If you're debating redecorating and have decided on new window treatments, you will need to choose whether you want to buy stock treatments, or custom window coverings. The first difference you'll notice between these two is the cost. Made to order window shades are considerably more expensive than stock ones. This is since stock ones are built in a factory to a standard size made from a stock fabric. This is a good choice if you are low on funds or don't care too much regarding the originality of the room to be redecorated.
However what if you do want made to order window treatments? Why should you bother? Isn't saving the money better? Not always. Many people and some spaces simply need a custom window treatment. This is most especially true if your windows are not of a standard dimension. If this is true, then you'll absolutely have to get made to order window treatments because otherwise nothing will fit!

With a custom window treatment, you can choose any fabric you choose. Do you really want your window to match your couch? While I do not recommend that, if you know the source of your couch's upholstery fabric than you can do that. You can get much richer fabrics this way.

One more nice thing is you are able to pick the style. For example, with Roman shades, there are two folding styles, teardrop and regular. These both give the room a different feel. You could combine your choice of folding type with fabric choice to get a made to order window covering that no one else has.

You could additionally pick how the shade is going to open. Generally your choices are manual or motorized. Most people are fine with manual, but if you are looking for that little something extra, you may want to go for the motorized.
As you can see, custom shades are the only way to go for many homeowners. Be sure to remember all of your options and talk to several experts. Almost every window treatments roman shades store has at least one expert working there who'll help you with no pressure to purchase- so what can it hurt! Locate pictures on the internet and research fabrics, make sure it all will match your current room or your planned design. Nothing's worse than buying made to order window treatments that you won't use! Just remember since they're made to order, if you do not like them you can't return them!
