Cloth window blinds

January 5th, 2007

Window blinds and shades are some of the most practical window treatments you can buy. While most generally lack the warmth and excitement of fabric draperies and valances, they can make excellent choices when you have budgetary constraints, need them only for a short time, when function is more of a priority than color and softness, or when you prefer their simplicity over fabric treatments. Most commonly they are merely the first step in layering your windows with multiple treatments-putting the blinds or shades first, then adding valances and optional stationary side draperies later. Cloth window blinds are definitely a good choice to consider.

Some of the most beautiful shades are called Vignettes and Cascades, which are less expensive alternatives to custom fabric Roman shades. Silhouettes are made of sheer fabric-they work like a shade and a blind all in one. These are the most versatile and unique shades available. Cloth window shades are definitely worth looking into for affordability.
