Cellular Shades Options for Large Windows

Wide or large windows are often difficult to decorate because homeowners want something that's both light and easy to hang while still meeting their needs for light control. Thankfully, cellular shades are not only visually appealing, but also very light weight and come in a variety of styles and light-controlling properties.

In order to cover a large window without the shade looking “busy”, individuals often choose cellular shades with a larger cell size. Since wide windows require longer cells and sometimes even taller shades, larger cells help balance out the size of the window. However, if the window is wide but relatively short, you can often choose smaller cell counts to emphasize the width of the shade rather than diminishing it.

If your window is especially wide or if you're looking for a shade for a patio or sliding glass door, you may want to consider vertical cellular shades. These unique vertical shades give you the same sliding function as traditional vertical blinds but with the sleek appeal as conventional cellular shades. The vertical cells also help emphasize the height of the window and can run across abnormally long windows without the worry of weight.
