De Soto homeowners gravitate toward custom drapery because of the versatile architectural styles in the community—from traditional brick homes to contemporary designs. The Kansas River corridor homes often feature larger windows that benefit from custom layering with drapery over motorized shades for both style and light control. Our area's four-season climate makes thermal-lined drapery an excellent choice for energy efficiency in winter and sun control in summer. Formal dining rooms and master bedrooms in the Sunflower and Lexington Park neighborhoods particularly suit custom drapery, which adds the sophisticated finishing touch that commands attention in these showcase spaces. De Soto's newer developments often come with builder-grade basics, making custom drapery one of the highest-impact upgrades homeowners can make. We've installed hundreds of custom drapery across Johnson County, and De Soto residents consistently choose quality fabrics and timeless styles they'll enjoy for decades.
