Choosing the Perfect Window Blinds, Vertical Blinds, or Wood
Blinds for Your Home
Choosing the perfect window treatments for your home is no easy
task these days with the fantastic selection of products on the
market. We are hoping to provide you with valuable information
to help you pick the right window coverings for every room.
Window blinds have always been a popular choice specifically
vertical blinds and wood blinds. They are great at providing
privacy but will also let in the right amount of light into the
room. Vertical blinds can be dressed up with valances and come
in a variety of styles and colors. Wood blinds can be the
perfect decorating accessory adding warmth and style to the
room. Most retailers carry a large selection on window blinds
because they are so popular.
Wood blinds add natural beauty to your home and can often be
found in a finish that matches your furniture. You can find them
in a variety of slat sizes ranging from 1" to 3". The right slat
size will often be determined by the size of the window along
with the size and shape of the room. A window covering
specialist will be able to help you select the appropriate size.
Window blinds all offer some sort of lifting and tilt feature.
You can choose from continuous cord loop or even cordless
systems that are extra safe because there is no dangling cord to
get caught up in. These are perfect for homes with small
children and pets. Most vertical blinds come with cords but they
are often short enough that small children can't reach them.
Speaking of vertical blinds, these are one of the easiest window
coverings to maintain and they provide the ultimate light
control. They are available in an array of colors and rich
textures and patterns. They are an excellent choice for sliding
glass doors because they can be drawn completely open. Some of
the leading manufacturers of window blinds and wood blinds
include Hunter Douglas, Levolor, Graber, and Bali.
