The current trends in home d\u00e9cor tend to be very muted, neutral, and monochromatic. Of course, without adding in some texture, this can get dull \u2013 fast!<\/p>\n<p>Some of our favorite interior designers have shown us that texture is the best way to add depth and character to any room while maintaining the same understated style you set out to achieve.<\/p>\n<p>What we really love about velvet is that it\u2019s so elegant and sophisticated. You\u2019d be surprised how this soft, plush material can completely transform a room. We\u2019re obviously not ready to bring back crushed velvet shirts or anything, but we definitely do appreciate some high-quality fabrics to add style and flair to your design.<\/p>\n<h2>Velvet Roller Shades<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/roller-shades\/designer-fabric-roller-shades.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1068\" src=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/designer-fabric-roller-shades-1275-1-cid-14485-charcoal-matte-velour.jpeg\" alt=\"designer fabric roller shades\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/designer-fabric-roller-shades-1275-1-cid-14485-charcoal-matte-velour.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/designer-fabric-roller-shades-1275-1-cid-14485-charcoal-matte-velour-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/designer-fabric-roller-shades-1275-1-cid-14485-charcoal-matte-velour-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/designer-fabric-roller-shades-1275-1-cid-14485-charcoal-matte-velour-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/designer-fabric-roller-shades-1275-1-cid-14485-charcoal-matte-velour-676x676.jpeg 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Our Designer Fabric Roller Shades collection offers some very beautiful and high-quality fabrics. Velvet actually works very well with rollers because, while they are practical, they are also very plain. The velvet fabric adds a modern edge to these window treatments.<\/p>\n<p>Personally, we\u2019re quite partial to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/roller-shades\/designer-fabric-roller-shades.html?ColorId=14485&amp;ColorName=Charcoal%20Matte%20Velour\">Charcoal Matte Velour<\/a>. The soft fabric makes the dark shades pop and accentuates their smooth finish. Their soft nature softens the colour as well and makes even dark colour blend in seamlessly.<\/p>\n<h2>Velvet Roman Shades<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/roman-shades\/contemporary-roman-shades.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1069\" src=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/contemporary-roman-shades-1264-1-cid-14136-netsuke-matte-velvet.jpeg\" alt=\"contemporary roman shades\" width=\"680\" height=\"680\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/contemporary-roman-shades-1264-1-cid-14136-netsuke-matte-velvet.jpeg 680w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/contemporary-roman-shades-1264-1-cid-14136-netsuke-matte-velvet-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/contemporary-roman-shades-1264-1-cid-14136-netsuke-matte-velvet-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/contemporary-roman-shades-1264-1-cid-14136-netsuke-matte-velvet-676x676.jpeg 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/roman-shades\/contemporary-roman-shades.html\">Contemporary Roman Shades<\/a> are one of the most elegant shades you can work into your home. They have a modern edge but still maintain a smooth, streamlined, and classy appearance. We absolutely love the Netsuke Matte Velvet fabric. It\u2019s the perfect neutral and the high-quality look and feel of the velvet give them a much more stylish edge. Roman shades add sophistication to any room and the added velvet texture is yet another bonus!<\/p>\n<h2>Velvet Drapes<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/custom-made-draperies\/classic-grommet-custom-made-drapes.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1070\" src=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/classic-grommet-drapes-curtains-1283-1-cid-13896-ivory-matte-velour.jpeg\" alt=\"grommet drapes\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/classic-grommet-drapes-curtains-1283-1-cid-13896-ivory-matte-velour.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/classic-grommet-drapes-curtains-1283-1-cid-13896-ivory-matte-velour-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/classic-grommet-drapes-curtains-1283-1-cid-13896-ivory-matte-velour-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/classic-grommet-drapes-curtains-1283-1-cid-13896-ivory-matte-velour-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/classic-grommet-drapes-curtains-1283-1-cid-13896-ivory-matte-velour-676x676.jpeg 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve noticed drapes are somewhere in the middle these days. We know some influencers who can\u2019t live without layered drapes and others who prefer blinds or shades only. This is really up to you, but if you\u2019re planning to add draperies to your home, we highly recommend our Classic Grommet Drapes\/Curtains. There are several velvet\/velour options that you can choose from to add texture to your monochromatic colour scheme.<\/p>\n<p>While you can layer velvet shades with velvet drapes, we wouldn\u2019t particularly recommend it. Part of the beauty and elegance of velvet comes from using the fabric in moderation. A little goes a long way so we recommend you keep it simple.<\/p>\n<h2>Do You Need More Texture?<\/h2>\n<p>Yes \u2013 the answer is always yes! From different fabrics to different furniture finishes and flooring options, we recommend getting out of your comfort zone and experimenting a little bit. Soft textures combined with natural, fibrous ones can help add so much character to your room. It\u2019s much more understated than combining too many colours or prints (which you want to stay away from).<\/p>\n<p>What are some of your recommendations for enhancing and highlighting your monochromatic home d\u00e9cor style?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019re into velvet finishes this season (aren\u2019t we all?) then you won\u2019t want to miss out on our luxurious velvet window coverings.
