So you've decided to install a window awning for your house? Of course, this decision will require a bit more research than most as there are numerous options and each one of them has its own benefits. Let me tell you about some of the things I looked into when purchasing my faux copper window awnings
Window Awnings: What Are They
Window Awnings are commonly referred to as "portieres" or "draperies". These are generally made out of fabric that is draped over windows and doors to provide shade and privacy. These are typically made from either cotton or linen fabric which allow it to drape down easily over windows
The choice between cotton and linen depends on how much weight the fabric can hold. Cotton is generally used in heavier materials like cotton canvas or cotton sailcloth while linen is used in lighter materials like linen canvas or linen sailcloth. Linen offers more colors and designs since it doesn't need to be stretched as much as cotton does
In addition to color and design options, there are also different types of fabrics that can be used for window curtains/awnings such as velvet, satin and brocade. Each type
