Woven Woods
Create a rustic, natural look and feel around your windows with woven wood shades that have a unique texture. Woven woods shades go well with white walls and wooden floors and window frames. The wood design creates an extra layer of warmth for your home by your windows. Woven woods also create a darker tone for any room, as their material blocks out the sun from filling the room. If wood features are a major theme of a room in your home, you should match them with woven wood shades.
Vertical Blinds
If you?re looking to cover large windows in your home, a great idea to look into would be vertical blinds. These shutters don?t cover your windows horizontally like most blinds; they go vertically from top to bottom. The vertical blinds extend down from a track installed at the top of your windows. They can be pulled across to completely cover your windows or a sliding glass door. Their design offers an easy and convenient way to open your blinds as much as you?d like to let the light in. If you have a large sliding glass or patio door at the back of your home, vertical blinds are the perfect choice to accompany this large area.
Roller and Solar Shades
Solar shades are a common type of roller shades that feature a screen material that can easily block harmful and annoying UV rays from making their way through your windows. There are different options for solar shades available, including ones that offer more transparency and ones that are specifically designed to block UV rays. Roller and solar shades typically come with a cord for easy lifting and lowering. Different fabrics can be chosen to increase privacy.
Wood and Metal Blinds
For a distinctive look that is also sure to keep the light out of your home, try wood or metal blinds. Wood blinds are typically made of hardwood slats with a solid grade finish for a unique look that projects strength and warmth in your home. Wood blinds can accompany other wood features in any room. For a more modern, industrial look, many homeowners choose metal blinds typically made with aluminum slats that have a metallic and glossy look and feel. Metal blinds create a one-of-a-kind look and are sure to be successful at keeping unwanted sunlight away from the inside of your home.
