Why We’re Sew Into 'Gentle Belle': Its opulent Jacobean floral symphony, where stylized blossoms and vines unfurl heritage artistry in timeless elegance Pink and red tones pop on a quiet beige backdrop, their vibrance softened by the cozy touch of velvet naps Velvet's plush pile, where florals come alive with texture, depth and sheen HomeSewn Wisdom: Choose the European relaxed fold style: Dress up Molten Chilli roman shades in the stylish scallop of the European relaxed fold style. The indulgent swag of this style will magnify the aristocratic appeal of this patterned velvet by accentuating its color, texture, and sheen. Check compatibility of the pattern's scale: The grandiose florals of these roman shades are a fitting couture for a large window or wide doorway, but may not prove quite right for more modest ones. Avoid these shades for very short or narrow windows where the pattern may get cut abruptly and fall short of the span to feature enough repeats. While the motif is arresting in itself, it will fail to cast the desired visual effect if not given a proportionate canvas. Opt for curtains: If you’re dressing windows wider than 96 inches, try Gentle Belle curtains as a stylish alternative to roman shades. Drapery’s generous dimensions and flowy trails are particularly well suited to wider spans, creating a balanced and refined look. Start with a sample: Screens may lie; swatches don’t. Since colors in images can vary on different screens, ordering a sample of Gentle Belle is highly advisable. This will allow you to see the colors upclose, and check how the fabric feels to the touch. Complement with matching accessories: For a custom designer look, coordinate your roman shades with other textile accessories in the room. Order matching runners, table covers or cushion covers from us, or buy Gentle Belle fabric by the yard to create any matching fabric accessory of your choice.
