MOUNT VERNON – Trends come and go every year, but this year if you're looking for a new look for your windows, some window treatment trends seem to have stuck around.

One trend from 2019 that has stuck around is the use of natural colors, patterns and materials.

"We're seeing a shift back to light wood tones, browns, warm beiges and sunny whites for 2020. Grey and cool-toned neutrals have been dominating the décor landscape for years but are starting to fade," Blinds.com said in its blog post. 

Natural colors and materials are available is nearly every type of window treatment you want, including those that are trending: Roman and roller shades, shutters and blinds, and window hardware, the My Move website said.

While naturals are trending, so is maximalism. The key to this design movement is contrast. Mix patterns, colors and textures to create a colorful look for your window treatments. 

"Maximalism brings a new emphasis on self-expression with exciting and surprising colors," Blinds.com said. "Tropical colors like deep watery blues, hunter greens and jewel tones mixed with natural textures bring an organic touch to a space that leaves no accessory spared."

Another trend is high contrasting colors, with dark colors being very "in" this year.

"Black interior shutters or dark window trim is a huge trend right now and really makes windows pop," Blinds.com said. "Mixing dark trim with classic white blinds or beige shades will give your room a new and inspired feeling."

Budget Blinds of Knox County is a great local source for many types of window treatments.
