Tall windows can become the most stunning design element in your home. But they can pose some challenges. Luckily, the opportunities tall windows provide for home decorating are enormous—and the challenges are rather minor, thanks to modern technology.

Here are three window treatments to get the most out of your home’s tall windows.

Roller shades on tall windows in a bedroom.

Roller Shades

Using a roller-style shade, such as a Bali Solar Shades or Bali Roller Shades, might just be the solution for your tall windows. These simple shades provide a huge range of colors, textures, and patterns, and their simple design gives them a clean, uncluttered look that works in a minimalist or modern design scheme.

Because it’s hard to reach the top of a tall window, motorizing your shades are a great option. At the touch of a button, you can lift and lower your shades. That means no more reaching and no visible cords.

Solar shades are great for windows where you want to control the sunlight but still want to maintain some view to the outdoors. Roller shades come in dozens of beautiful fabrics and are ideal when trying to match décor.

It also lets you adjust the shade to exactly the length and position that looks best on your window. The appearance is glamourous, the operation is seamless, and the versatility is unmatched. If you’re looking for the ultimate window treatment for your tall windows, choose a top-down/bottom-up cellular shade.

Curtains and Drapery
