Most people would agree that discussions about home decor and styling often miss out windows. And although there is an overwhelming amount of information on the internet about possibly everything, we do not hear our favourite stylists, decorators, and interior designers talk nearly enough about windows in particular. Windows provide light and brightness to any room while being an important element in the process of ventilation. While they are practical and essential, we often forget about making them pretty, but that changes today because we have curated the ultimate eight ways for you to style your windows and sprinkle a little main character pixie dust on them.
8 Efficient Ways To Decorate Your Windows And Scale Up Your Views
Planters
Lets be honest, plants are something that can brighten up any space, no matter where you put them. So, hanging plants or just plotting them alongside your windows will definitely add a lot of freshness and greenery. This idea is also a hack in itself, as it will keep your plants healthy and growing with all the fresh air and sunlight.

Lights
With the holiday season coming, you have to adorn your windows with a series of lights that are going to bring a warm, cozy feeling to your place. Lights and profile lighting can subtly transform your room and create focal points that complement the rest of your decor. However, hanging lamps and lights would not make sense unless you have a corner window or there is a table attached near it, although we do recommend fairy lights or string lights that will be perfect for festivals as well as for adding a magical feel to your room.

A Seating Space
Creating a window seating space is not only a way to style your window space; it is also an effective method to add more storage to your home. Building this seating would require a bench top, some storage underneath, and the magic of soft furnishing, and you would have something comfortable and chic to sit on, relax, and have your evening cuppa while looking out your window.

Drapes
Drapes are literally a no-brainer when it comes to styling windows. Most homes already have them, making them an easy and economical way to style and get some privacy. But your drapes shouldn't have to be boring or in dull solid colours, with stock patterns. Easy, breezy, lightweight drapes with soft colours, are perfect for someone going for a minimal aesthetic and can bring in more light and brightness inside. Plus, there are some unconventional drapes available as well, like beads and macramé, that can also provide a fresh look.

A Work Station
After the pandemic, many offices have started working in a hybrid mode, where most days you sit at your desk and work. So, for a literal change in scenery (without travelling or stepping outside) you could shift your desk towards the windows. It will give you fresh motivation as well as transform your space around your window. You can put up plants, light curtains, your books, and candles—a perfect way to brighten your work day every day.

Books
Another very simple way to decorate your windows is to keep your books in tandem with the soft drapes and plants. Books look really good as a part of your decoration and bring a sophisticated elegance to the whole place. When adding them as part of your window decor, keep in mind to stack a number of them so they don't fall that easily.
