Drapery & Soft Treatments In Blue Springs
Drapery & Soft Treatments in Blue Springs, MO
Custom drapery, drapes and curtains are what make a Blue Springs room feel finished. A new great room at Chapman Farms has tall glass and hard floors, a Kingsridge living room has one wide window and not much else, and our Solar Shield Blinds Drapery & Soft Treatments bring the fabric, sewn to your window and hung by our own Install Techs.
Where It Fits In Blue Springs
Where drapes and curtains fit in Blue Springs
Tall new great rooms, raised ranch living rooms, dining rooms off the entry and bedrooms that need the sunrise blocked all call for fabric, and most of it goes up alongside a shade.
- Great rooms in new buildsFloor length panels beside the tall glass at Chapman Farms or Eagles Ridge bring a big room down to a comfortable scale and quiet the echo off hard floors.
- Raised ranch living roomsPanels on each side of the wide front window in a Kingsridge raised ranch frame it and add color to a room that's mostly wall and glass.
- Dining rooms off the entryA Roman shade or a cornice over the dining room window in a Plaza Estates two story finishes the room and hides the hardware of the shade underneath.
- Primary bedroomsLined or interlined drapery over the bedroom windows makes the room dark at sunrise with no hardware showing, and it adds a layer against the cold glass.
Worth Knowing
Fabric that finishes the room after the shade does its job
A new great room at Chapman Farms or Eagles Ridge can have every window shaded and still feel bare, with tall glass, painted walls and a hard floor. Drapery fixes that. Panels hung beside the glass draw the eye down, add color and softness, and take some of the echo out of the room. In the raised ranches of Kingsridge, panels on the wide front window turn a plain living room into a finished one, and a Roman shade suits a smaller kitchen or bath window.
The choices come down to fabric, lining and hardware. We have thousands of custom fabrics, and through our COM program we can sew with a fabric you found yourself. An unlined panel is decorative and fades in the sun, a lined panel hangs fuller and blocks more light, and an interlined panel is what darkens a primary bedroom. Every panel, Roman shade and cornice is cut and sewn in our own workroom, with two to two and a half times the width of the opening so the fabric has real fullness.
Drapery works best with a shade behind it, because panels only open or close, and a west family room still needs a screen fabric for the afternoon glare. We design the shade and the fabric together at your free consultation, measure every opening and write an exact quote on the spot that holds for 180 days. Soft treatments take 4 to 6 weeks, and our Install Techs hang, steam and dress every panel so it falls evenly and stacks neatly.

Straight Answers
Drapery & Soft Treatments questions from Blue Springs homeowners
Yes. On the tall glass in a new great room we mount the rod close to the ceiling and run the panels to the floor, which makes the wall look taller. Behind the fabric, a Roller Shade does the sun control, and your Design Specialist measures and quotes the two together.
For anything more than decoration, yes. Lined panels hang better and last longer, and interlined panels are what make a bedroom dark. Unlined panels let light through and will fade, so we keep them for sheers or side panels next to a window a shade already covers.
Yes. Our workroom sews six Roman shade styles, the Classic flat fold, the Hobbled and the Relaxed among them, along with cornices, valances and top treatments in any drapery fabric. A Roman shade suits a kitchen or bath window where floor length panels would be too much.
Yes. Motorized traverse rods make sense on very wide or very tall panels, like the ones in a two story great room. Roman shades can be motorized too, and they can run from the same remote or app as the rest of your shades.
No. Custom drapery runs on the same 4 to 6 week schedule as our interior shades. We sew every piece in our own workroom, and our Install Techs steam and hand dress each panel once it's hung.
Yes. Drapery and soft treatments carry a lifetime product warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, free service on defects for five years, and coverage that transfers to the next owner of your home.
