In the summer months when the sun (hopefully) pours through your windows filling your room with light and warmth, it can be hard to know what color drapes to have up.
If you do live in a warmer climate it does pay to swap out heavier drapes for summer window treatments as you don't want to block the light or for your existing scheme to look out of season. As a general rule of thumb, lighter colors reflect sunlight whereas dark colors absorb it, making a room feel warmer than you may like.
