Adding Shutters to Specialty Shaped Windows

Windows come in all shapes and sizes, not just rectangles and squares. Modern homes are complete with ornate specialty shaped windows in half-circle, angle top, and elliptical designs. While these windows add a touch of sophisticated interior design, they also present a unique challenge. How can you find blinds, curtains or shutters that fit an irregularly shaped window? In many cases, finding the right window treatment option can be difficult because whenever you find a covering style you like, you can’t find the shape you need. The solution is actually pretty simple when you purchase custom-fitted shutters. This is a long-term fix that complements the style of your home, while adding a high-end covering for the arch window. What are interior shutters and how can they be used in your home?
