What Is a Window Panel?
Browse an interior design magazine and you will discover that window treatments dominate the pages. Two main categories that comprise the window treatment family are hard and soft treatments.The two styles can be used together or stand alone, which adds to their functionality and appeal. Shutters, glass, screens, and blinds make up the hard window treatment category, where draperies, curtains, shades, and valances round out the soft category. Window panels fall under the soft treatment category and have a deep history that extends to present day use.
