Why We’re Sew Into 'Oakmont': Its classical ticking stripes that lend a timeless elegance to the home The crisp contrast of fiery red against rich navy blue Its colorfastness that ensures you can savour its well brewed hues as fresh as new Like the look of clean stripes? This slate grey fabric with burgundy and cream ticking stripe brings warm hues in simplistic shapes. The masculine vibe sets off the curvy detailing of traditional decor and adds flavor to an outright minimalistic design. The dark coloring helps to combat light and offers a brilliant contrast to bright walls. Stylist Tip: For roman shades, choose the back-slatted style to avoid the slats’ hemlines interfering with the pattern on the frontage. HomeSewn Wisdom: Take advantage of vertical stripes: Since vertical stripes draw the eye upwards, roman shades in 'Oakmont' can optically elongate the room. Tap into the masculine connotation: Deep blues have for long been associated with masculine suaveness and moody decor. If you'd like to lean on this tried-and-tested way of dressing a boys' bedroom or a man cave, these dark blue roman blinds could be the perfect finishing touch. Opt for curtains: If you’re dressing windows wider than 96 inches, try Oakmont 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 Oakmont 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 Oakmont fabric by the yard to create any matching fabric accessory of your choice. The Nitty-Gritty (Made Pretty): Our roman shades arrive with all necessary hardware, so you can skip that last-minute store dash. We include cord lock anchors for child and pet safety, because style should never come at the cost of safety. Each roman shade at Sewn is handcrafted by skilled artisans from India who pour care, precision and decades of experience into every stitch.
