Homes We Work In
Window Treatments Suited to Belmont Houses
Belmont Hill colonials and Waverley Square Victorians tend to mix generous bay windows with small bathroom and stair openings. Plantation shutters handle the bays; cellular shades and Roman shades handle everything awkward.
Belmont clients often ask for quiet, child-safe lifts in bedrooms and playrooms — cordless and motorized options solve both at once.
Whatever the room calls for, we make it: custom drapery, blinds, shades and shutters, custom upholstery and motorization.

Designer Tips
Six Guidelines Our Designers Swear By
Start with how the room is used
A bedroom needs darkness and quiet, a home office needs glare control, a family room needs durability and easy operation. Function first, then style — the right fabric or shade follows naturally once we know what the room has to do every day.
Mount higher and wider than you think
Hanging drapery hardware close to the ceiling and extending it past the window casing makes windows look taller and lets panels stack off the glass. It is the single easiest way to make a room feel bigger and brighter.
Layer for flexibility
A functional shade underneath and decorative drapery on top gives you privacy by day, darkness at night and softness year-round. Layering also adds insulation that you will notice during a Greater Boston winter.
Mind the sun
South- and west-facing rooms fade floors, rugs and upholstery. Solar shades, lined drapery and UV-resistant fabrics protect what you have invested in without shutting out the view.
Keep kids and pets safe
Cordless lifts and motorized shades remove dangling cords entirely. We recommend them by default in nurseries, children's rooms and any home with curious pets.
Think about the whole house
Consistent shade colors and hardware finishes from the street give a home a tidy, cohesive look, even when every room inside uses a different style. We plan exterior appearance as carefully as interior design.

FAQ
Window Treatment Questions from Belmont
Still have a question? Call (781) 899-1811 or email info@designsinblinds.com.
Do you offer free in-home consultations in Belmont, MA?
Yes — in-home design consultations are free throughout Belmont and the rest of Greater Boston. A designer brings fabric books, slat samples and motorized demos, measures each window and leaves a written, itemized quote. Request a visit or call (781) 899-1811.
How long does a custom order take for a Belmont home?
Blinds and shades typically install two to four weeks after measuring; custom drapery and upholstery run four to eight weeks because the fabric is cut and sewn to order.
Can you motorize shades in older Belmont houses without rewiring?
Usually, yes. Rechargeable battery motors avoid opening walls, which matters in older Belmont homes and plaster ceilings. See motorized window treatments.
Do you install and service what you sell in Belmont?
We measure, fabricate and install with our own team out of the Waltham studio at 643 Moody St., and we come back to service anything we installed in Belmont.
How far is your showroom from Belmont?
Our Moody Street showroom in Waltham is about 10 minutes from most of Belmont. See hours and directions.
Do you work with Belmont interior designers and builders?
Yes. Our trade program supports designers, builders and remodelers with fabrication, measuring and installation.
