What they are

Soft fabric with a tailored fit

A roman shade is a flat panel of fabric that folds up in neat pleats as you raise it. Lowered, it covers the window like a smooth piece of fabric; raised, it gathers into soft folds at the top. Some styles fold flat and crisp, while others drape in relaxed, looping folds.

Because the fabric is the star, roman shades are the easiest way to bring color and pattern to a window, or to soften a room that has a lot of hard surfaces. Choose sheer and light filtering fabrics to let the daylight glow through, or add a privacy or blackout liner for bedrooms.

We bring fabric books and samples to your home so you can see how a pattern looks next to your upholstery, rugs and paint, and we’ll talk through which fold style suits the room.

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

Roman shade questions

Common questions from Metro Detroit homeowners about roman shades.

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.
Are roman shades available cordless?
Many styles are available with cordless lift, which is cleaner looking and safer for children and pets.
Can I use my own fabric?
We’ll bring our fabric books and samples to your home. Ask during your consultation about any special fabric requests.
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.
