Mounting the Roman Shades

One of the big questions when specifying Roman Shades for a room is whether to mount them inside or outside the window frames. Sometimes there is not enough space within a window frame to hold a shade, which makes the decision easy. Otherwise, here are some tips to help to make the decision:

• Mount the shades outside If the frames are not attractive
• If you wish to add a sense of height to the space – you may put the roller of the shade higher than the window frame
• If the frames are beautiful and the architecture classic, with decorative moldings – inside-mount is the best choice
• Inside-mounted is a perfect choice when you have a deep window sill, giving a resting space for the plants, books or matching pillow shams
