Let’s unwrap the top window treatment trends we’re seeing this holiday season in Palm Harbor, Clearwater, Dunedin, Tarpon Springs, and beyond.
✨ Layered Looks Are In
This season, we’re seeing more clients layering soft treatments like natural woven shades or sheer shades with drapery panels for a cozy, upscale look.
Layering adds dimension, improves insulation, and softens light—perfect for those cozy winter mornings or hosting guests for holiday dinners.

🌟 Warm Tones and Natural Textures
The holidays are all about warmth—and that’s showing up in window fashion, too. Florida homeowners are leaning into natural materials like:
- Woven wood shades
- Bamboo blinds
- Textured fabrics in oatmeal, mocha, or terracotta tones
These materials pair beautifully with holiday greenery, gold accents, and even beach-inspired Christmas window décor ideas.
Try natural woven shades to bring in texture and soften your space while maintaining a relaxed, coastal vibe. They’re ideal for living rooms, dining rooms, or guest bedrooms.
🕯️ Energy-Efficient Shades for Cozy Comfort
Even in Florida, winter evenings can bring chilly drafts. If you want to boost comfort and energy savings, cellular shades are the MVP this season.
These honeycomb shades trap air and reduce heat transfer, making your home feel warmer without driving up your energy bill.
They’re sleek, modern, and come in a wide variety of colors to complement your holiday palette. Plus, they can be cordless or motorized—making them perfect for homes with children, pets, or large windows.
💡 Go High-Tech with Motorized Window Treatments
Smart homes are trending year-round, and holiday hosting is the perfect time to show off the convenience of motorized holiday window solutions.
Whether you’re entertaining or just want to set the mood for a quiet evening by the Christmas tree, you can open or close your shades with a tap on your phone or a simple voice command.
Combine motorization with roller shades or dual shades for effortless style and functionality. You can even program them to open automatically each morning—no cords, no hassle, just smart design.
