Throwback Thursday – Mauve and Seafoam Swags and Cascades

Do you remember Mauve and Seafoam?

Pinky mauve and seafoam green were popular colors 20 years ago.  Window Designs Etc. custom made these swags and cascades for a Holden, MA home.

These are a variety of the traditional swag and cascades. Notice the style variety of the swags. Instead of the pleats forming at the ends, some of the pleats originate in the middle creating a fan effect.

Hunter Douglas Duette®s were only single cell in 1996.  The shades provide privacy and insulation.  The difference between these Duette®s and the Duette® Architella of today is the amount of insulation.  Today’s Duette® Architella is the premium energy saver.

Child safety regulations have also become stricter.  Sadly, there are still many of these outdated shades with dangerous dangling cords. Today’s Hunter Douglas products have cordless operating systems – a VERY safe development.

This #TBT series is good for a laugh but safety developments are serious.

Thankfully classic, timeless and SAFE design is the current trend.
