy knowing the rays of the morning sun won’t keep you up.

Our made-to-measure blinds come in a variety of styles, patterns and colours, so finding a design to fit your interior is a walk in the park. From modern tones of metallic greys and earthy browns, to traditional patterns of stripes and swirls, there’s a blackout blinds design suitable for every room in the house.

 

Adjust your home for autumn

 

 

As the leaves begin to fall and the morning frost makes its mark, the bright colours of the summer begin to fade into soft and homely hues. Dressing your windows with these natural colours can make your home feel warmer and cosier, helping prepare your home for the colder weather.

Venetian blinds are perfect for the autumn season as the adjustable slats allow you to control the amount light coming into your home. Available in a variety of deep wooden hues and bold autumnal shades, Venetian blinds can add texture to your windows and increase insulation ready for the winter period.

 

Keeping the heat in during winter

 

 

As the days grow shorter and the nights get colder, protecting your home from the cold draught is a must. By opting for solar protection blinds you can save on your energy bills and keep that cold outside air at bay. Our solar protection blinds are duel-purposed, using solar shades to reflect sunlight in summer and reduce heat loss during winter – making them a practical and stylish choice for all seasons.

 

Each season brings new challenges and weather conditions, and with a wide range of styles, colours and materials you can keep your window dressings stylish while you battle through the seasons. With easy to install, made-to-measure blinds, you can find the right window dressing to fit all windows and ensure your home is ready for anything.
