Brighten Your Home with Garden Windows: Perfect for Spring Home Improvement Projects

If you’ve been looking for a way to lighten up a room in your home, we think garden windows are a good way to go! Many people like to tackle a new home improvement project in the spring, so now would be a good time to start planning your new garden window from the window installation experts at Window Nation. You’re probably wondering what a garden window is. A quick Pinterest search finds many creative ideas for making window boxes and growing seedlings in your windows to create a kind of ‘greenhouse’ effect. However, these are do-it-yourself projects and never look very professional. True garden windows are installed by window installation experts and will provide a bright and sunny area, perfect for growing plants on your window sill all year long! A garden window resembles a bay window, but with panes of glass all around; these windows really do resemble a mini-greenhouse! They offer plenty of daylight and ventilation to create the perfect environment for plants, even in the middle of winter. Now that spring is here, wouldn’t it be a great time to have one of these windows installed in your home to prepare you for NEXT winter? We know, it’s too early to be thinking about next winter already, but if you don’t plan now, you might miss out on a great opportunity to have one of these gorgeous windows installed in your home. Garden windows are fantastic for a couple of reasons. Along with creating a space to let your indoor garden grow, they also can increase the sunlight in any room. A lot of folks like to have them installed right above their kitchen sink. This is a great place to have extra light, especially if you like to daydream out the window while doing the dishes. These windows can be energy efficient too! The glass panes are insulated and they have a low U factor, which means they are resistant to heat flow, keeping warm air in during the winter and hot air out during the summer. Energy efficient windows can save you money on your heating and cooling bills, which means that over time, these windows will pay for themselves!
