What they are

Roman shades for Howell homes

A roman shade is a flat panel of fabric that folds into pleats as it rises. Flat-fold styles give a tidy, tailored look, and relaxed styles drape in a soft curve. Either way, the fabric does the work, so roman shades are the easiest way to add color and pattern to a room.

In Howell we see roman shades over kitchen sinks and breakfast tables, in dining rooms, and in bedrooms and nurseries where a blackout liner helps little ones sleep while the sun is still up on a summer evening. They suit the farmhouse and traditional styles common in newer homes around town, and they look right at home in the older houses near downtown.

We bring fabric books and samples to your home so you can see a pattern next to your furniture, floors and paint, and we talk through fold style, liners and lift options for each window, including cordless lift for families with young children or pets.

  • Flat-fold and relaxed fold styles
  • Linens, textures, solids and patterns
  • Privacy and blackout liners

Operating options & care

Cordless lift and gentle care

Roman shades are often ordered with a cordless lift, so you raise and lower the shade by its bottom edge with no cords hanging down. Continuous loop and motorized options are available on many styles, which helps with wide or heavy shades. We’ll recommend the best control for each window.

To care for roman shades, dust or vacuum them gently on low with a brush attachment and spot clean according to the fabric’s care label. Most fabric shades should not be machine washed; when in doubt, call us before trying a cleaner.

  • Cordless, loop or motorized lift
  • Gentle vacuuming and spot cleaning
  • Inside or outside mount

Roman shade questions

Common questions from Howell homeowners about roman shades.

Can roman shades darken a nursery in my Howell home on summer evenings?
Yes, with a blackout liner behind the fabric. A small amount of light can slip in around the edges, and an outside mount that overlaps the frame reduces it. Cordless lift is also a good idea in a nursery.
Do roman shades suit a farmhouse-style kitchen in a newer Howell home?
Yes. Linen and textured fabrics in a flat or relaxed fold are a popular look over kitchen sinks and breakfast nooks. We bring fabric books so you can see them next to your cabinets.
Can roman shades block out light?
Yes. Adding a blackout liner makes roman shades a good choice for bedrooms. Some light may show at the edges depending on how the shade is mounted; we’ll go over mounting options.
What is the difference between flat and relaxed roman shades?
Flat roman shades fold into crisp, even pleats. Relaxed roman shades have a gentle curve at the bottom for a softer, more casual look.
How do I clean roman shades?
Dust or vacuum gently with a brush attachment and spot clean according to the fabric’s care label. Avoid machine washing.
