“As we brace ourselves for cold weather, keeping warm becomes big on our list of priorities,” says Sarah Quilliam, head of product design at Hillarys.
“While piling on leg warmers and layers is one way, there are some simple things you can do to turn your home from a draughty ice palace into a cosy hideaway.
“And according to research from Nottingham University on behalf of Hillarys, homeowners can make significant savings on fuel bills simply by selecting the right window dressing.”
The study compared and evaluated various blind and fabric types and Cascade Romans which fall in lovely soft waterfalls of fabric, topped the study as the most energy efficient blinds of all. They’re perfect for a cosy bedroom or living room, especially if the room is north facing or has several large windows.
Conservatories can almost become‘no go’ areas during the chillier winter months. Pleated blinds with an insulating backing can help to keep heat in so you stay snug and warm whilst saving on energy.
Radiators are often placed under windows and then covered up by heavy curtains that can stop the heat circulating properly. Roman blinds give the luxurious look of curtains but fit snugly into the window recess, keeping radiators free to do their job effectively.
With Winter just around the corner now is the perfect time to add warmth and style to your windows.

Summer has offically ended, but that doesn’t mean it has to start getting freezing in your home just yet! Why not brighten up your windows (and consequently the rooms they’re in) by installing some brighter, lighter coloured blinds?
Scientific studies have proved that people tend to be happier and cheerier when surrounded by “happy” colours that include:
These colours all have different influences on people, pink is a comforting colour, but not as aggressive as red. White is the purest colour available and gives the impression of clean, crisp and serenity. Violet is a tricky one, but the right shade can provide a very warm cosy, almost bohemian atmosphere in any home. Orange is another warm colour, not quite red and a little warmer than yellow, orange in the right dosage can warm up any home! Yellow creates a lovely warm summery feel, bright and cheery, but remember – in moderation! The right shades of green can be very peaceful and calming creating a very natural atmosphere and its soothing effects will amaze you.
Web-blinds also offer another great innovation that allows you to print your holiday (or any other photos) on your blinds so that you can hang on to your summer for a little while longer.
