Rhode's headquarters in Beverly Hills embodies a unique vision: to create a space that blends chic sophistication with a nurturing environment for creativity and tranquility among the team. This vision is not just a space, but a physical manifestation of the Rhode brand: intentional, minimalistic, and monochromatic.
Before Rhode took over the location, it was characterized by concrete, dark woods, and black metal accents. With the expertise of Erik Garcia of Maison Trouvaille, the office underwent a complete overhaul, incorporating androgynous features, repurposed furniture, and warm aesthetics.
Erick Garcia of Maison Trouvaille recognized the importance of incorporating high-quality drapery to achieve the desired ambiance and successfully curated a space that not only reflects Rhode's brand identity but also encourages creativity and tranquility among its team members.
Furniture: A significant portion of the furniture was upcycled, including desks, tables, and kitchen cabinets, giving new life to existing pieces. Desks and cabinetry were meticulously finished with high-gloss and matte paints, along with opaque acrylic materials.
Walls: Lime-washed walls were introduced to create textural contrast and enhance the monochromatic aesthetic, inspired by Rhode's own packaging finish.
Smoked Bronze Mirror: The mirror's color palette draws inspiration from Rhode's Peptide Lip Tint in Espresso, adding a touch of continuity and branding to the office design.
Rhode Products: Rhode's products were intentionally showcased throughout the office, with a particular emphasis on new releases to keep the display dynamic and ever-evolving.
Drapery: Sheer drapery adds texture and softness providing more control over the amount of light and privacy desired.

Nestled within the pages of Rue Magazine lies a captivating feature showcasing the exquisite home of designer Molly Torres Portnof, the creative force behind Date Interiors. But this isn't just any home; it's a narrative woven with familial ties and personal evolution. After being the beloved home of Molly's parents, this residence evolved into her personal sanctuary, profoundly shaping her design sensibilities. You can read the full Rue Magazine article here: LINK TO SITE
In the lively world of interior design, there are those whose work stands out as a vibrant tapestry of color, personality, and warmth - signaling that creativity knows no bounds. Molly Torres, the creative force behind Date Interiors, is one such designer. Based in the picturesque Long Island community of Lido Beach, New York, Molly's design ethos is defined by her one-of-a-kind, eclectic-yet-curated aesthetic.
When asked about her design style, Molly's answer is as lively as her creations, “One-of-a-kind, eclectic-yet-curated.” It's a style that's uniquely hers – a delightful fusion of unexpected elements and carefully selected pieces that come together to form spaces that are as vibrant as they are inviting.
For Molly, inspiration springs from the boundless world of color. "The biggest inspiration was color!" she says. "I wanted to create a creative, energized space that felt unique to me and my husband – cool, beautiful, welcoming, and warm." It's a testament to Molly's fearless approach to design, where color isn't just a decorative element but a vibrant expression of personality and joy.
What makes a space truly special to Molly? It's all about infusing it with personality and warmth. "The biggest compliment I can receive is when someone enters a space and says, 'it feels like you,'" she shares. It's this sense of authenticity and individuality that sets Molly's designs apart, creating spaces that are as welcoming as they are beautiful.
Molly draws inspiration from a variety of sources – from her travels to nature and everything in between. "I've been drawn to the Australian design scene for a while," she reveals. "The Design Files and all of the incredible designers featured in it will forever be a source of inspiration for me." It's this eclectic mix of influences that infuses Molly's designs with a sense of energy and vitality.
Molly's journey with Everhem began like many modern-day connections – through Instagram. "And then I met Haley in person," Molly recalls, "and she was incredibly lovely and brought a whole pretty swatch set to our coffee date." Thus began a collaboration that would transform Molly's home into a showcase of timeless elegance and sophistication.
Working with Everhem was a seamless experience for Molly, a rarity in the world of interior design and, especially, window treatments. "It was seamless, which as an interior designer dealing with many different trades, contractors, clients, and personalities, is extremely rare," she reflects. Special praise goes to Nina, whose meticulous attention to detail made the process a breeze. For Molly, the choice of window treatments was essential to achieving the desired ambiance in her home. "I wanted window treatments that felt soft, airy, and light," she explains. Everhem's Roman shades and drapery provided the perfect solution, allowing natural light to shine through while adding a touch of elegance to each room.
While Molly is known for her love of color, she admits to having a soft spot for Everhem's Ivory color. "It's the perfect warm white that's surprisingly hard to find," she reveals. She also praises the Woven Wood collection for its texture and warmth, particularly the Khaki color used in her dining room.
As Molly looks to the future, she's excited to find a sense of balance between creativity and relaxation. "Personally, I'm looking forward to feeling a bit more settled and enjoying our home," she shares. "Professionally, we'll be finishing up a few projects that have been in the works for years, so I'm excited to see them fully realized."
Molly Torres's collaboration with Everhem is a testament to the power of creativity, collaboration, and craftsmanship. Together, they have transformed her home into a vibrant sanctuary filled with color, personality, and warmth.

Hearth Home Interiors believes that every home has a unique story to tell, and their mission is to help their clients discover and express their own personal narratives through thoughtful and balanced design. We sat down with Olivia and Katie, the creative mind behind Hearth Home Interiors, to learn more about their design philosophy, sources of inspiration, and their experience working with Everhem for their custom window treatment needs.
Seen here: Unlined Pinch Pleat Drapery in Bone Essentials and Bronze Curved Return Hardware.
Our design firm, Hearth Homes Interiors, is located in sunny Santa Barbara, CA, nestled between the mountains and the sea.
Where Olivia tends to lean a little neutral, Katie tends to lean a little colorful. We love the juxtaposition of modern meeting traditional, old meeting new, and earthy meets geometric. Everyday life is about finding a balance and we love to help our client’s find the perfect design balance within theirs. And, all of this tends to be wrapped up in a slightly casual bow with inspiration pulled from our home on the West coast.
Seen here: Blackout Lined Pinch Pleat Drapery in Bone Essentials and Bronze Curved Return Hardware.
We love to pull inspiration from the architecture of the homes we renovate and style. Each house has a history and we love to pull those elements as a foundation of a project’s aesthetic. When a space is lacking a little history, we like to pull from our client’s family history and meld together different design elements to create a unique story.
I believe we found you on social media! We sourced our samples for another project back in 2022-2023 and when it came time to source window coverings for this project, we knew this would be the perfect collaboration - we headed straight down the yellow brick road to you all!
Seen here: Outside Mount, Privacy Lined Woven Wood Shade in Khaki — featuring Chain Loop Custom Control and Shade Operation Front.
We love the material and color options as well as the hand feel of the fabrics. Each window covering and drape adds the perfect finishing touch to the spaces, elevating each room and complimenting the design

French doors are not only a stunning architectural feature that can enhance the elegance and charm of any home, but also a versatile design element that can transform your space. To truly make the most of these beautiful doors, consider incorporating outside mount window treatments.
Outside mount shades are installed on the exterior of the window frame, above the glass or on the wall surrounding the window. This mounting style is ideal for French doors, providing enhanced light control, privacy, and aesthetic appeal.
When installing outside mount shades on French doors, it's crucial to measure accurately to ensure a perfect fit. Here are some dos and don'ts for measuring and installation:

At Everhem, we've had the privilege of being part of countless home transformations, each with its unique charm and character. Our most recent project took us to the beautiful neighborhood of Cheviot Hills in Los Angeles, where we had the pleasure of helping style a remarkable Spanish Revival home with our exquisite Everhem Drapery and Woven Woods.
Nestled in the heart of Cheviot Hills, this home is a true gem, showcasing a seamless fusion of classic and eclectic design elements. From the moment we stepped inside, we were captivated by the balance of timeless elegance and modern flair that permeated every room. It was clear that this home deserved window treatments that would complement its unique character, and Everhem's neutral options were the perfect choice.
One of the standout features of this project was our collaboration with the homeowners to select the ideal window treatments for each room. Everhem's Drapery and Woven Woods offered the versatility and sophistication needed to enhance the ambiance and functionality of every space.
In the living areas, our Everhem Drapery in neutral tones played a pivotal role in creating an inviting and cozy atmosphere. The soft, muted colors of our drapery perfectly complemented the classic architecture of the Spanish Revival home, while also allowing the homeowners to experiment with various decor styles.
For instance, in the living room, our Birch Drapery provided a clean and timeless backdrop, allowing the homeowners to incorporate pops of color through decorative pillows and the gorgeously renovated fireplace. The result was a space that felt both classic and vibrant, ideal for entertaining guests or simply unwinding with family.
In areas where a more rustic and earthy ambiance was desired, our Everhem Woven Woods stole the show. These natural window treatments added a touch of warmth and authenticity to the home, enhancing the Spanish Revival aesthetic.
In the dining room, our Woven Woods in Chestnut layered with Everhem Sheers beautifully complemented the rich wood tones of the furniture and colorful kitchen cabinets. The interplay between the woven texture of the window treatments and the room's earthy elements created a captivating dining experience that felt both cozy and sophisticated.
The beauty of Everhem window treatments lies not only in aesthetics but also in functionality. We worked closely with the homeowners to ensure that each space had the ideal balance of light control and privacy.
In the bedrooms, our Roman Shades provided a peaceful retreat, allowing for restful nights of sleep. We also offer lining customization to accommodate blackout shades, ensuring you can enjoy uninterrupted slumber.
This Cheviot Hills Spanish Revival home is a testament to the power of thoughtful design and the impact of well-chosen window treatments. With Everhem's help, the homeowners were able to transform their already beautiful space into a cozy and inviting retreat that celebrated the best of classic and eclectic design.
As we reflect on this project, we are reminded of the unique beauty that each home possesses and how Everhem window treatments have the ability to enhance and elevate that beauty. We are grateful to have played a part in bringing the vision for this stunning Cheviot Hills home to life, and we look forward to continuing our journey of transforming spaces, one window at a time.

If you're ready to embark on your own home transformation, we invite you to explore our versatile range of customizable window treatments and discover how Everhem can help you achieve the perfect blend of style and functionality in your space.
Everhem was born and raised in Los Angeles by Adam and Haley Weidenbaum! Together the couple created Everhem, an online custom window covering product building experience guided by the design principles of one of LA’s top interior designers.
All of Haley's life she's been naturally drawn to making a space feel like a home. She started with her childhood bedroom, then her dorm room and eventually her first home when she realized her passion for interior design. That passion turned into her career as an interior designer and she fell in love with helping her clients transform their spaces and achieve their design goals.
Did you know? Before Haley started on her interior design path, she was in hospitality. She worked in hotel sales and believes her experiences with different types of hotel guests shaped Everhem's customer experience that you see today!
Adam started out as a graphic designer who specialized in branding and marketing. He used his branding background to help conceptualize Haley's idea and the Everhem website.
After a decade of being in the interior design industry, Haley had an 'aha' moment! She realized just about every client needed custom window treatments but was no stranger to just how difficult that task was. Haley quickly developed a playbook for designing beautiful, custom Drapery, Roman Shades, Woven Woods and Cafe Curtains. She understood many other interior designers were in the same position and wanted to offer the industry a simpler way to design custom window treatments with easier access to window treatment experts.
Window treatments can often be overlooked or forgotten about. At Everhem, we see them as incredibly useful and impactful. Not only are they the perfect finishing touch to your space, but everyone has a need for them. Whether you desire privacy from neighbors, darker rooms for better rest, or even to help stay energy efficient by keeping the cold or heat out, window treatments are a simple answer.
With the mission of positively changing the perception of window treatments, we value our seamless web experience that's both simple and personal!
Did you know? The Everhem name was conceived by Adam and Haley while they were on vacation in Stockholm, Sweden. "Hem" is the Swedish word for "home", so the double meaning of the Swedish and English “hem” played nicely for a hand sewn product array and the inclusion of the word “ever” speaks to the idea that the products are of lasting quality and for your “forever home.”
Everhem is here to redesign the world of window treatments by threading together curated offerings, a simplified process and an experience to remember!

You’ve seen the movie scenes: sunshine is beaming down, birds are chirping and then a woman gleefully thrusts open a set of French doors to shout her excitement: “I’m getting married today!”
There’s something innately romantic about grabbing two handles and crossing a wide threshold, gauzy sheers swaying behind you like bridal veils. Indeed, French doors are commanding, dignified and certainly a designer’s dream.
In fact, the right window treatments for French doors can be just as dramatic as the doors themselves. It’s true, and I’ll prove it to you, as we explore the why, where, what and how of French door window coverings.
It’s a fair question. After all, you want that extra rush of natural light to flood your home and the custom wood molding to accent your décor. But adding window treatments won’t prevent any of that. If done well, window coverings on a set of French doors can actually amplify the size of your doors. They will draw your eye out and up, thereby expanding their visual impact. Window treatments are also an easy way to impart color or pattern into a room, which is another way to grab attention and turn your French doors into the focal point.
Of course, there’s also the practicality of window treatments. Covering your French doors helps shade your house during the heat of the day, so it stays cool and your electric bill stays low. Secondly, window treatments on a pair of French doors create much-needed privacy whenever you need it.
You’ll find two main types of French doors in a home: interior and exterior. And, truthfully, each serves a different function in your home’s design.
These are the doors that divide one room from another room within your house. When closed, they create clear borders and help define certain areas of the home. You might have a set between your dining room and kitchen, for example. This can give you the privacy you need while prepping for a dinner party. Or, maybe you have a home office that’s dressed in French doors, so you can (somewhat) separate work from your personal life.
As the name implies, exterior French doors open to the exterior of your home. Their main function is to provide an entry point to the outside world. Exterior French doors are most common toward the back of a house, where the main living space transitions to an inviting porch or patio. Another fantastical place for exterior French doors is on a balcony. I would argue that any master suite with a Juliet balcony should have a set of double doors leading out to it.
While you could get wildly creative with the window panes on your French doors, you’ll get a much more elegant aesthetic by keeping it simple. Here are four of your best window treatments for French doors:
Remember when we said window treatments can make your French doors appear larger? Drapery is the best way to achieve that look. When hung correctly, drapery beautifully frames a pair of French doors and adds height to the room.
Take note that the length of the drapery and mounting height of the hardware is key. To add height, you want to mount the rod at least seven inches above the top of the door frame. And the drapes should be long enough that they just kiss the floor.
Roman shades for French doors are typically outside mounted, meaning they attach to the wood door framing. The shades are constructed to be wide enough and long enough to cover the entire glass panes when the shades are fully closed. Because of their delicate fold, Roman shades instantly add a touch of romance and intrigue. Depending on the style, fabric and color of fabric you choose, you can elicit any number of moods with a Roman shade. A flat Roman shade, for instance, is a bit more streamlined – perfect for a modern scene or formal dining room. Whereas, a relaxed linen has more folds and feels casual enough for the bedroom or kid’s playroom.
Regardless of the fabric, you want to be sure to custom-cut a Roman shade for each door. If there are windows flanking the French doors, you’ll want separate shades for them, as well.
Layering texture is a time-tested design trick. If you’re looking to jazz up a room, woven woods on your French doors is an easy way to do it. The natural grain of the wood lends charm and flavor to an otherwise monotone space. They’re also a great complement to wood floors in the office or wicker furniture on the back patio.
The same basic rules apply to woven woods as with Roman shades. These coverings should completely cover the window panes on your French doors. With your woven shades properly fitted and outside mounted, they will. From there, you can quickly adjust the shades open or closed by pulling down on the cord.
Sometimes, two is better than one – and that might be the case with your French door window treatments. A combination of drapery and shades will do wonders at blocking out natural light, because they effectively cover all corners and crevices of the door. More than that, layering is a great way to add drama to a room. With two shields in front of your French doors, they become even more mysterious.
There is one major exception to this technique: Avoid using the same type of fabric for both the drapes and shades. Contrast is key. The treatments need to be different enough to stand on their own. Otherwise, it’s not an effective form of layering.

Now that you’re an expert in window treatments for French doors, it’s time to put all that knowledge to good use. Simply follow these dos and don’ts, and you’ll be well on your way to a professional-level design.
From the calming allure of cool "Moon" to the rich tone of "Fawn", Everhem has a wide selection of fabric options and colors. You’ll have no problem finding the right hue and fabric for your French door drapery or Roman shades. Plus, we offer woven woods in several neutral tones.
The best part is everything is custom-made to suit your home to a tee. We’ll work with you one-on-one to make sure your French doors are exactly as you dreamed them to be!

In the ever-evolving world of interior design, there are a select few whose work transcends trends and captures the essence of timeless elegance. Amber Lestrange stands out among them, renowned for her remarkable talent in crafting narratives through color, material, and space. Let’s dive into Amber Lestrange's journey in the design world and her partnership with Everhem aimed to create stunning transformations and breathtaking interiors.
Amber Lestrange's journey into the world of design was not a conventional one. It began with a series of personal projects involving the transformation of homes, where she discovered her innate passion for creating beautiful and meaningful spaces. "I fell in love with the process of weaving a story through color, material, and objects," she reflects. "Before I knew it, Lestrange Living was born."
Amber's design philosophy is rooted in authenticity and emotion, with a focus on creating spaces that evoke a sense of connection and belonging. "I learned to let the feeling I wanted to create in the space guide me," she explains. This intuitive approach to design has earned her acclaim in the industry and a dedicated following of design enthusiasts.
Amber Lestrange's collaboration with Everhem was born out of a desire to breathe new life into a run-down mid-century home. The project presented Amber with an opportunity to blend elements of sexy 70s interior design with the clean lines and minimalist aesthetic of Japandi style.
"The goal was to create a space that felt both nostalgic and contemporary," says Amber. "I wanted to honor the home's mid-century roots while infusing it with a sense of modern sophistication."
When it came to selecting window treatments for the project, Amber turned to Everhem for their expertise and impeccable craftsmanship. "I was drawn to Everhem's versatile range of products, which offered tailored solutions for every space," she explains.
For the living and dining areas, Amber opted for sheer drapes that added a sense of lightness and airiness to the space. "I love how the sheer drapes blend seamlessly with the walls, creating a monochromatic backdrop that allows other design elements to shine," she says.
In the bedrooms, Amber chose blackout blinds to add weight and fullness to the space, creating a cozy and intimate atmosphere. "The blackout blinds not only provide privacy and light control but also enhance the overall aesthetic of the room," she notes.
For the guest room, Amber selected sheer shades that brought in a softness and warmth, creating a welcoming retreat for visitors. "The sheer shades add a touch of elegance to the space while diffusing natural light in a gentle and inviting way," she adds.
Amber Lestrange's partnership with Everhem is a testament to the power of partnership and creativity. Together, they have transformed a run-down mid-century home into a stunning showcase of design innovation and craftsmanship. With their tailored solutions and attention to detail, Everhem has helped bring Amber's vision to life, creating spaces that are as beautiful as they are functional.

Designing spaces for children is a special art, and few understand this better than Hannah from Eema Studio. As the founder and designer behind EEMA, an interior design and nesting studio specializing in children's spaces, Hannah brings a unique blend of creativity and practicality to her work. As a mom to three young boys, she understands the importance of creating simplified spaces that are not just beautiful but also functional, peaceful, and playful.
Hannah provided Everhem with invaluable tips for designing nurseries and kids' rooms that stand the test of time. With her experience and expertise, she reveals the secrets to crafting spaces that are both visually appealing and highly functional.
“Repurpose a vintage chest of drawers as your baby's changing table by pairing it with a changing pad, small baskets and a little table lamp. Paint a vintage bookshelf, or anything really, to give it new life. Incorporate vintage lighting for added charm in the space -- a rattan ceiling pendant, a scalloped table lamp, or a unique wall sconce. “
Hannah's first tip is all about infusing character and charm into your child's space by incorporating vintage elements. There's something timeless and special about vintage pieces that can instantly elevate a room's aesthetics.
In Hannah’s example on repurposing a vintage chest of drawers, you can create a functional and stylish changing station that tells a story.
But the vintage love doesn't stop there. Get creative and breathe new life into vintage bookshelves or any other piece you adore. By doing so, you add a unique touch to the room, and your child's space becomes a canvas for both the old and the new. Vintage lighting can be a game-changer too. Think about adding a rattan ceiling pendant, a scalloped table lamp, or a one-of-a-kind wall sconce for that extra dash of charm. Vintage elements can bring warmth and character to a child's room that's simply unmatched.
“You'll most likely have a tired baby in your arms when you're getting the nursery ready for nap/bedtime, so opt for safe window treatments that are easy to operate. Everhem's motorized, cordless and chain loop are not only one-hand-friendly, but also child-safe, as these options don't have any long hanging cords that can be hazardous in a child's room.”
Safety is a paramount concern when it comes to children's rooms. The design should not only be visually appealing but also child-safe and practical.
Everhem offers motorized, cordless, and chain loop options that are not only easy to operate with one hand but also designed with child safety in mind. These options eliminate the risk associated with long hanging cords, ensuring your child's safety in their room. They're the perfect choice for busy parents who need simplicity and peace of mind when it comes to window treatments.
“Kids grow quickly, and their rooms will need to support all their transitions. Investing in well-made items that will grow with your family will make things easier when it's time for a room update. For example: choose a crib that converts to a toddler bed, use a nursing chair that can later be used as an accent chair, and/or pick a changing table with a removable topper, so once baby outgrows diapers - the topper can be removed, and you're left with a standard dresser.”
Kids grow up quickly, and their needs change just as fast. When designing your child's room, it's essential to consider the longevity of the big-ticket items. Investing in well-made, versatile pieces that can grow with your family will save you both time and money in the long run.
Hannah’s suggestion: consider a crib that converts into a toddler bed. This clever design ensures that your investment serves your child through multiple stages of their early years. Similarly, choose a nursing chair that can later find a new home as an accent chair in a different part of the house once your child outgrows it. And when it comes to changing tables, select one with a removable topper. When your baby no longer needs diaper changes, simply remove the topper, and you're left with a dresser that can serve your child for years to come. These choices contribute to a more sustainable and eco-friendly approach to designing children's spaces.
“I’m a big big fan of the Dune Woven Woods! The color is sun-kissed and warm, and the woven texture is elevated, but still relaxed. so versatile and timeless!”
When it comes to choosing window treatments, Hannah has a soft spot for Everhem's Dune Woven Woods. She admires the sun-kissed and warm color that adds a welcoming vibe to any space. The woven texture of the Dune woven woods strikes a perfect balance between elegance and relaxation, making it an incredibly versatile and timeless choice for window treatments.

Your journey to creating the perfect home begins as soon as the ink dries on your new property papers. The excitement of homeownership sparks the imagination, and the prospect of turning your house into a dream. Amid all the design decisions you'll make, none are as pivotal as choosing the right window treatments.Our Founder and Interior Designer, Haley Weidenbaum shared her invaluable interior design insights with us, to help you navigate the world of window coverings.
Before diving into window treatment choices, it's crucial to align them with your home's design style. Window treatments, like flooring and color palettes, play a pivotal role in setting the tone of a room. Whether you're envisioning a coastal Cape Cod escape or a traditionally timeless space, your selections should exude timelessness. Opt for quality fabric and custom sizing to ensure longevity and adaptability to evolving design preferences.
The size and shape of your windows significantly influence the type of window treatment that works best. Shades excel when they're custom-fit for small, elevated, or multi-sectional windows. Conversely, drapes shine when cascading over expansive, tall, or multi-sectional windows. Embrace creativity by combining shades and drapes, employing the layered approach to add depth, privacy, and sophistication to your design.
The decision between inside-mount and outside-mount shades hinges on your window's trim. Wide, decorative trim is a canvas worth showcasing with an inside mount. Conversely, outside mounting exposes the window pane fully, a suitable choice for windows with plain or narrow molding. Remember, at least one inch of depth is needed for inside-mounted shades.
Privacy needs vary throughout your home. Bedrooms and bathrooms demand maximum privacy, achieved with blackout window treatments. Meanwhile, communal spaces like the kitchen thrive with ample natural light. Customize your privacy by adding linings, offering versatility from light-filtering to blackout.
While decorating room by room, keep the grand vision of your entire home in mind. Window treatments should complement and contribute to your home's overarching design style. Subtle touches can accumulate to create a cohesive, impactful design. Avoid overpowering a room with bold patterns, heavy fabrics, or diverse hardware. Instead, let small, subtle details coalesce into a harmonious whole.
Consistency is key to achieving a unified design style. While fabric choices may vary, maintain coherence by selecting harmonious color palettes. Everhem offers a spectrum of neutral tones that effortlessly blend. Consistency extends to pleat styles, ensuring a uniform appearance throughout your home. Likewise, matching hardware styles and finishes fosters design harmony.
Window treatments can influence your home's exterior aesthetics. Front-facing rooms benefit from uniform window treatments, enhancing curb appeal. Consistency in front-facing windows, such as drapery on all, provides visual symmetry. Yet, with Everhem's versatile products, there are no wrong choices, as all seamlessly integrate with one another.
Your quest for the perfect home has culminated in your new abode. Now, with Everhem, we aim to simplify decorating decisions, like selecting window treatments, making them as effortless as possible.

Plaid Perfection: Adding Rich Holiday Hues
One of the quintessential patterns of the Christmas season is plaid. It's a design choice that immediately evokes feelings of warmth and nostalgia. To elevate your Everhem Roman Shades for the holidays, consider crafting a fabric plaid garland.
Choose fabrics that bring in rich holiday colors like deep reds, forest greens, and classic whites. These hues not only capture the spirit of Christmas but also harmonize beautifully with Everhem's Essentials Collection. Hang your plaid garland atop your Roman Shades, allowing the colors to pop against the backdrop of your window treatments. The result? A festive and inviting space that's perfect for holiday gatherings and creating lasting memories.
Hanukkah Heritage: Glistening Elegance
For those celebrating Hanukkah, the holiday is a time to embrace the rich traditions and heritage of the Jewish faith. A silver or gold menorah is a stunning addition to decor. These timeless symbols of Hanukkah not only honor the Festival of Lights but also add a touch of elegance to your space. Place your menorah on a prominent surface, allowing it to catch the light and glisten beautifully against the backdrop of your Everhem window coverings. It's a meaningful and visually captivating way to celebrate Hanukkah while maintaining the sophistication of your interior design.

Windows are more than just openings to the outside world; they are opportunities for interior design excellence. One way to elevate your windows and add depth, style, and functionality to your space is through the art of layering window treatments. In this blog post, we'll explore the magic of layering Roman Shades and Woven Woods with drapery, and how the interplay of colors and textiles can transform your home with Everhem.
Roman Shades: Roman Shades are a versatile and elegant choice for window treatments. Their clean lines and smooth operation make them a favorite for many homeowners. When layering Roman Shades with drapery, you create a sophisticated look that marries form and function.
Color Coordination: Begin by selecting Roman Shades or Woven Shades and drapery in complementary colors. For a harmonious and balanced aesthetic, consider choosing shades that are a shade or two lighter or darker than your drapery. This subtle contrast adds depth and dimension to your windows.
Textile Pairing: Think about texture. If your drapery features a smooth, solid fabric, opt for materials with a bit of texture, like our Woven Woods. Conversely, if your drapery has a subtle texture, smooth Roman Shades can create a pleasing contrast.
Layering Styles: Depending on your style and preferences, you can choose from various Roman Shade or Woven Shade styles, from flat to relaxed, and pair them with drapery that complements the look. For instance, flat Roman Shades exude a clean and modern vibe, while relaxed Roman Shades bring a touch of casual elegance to your windows.
Subtle Neutrals: If your design aesthetic leans towards the minimalist or Scandinavian style, consider layering neutral-colored Roman Shades with light, sheer drapery. This combination brightens your space and allows for soft, diffused natural light.
Bold Contrasts: For a dramatic effect, go for contrasting colors and textiles. Deep, rich Roman Shades paired with striking drapery can create a captivating focal point in any room.
Textile Variety: Experiment with different textiles. Combine Roman Shades made from natural materials like bamboo or rattan with drapery featuring soft, luxurious fabrics. The mix of textures adds tactile interest to your space.
Monochromatic Magic: Monochromatic layering can be incredibly chic. Select Roman Shades and drapery in the same color family but with varying shades. This creates a seamless, monochromatic look with subtle variations that add depth and dimension.
The layering of Roman Shades and drapery isn't just about aesthetics; it's about functionality too. Roman Shades offer precise light control, and when paired with drapery, you have the flexibility to fine-tune your desired ambiance. Pull the shades up for abundant natural light during the day, and draw the drapery at night for privacy.
Layering window treatments with Everhem allows you to achieve a dynamic, personalized, and visually captivating space. The interplay of colors, textures, and textiles adds depth and character to your home while giving you unparalleled control over light and privacy.
Whether you prefer a sleek, modern look or a cozy, traditional ambiance, Everhem's versatile collection of Roman Shades, Woven Woods, and drapery allows you to customize your windows to perfection. So, don't be afraid to experiment with layers, colors, and textures, and let your windows become a canvas for your unique style. With Everhem, your windows will be the envy of every room.
