While most people are quick to consider furniture pieces, flooring, and upholstery when designing their home, details like window treatments have huge transformational potential, after all, as Charles Eames says “The details are not the details. They make the design.”
Budget Blinds is the #1 custom window covering provider in Canada and has been helping people create beautiful living spaces for over 30 years, offering a wide selection of window treatment services, they have something for every taste.
Whether you’re trying to choose a cohesive design for your space or you’re looking for window treatments to match your style, you'll want to take a gander at this list of popular interior styles and the types of window treatments that’ll bring them to life in your space.
Scandinavian
If you’re looking to give your space a light, airy, simplistic feel, the Scandinavian style may be for you. If there’s one thing a Scandinavian style tells you about a person it’s that they like to get hygge- a term that became popular in North America in the 2010's, but has always meant “cozy” to the Danish.
A big part of hygge is being able to easily cover up the windows for a movie night, or let the light into the house to enjoy a good book in a nook.
From affordable sheer shades that allow plenty of light in without damaging your floors and furnishing with harmful UV rays to simple linen or cotton drapes that can be customized to black out your space, Budget Blinds Vernon/Kamloops offers an in-depth style guide for this interior style and many customizable window treatment options for you to choose from!
Not to mention, Budget Blinds offers motorized options for many of their window treatments including motorized drapes, so you don’t have to leave a comfy spot on the couch to adjust the lighting in your house!
Japandi
Japandi style is a trend-worthy conglomeration of Scandinavian and Japanese design that exudes minimalism, utilitarianism, and skilled craftsmanship.
Japandi style involves the use of wood, rattan, bamboo, wicker, and linen materials, lending a chic aura to any space.
If you’re looking for beautiful window coverings to complement this unique style, Budget Blinds Vernon/Kamloops has you covered.
Go for a bamboo shade to create an earthy feel, or if you lean closer to classic minimalism, take a look at some affordable blinds instead to keep it simple. These options can even be paired with drapes for an added sense of luxury!
You can rest assured that you’ll receive five-star customer service from this locally-owned business no matter what window covering you choose!
Mediterranean
A Mediterranean interior is as versatile as it is beautiful. Whether you choose to go with Spanish, Greek, or Tuscan influences the outcome will be a home that emulates a life by the sea- or the lake in the case of the Okanagan.
If your home has big Mediterranean-style windows, then you know the value of insulating those windows, especially during the winter. For ease of use and to keep your house warm go for a nice set of drapes or shades!

Country/Modern Farmhouse
If you’re looking for something simple and homey, a country or modern farmhouse interior style exudes rustic charm!
To emulate the comforts of a country house, consider a gathered valance! Budget Blinds’ Valances are board-mounted for added durability and offer a wide assortment of fabrics so matching to your upholstery is made easy! You could even opt for a pelmet or a custom scallop if you really want to set the scene. Or, for a simpler alternative, try some drapes in an accent color to add a cohesive but simple look to the space.
More into the modern look? Then you should take a look at some traditional wood shutters or composite window shutters. A beautiful set of shutters will nod towards the farmhouse style without collecting dust and taking up space like a fabric solution. Plus they’ll look great beside your mason jars and house plants.
If you want to elevate your home to a farmhouse paradise level, bring the indoors out without sacrificing your privacy by installing exterior shutters for a partially covered back porch to lounge or have Al-fresco meals on!
Feeling inspired? Here’s Budget Blinds’ full-style guide on Farmhouse-style window treatments.
Mid-Century Modern

This vintage style has come and gone, but it’s back in 2023. Pops of color are what make Mid-Century Modern homes what they are, so to execute a good design you’re going to want to choose window treatment colours carefully.
