Best Window Treatments for Picture Windows

As its name implies, a picture window provides a clear, unobstructed view to the mountains, ocean, lake—or whatever gorgeous setting lies beyond the glass. This single pane window, which literally frames the outdoors, is usually larger than a standard window and doesn’t open (which reduces the window frame size, enhancing the view).

For all the grandeur that a picture window provides, there may be times, of course, when you’d prefer privacy or when you’d like to block out mid-afternoon glare. And that’s where window treatments come into play.

Custom-made blinds, shades or drapes are all terrific choices for covering a picture window—which style you choose simply depends on your personal taste and the needs of your space.
