Does your home have windows?
I’m hoping you said yes. If it does have windows, then you will for sure need something to cover them up. Winter is coming, and not only do blinds help to keep the cold out and warmth in, they also provide a visual “warmth” to your space.
At designQ, we offer numerous varieties of blinds and shades. Each come with their own pro’s and con’s, and of course their own price point.
So how much do they cost? Well that depends. Here are a few factors that would affect the price of blinds for your home:
- Type of Blind – Do you want a wood, a shade, a cellular, a shutter…
- How many windows does your home have?
- What sizes are those windows?
- What style of header would you like?
- What type of operating system do you prefer – manual, or something more snazzy?
- Would you like a standard fabric, or an upgraded fabric?
- And the list goes on…
To give you an idea of an approximate cost —–
For a roller shade, with a standard header & operating system and starter fabric selections, based on an average 10 window home, with installation they would start at $4,200 pre-gst.
For a dual shade, with a standard header & operating system and starter fabric selections, based on an average 10 window home, with installation they would start at $5,000 pre-gst
For a faux wood blind, with a standard header & operating system, and based on an average 10 window home, with installation they would start at $6,100 pre-gst. .

Custom Drapery

Drapery is like the lipstick to your windows. It’s the cherry on top of the cake. It’s the sprinkles on the doughnut. It’s…. you get what I’m saying.
Is drapery needed to effectively block out the light, or give you privacy? No. Blinds or shades can do that no problem.
But is drapery wanted? Oh yeah. A beautiful drapery panel that coordinates effortlessly with your interior adds that finishing touch to any room. It just kicks your interior up a notch, and will get people asking (or at least thinking) – is this a showhome?
The options for drapery are endless. Which again makes giving a price without seeing your home or home plans very difficult.
A few things to consider when selecting drapery:
- What material, style, color, feel of fabric would you like?
- What type of header style?
- Don’t forget about the rod and finials (those little end caps to keep the fabric in place) – there are as many options of those as there are fabric colors!
- How many windows does your home have?
- What size are the windows?
- And on and on…
To give you an idea of an approximate cost —
To complete drapery in an average 10 window home with a starter fabric panel in a standard height, with a standard header and traditional rods & finials, with installation they would start at $6,100 pre-gst.
But would you really want the neutral, beige lipstick?
Wall Paper and Wall Features
Imagine if you were a fish. Not a big scary fish, but a little goldfish in a bowl on a console table in someone’s home. And what do fish do all day long? They swim around, and check out their surroundings. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could give that fish something cool to look at? Because who wants a boring wall?
Enter – wall paper and wall features.
The growing trend for this year, and into next year as well is wallpaper, But this isn’t your Grandma’s wallpaper. Oh no. This new wallpaper has texture, character, color, soul. It has everything you want to spice up your… room… and create a stunning backdrop.
Just like drapery, there are a million choices of wallpaper. But it really boils down to what look you are trying to achieve. There are wallpapers that have a strong bohemian vibe to them, or a geometric style, even full on murals. But there are also very calm, soothing natural papers that add just a touch of shine to your room without being overbearing.
And let’s not forget about wall features. When I say features, I mean a statement piece for your wall that is more than just paper. Think rustic barn wood with knots and cracks, stunning shiplap panels, faux brick or even concrete panels. If you can think it, chances are it’s out there somewhere (maybe not at designQ – but we will try our best). Feature walls are in line with wallpaper trend wise. Everyone is doing it. It’s all the rage on Pinterest and HGTV – and so you might as well add it to your home because we don’t think it’s going away anytime soon.
To give you an idea of an approximate cost —
For wallpaper, on a 8′ x 14′ flat, basic wall for a starter (but still excellent quality from the UK) Geometric paper, with install it would be $1,100 pre-gst.
For rustic barn wood panels, on a 8′ x 14′ flat, basic wall it would be, with installation, $2,100 pre-gst.
