Your Home, Your Design—On Every Window
Custom printed roller shades give homeowners something no catalog window treatment can: a window covering that's uniquely yours. Whether you want to reproduce a favorite painting in your dining room, create a serene forest scene in your bedroom, or add bold geometric patterns to a modern living room, custom printed shades turn windows into design features rather than afterthoughts.
Room-by-Room Inspiration
Living Room
The living room is where custom printed shades make the biggest visual impact. Popular choices include:
- Abstract art prints on light-filtering fabric that glow when backlit by afternoon sun
- Panoramic cityscapes or landscapes that create a window-within-a-window effect
- Geometric patterns coordinated with existing furniture and decor
Bedroom
Bedrooms benefit from printed blackout shades that combine total darkness with beautiful design:
- Calming nature scenes—mountain ranges, ocean horizons, starry skies
- Subtle tone-on-tone patterns that add texture without visual noise
- Custom colors matched to your bedding and wall colors
Kitchen
Kitchen shades need to handle humidity and occasional splashes while looking fresh:
- Herb garden illustrations, botanical prints, or food-themed artwork
- Bright, energizing patterns and colors that complement tile and countertops
- Easy-clean fabrics that resist moisture and staining
Home Office
Create a productive, personalized workspace:
- Inspirational imagery—maps, architectural drawings, motivational typography
- Light-filtering fabrics that reduce screen glare while maintaining natural light
- Professional patterns that provide an attractive background for video calls
Children's Rooms
Make bedrooms magical for kids:
- Favorite characters, animals, or fantasy landscapes (using licensed or original artwork)
- Educational prints—solar systems, world maps, alphabet designs
- Blackout fabric for reliable nap times and bedtimes

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do custom printed shades cost for a typical home?
Residential custom printed shades from OrangePiel start at approximately $200-$400 per shade depending on size, fabric type, and complexity of the printed design. A typical home project covering 5-8 windows ranges from $1,500 to $3,000. We provide detailed quotes after your free design consultation.
Can I install custom printed shades myself?
Yes. Our shades come with straightforward mounting brackets and step-by-step instructions suitable for DIY installation with basic tools. Each shade requires just two bracket screws per side. We also offer professional installation if you prefer.
How do I clean custom printed roller shades?
Regular maintenance is simple: dust with a soft cloth or use a vacuum with a brush attachment. For spots, gently dab with a damp cloth and mild soap. Our UV-cured inks are water-resistant and won't smear or bleed during gentle cleaning.
Can I change the design later if I redecorate?
Yes. Our roller shade hardware accepts replacement fabric rolls, so you can order new printed fabric without replacing the entire mounting system. This makes redecorating more affordable than starting from scratch.
