Spring is officially here, which means many of us are starting that dreaded spring cleaning. However, spring cleaning isn’t just for your closet, it’s also the perfect time to start preparing your home for summer gatherings. Check out these quick, easy ideas for sprucing up your home for everything summer!

 Recipe for the Perfect Barbeque

Before you know it summer barbeques will be in full spring, so why not upgrade that backyard for summer get-togethers? Our recommendation: Pull out that summer furniture and dust off those cushions, clean up that grill and invest in some motorized solar shades. These shades are perfect for blocking out harmful sunrays, protecting yourself from the glare and allow you to take control with the touch of a button. 

Lighten Up 

With warmer days upon us it’s time to start thinking about switching out those heavy draperies with alighter, more airy option. One of our favorites? Sheers! This lightweight, airy option allows the soft beams of sun in while still providing privacy and a soft, elegant touch to your décor. 

 

 

The Decorative Solution

Speaking of privacy, do you want continued privacy without blocking out the gorgeous summer sunshine? Then you have got to check out decorative window film! This easy to install solution comes in a variety of options such as illuminating stained glass, chic rice paper and elegant etched lace among others. And not only is this a stylish solution, but it’s also a helpful one in that it will reduce 99% of the ultraviolet raysand up to 85% of the heat, which can protect your interior and help reduce your energy costs.

In addition to added convenience, motorized window treatments enhance safety and security because cords are eliminated. Window treatments on hard-to-reach windows are closed with the touch of a button and some motorization packages let you program your window treatments to open and close throughout the day. This makes your home appear occupied throughout the day and discourages would be thieves.  

 

Virtually all window treatments sold by Budget Blinds can be motorized for added convenience and security. We use only quality Somfy motors to power our window treatments and outdoor solar shades.
