Roman Shades bring style and elegance


A roman shade can come in several different types to include relaxed, London, flat, hobbled, pleated to name a few. The roman shade is outside or inside mounted depending on your preference for a window and the look you are going for. At A Creative Touch Draperies & Interiors, we can custom make a roman shade for your room and bring pattern, color and style to any room's look. Enhance your paint, furniture and decor with a custom made roman shade. Functionality and style will drive your decisions on what to select for a way to raise and lower your shade.

Child safety requirements are a main concern when installing a shade in any room. One must consider when there are children or the potential child visitor whether a cord will become a problem when a child has access to it. A Creative Touch Draperies & Interiors considers all child safety features when manufacturing a roman shade or any shade.
Cordless shades are ideal when they are in the right location and can be reached for optimum raising and lowering without a cord. Sometimes a cord is needed and the access to lift and lower a shade that is heavy or out of reach otherwise can assist with the functionality.

When considering fabric for the shade, it is fun to think about texture, color and pattern to enhance a room. Perhaps you want to repeat a color that you have in a vase, artwork or piece of furniture.
Pattern can play an important role in bringing the visitor's eye to the focal point with the laws of attraction.
