Why November Is the Best Time to Upgrade Your Window Treatments
November brings a shift in more than just the weather, it also brings the start of cozy season, holiday hosting, and longer evenings spent at home. As we prepare for family gatherings, festive décor, and cooler temperatures, now is the perfect time to rethink how your window treatments play a role in home comfort.
At Anderson Blinds, Shades, & Shutters, we’re thankful for solutions that make homes warmer, more private, and more energy-efficient all season long. Here’s why November is the ideal time to upgrade:
1. Keep Heat Inside
As temperatures drop, old or poorly fitted blinds can let warm air escape, causing your furnace to work overtime.
Custom window treatments help:
Reduce drafts
Improve insulation
Keep heating costs down
Maintain a consistent temperature
A win for comfort and your wallet.
2. Holiday Hosting = Privacy Matters
With family and visitors gathering, you want a home that feels cozy, not exposed.
Custom shades and shutters offer:
Adjustable privacy
Glare control for TVs (hello, football!)
Soft, warm lighting
A more welcoming atmosphere
Your guests will feel right at home.
3. Shorter Days Mean More Glare
That low autumn sun finds new angles to sneak in, especially during dinnertime and early sunsets.
Upgraded treatments help:
Reduce eye strain
Minimize screen glare
Protect furniture from UV fading
Good lighting = good vibes.
4. Prepare for Holiday Décor
November is the time homeowners realize:
“Wow… these broken blinds look rough next to the decorations.”
Fresh blinds, shades, or shutters elevate:
Your entryway
Dining room ambiance
Holiday photos
Window lighting displays
The quickest home glow-up? Window treatments.
5. Create a Cozy, Comfortable Feel
Fabric shades and layered treatments can soften a room’s aesthetic and make it feel warmer, literally and emotionally.
Pair with candles, throws, and warm wood tones, and your living space transforms instantly.
6. Control Light Exactly How You Want It
November’s lighting = moody, early sunsets, bright afternoon beams.
Motorized and dual-roller shades help you:
Transition from daylight to movie night
Filter light, not block it
Adjust with a button or voice command
Smart home energy = unmatched convenience.
7. Add Value Before the Holidays
Window treatments are one of the most impactful home upgrades, with noticeable ROI.
You’ll enjoy benefits like:
✔ Better insulation
✔ Cleaner aesthetic
✔ More privacy
✔ Enhanced resale appeal
Something to be thankful for now and later.
