Lighten Up

/in ,

After weeks of limited outside contact, our homes have become not only sanctuaries, but offices, gyms and school rooms. As we near the end of some of the Directed Health Measures, it’s time to lighten up.  Let us elevate your home decor with custom window coverings from Marco Shutters. Best of all, during the month of May, you may qualify for a special discount.

One popular way to lighten up is with painted wood indoor shutters like these, that allow light to come in while maintaining privacy. All Marco Shutters, whether stained or painted, have a hidden tilt rod that allows them to be effortlessly adjusted to control light.

Once you adjust the louvers to the perfect position, they stay in place without slipping or shifting. Because great style doesn’t just come in one size, Marco Shutters offers louvers in widths of 2.5”, 3.5” and 4.5”. They are nearly maintenance-free and come with a 20-year warranty.

We can also lighten up your decor with transitional shades. These classic window coverings come in neutral sheer fabric on each side of colored vanes. Opened vanes gently veil light. When fully closed, the vanes diffuse light. Options are available for complete privacy with blackout material. Available in several colors and fabric choices, there is an option for nearly any color scheme.

Real wood blinds and faux wood blinds are also available to accent your decor in style. Wood blinds come in a variety of paints and stains and wood species.  Slat widths are available in 1″, 2″ & 2 1/2″ sizes, as well as cordless options. Solid or decorative cotton tapes are offered. And, they have a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

As you can see, there are many ways to lighten up with our custom window coverings. But, why call us? Marco Shutters is a locally-owned business – not a franchise – and your continued support helps our local economy thrive! We’re committed to sourcing everything we use from local suppliers and from manufacturers in the United States. The support of those who’ve been our customers in the past is important to us, which is why we’re offering a 10% discount as a thank you to repeat customers now through May 31, 2020.

Safety in Shades

/in

Being home for an extended period of time can bring a new perspective. Instead of rushing through the living room, now you have an opportunity to really look at what’s there. The fresh new light of springtime can be beautiful. Or perhaps, you find the light a little strong and in need of filtering. Allure® Transitional Shades from Marco Shutters could be the perfect solution.

Patterned Shades Add Texture and InterestAllure® Transitional Shades provide the privacy of a window shade with the softened view of a sheer curtain. Available in more than 20 colors and patterns, you can have the look of a blind, or select a patterned design to add interest and texture to your decor.

Keeping Safety In Mind

If you’re concerned about the little ones at home and their safety, Allure® Transitional Shades from Marco Shutters also have a cordless option. There’s nothing to tangle with in this shade style. Easily raise or lower the shade with a gentle touch.

For larger windows or simply for the sake of convenience, motorized operation is also an option for Marco Shutters window shades.

Using a remote control, you can easily open and close the shades. But, if a remote is too old-school for you, Amazon Alexa or phone apps can also control your shades’ operation.

Fabric choices vary from sheer to complete light blocking. Beauty blends with privacy, allowing you to go from light filtering to total room darkening. Vanes come in various widths, and an impressive selection of fabric types offers many options to complement your decor and personal style.

We have solutions for your new normal with everyone home. Helping you to make sense of your space is our specialty.

It could be time to help the kids to be more organized. Marco Closets has the perfect solutions for reach-in closets. Customizations can be made for the needs of each child. Better yet, adjustments can be made as children grow. With compartmentalized sections for hanging clothes, drawers, hampers and other custom elements, it’ll be easy for them to clean their rooms, and keep them looking neat.

Storage Solutions For Every Room

If your home office needs a makeover, we have a solution for that.  Cabinets for storing supplies and file cabinets that look like furniture will make your home office both efficient and attractive. Even if you can’t add a door to close off distractions, you can make a work area that that promotes efficiency and creates a comfortable working space.

Do you know what’s in your pantry? Are those bottles of water taking over the available space so that you can’t find the snacks? Marco Closets’ custom pantry solutions help you to organize your space so that everything is visible and accessible.

And if your garage has been crowded by your emergency supply of toilet paper and paper towels, we have custom garage storage solutions, too.
