Arched Window Treatment

Though arched window treatment seems to be a challenging project, you still have plenty of options. What you will choose depends on your budget, your needs and, of course, of your home decor style. But, if you want to find a successful arched window treatment for your home, answer at first to these questions:

Where is your arched window located?


What is its size and shape?


Is it a single one, or a part of several windows?


Do you need to add window dressing for light and privacy control, or do you want just to beautify your arched window?

If you need to block light coming through your arched window, or to control your privacy – shop for window shades or blinds. There are many options for arched windows. Since there are so many types of arched windows, ordering custom made window blinds or shades is an easiest way to get a perfect covering for such windows. It’s quite costly, of course, but it pays to do it. With serious manufacturers, like Hunter Douglas, Graber, Kirsch, or Levolor, you will get a perfect arched window treatment.

Some arched window treatment ideas

You can treat arch separately from the entire window. For example, cover the arch with wooden shutters or honeycomb shades and put roman shades, bamboo shades, draperies, or other type of window treatment below. It works well when you need to match the arched window dressing with the rest of window treatments in the room.


Do you have a wide eyebrow window? Then install curtain track high above the window and hang draperies of your choice. If you wish, you can install double track for draperies and sheers. Such treatment will enhance the beauty of the eyebrow window.


For a narrow arched window hang a curtain on a wide curved curtain rod, for making it visibly larger. For a single and not very tall window you can put drapery that puddle on the floor, if you like such style. It will give an effect of a tall window and will add a unique decorative accent to the entire room.


If the privacy and light blockage is not your priority – put decorative curtain rod above the window and hang sheer valance or window scarf. Such dressing will not hide your beautiful arch and on the same time it will give an additional charm to the whole window.
