Window Treatments to Elevate Your Farmhouse Aesthetic
Ever since Chip and Johanna Gains came bursting onto the scene, and subsequently into our hearts, the “modern farmhouse” aesthetic has been the interior design trend to emulate. The combination of reclaimed wood, vintage and modern pieces, and all white everything makes for a charming and cozy home that you never want to leave—a great thing to have in these times!
A necessary part of any farmhouse style is chic and modern window treatments, but navigating all the options out there can be confusing. Don’t worry; we’re here to help! Here are some ideas for giving your windows a Magnolia makeover.

Woven Wood Shades
Farmhouse style is defined by bright white design elements, paired with hints of rustic wood. The combination of these light woven wood shades and long white drapes provides light and texture for a room that feels perfectly balanced. Keep the shades raised for an open and airy atmosphere, or lower them for ultimate privacy and light cancellation. Tip: hang your curtain rod higher to make the room feel more spacious!

Custom Roman Shades
Give your windows a clean, contemporary style with custom roman shades. These shades can be made in a variety of patterns so you can find a design perfectly suited to your style. We personally love a subtle plaid to add some rustic charm! Roman shades are a great choice because they provide insulation and a sense of privacy to your home when lowered but serve as a unique design accent when raised.

Plantation Shutters
Another great way to complete your minimal farmhouse aesthetic is adding plantation shutters! Installing custom shutters is a great way to add a touch of sophistication to your room while keeping it simple! Because of their functionality and elegance, plantation shutters have remained a popular choice over the years, making them a timeless addition to your home. Not to mention, shutters are a great investment since they reduce your heating and cooling costs and increase your home’s resale value.
