Buy Cheap Wooden Blinds
>> Monday, 8 February 2010
If you're thinking of re-decorating and you're looking for a cheap alternative to dressing up your windows, you may want to consider purchasing wooden blinds. They are never out of style, and they remain the classic blind that many new and old homeowners choose, above all other types of blinds on the market.
It's hard to say exactly why wooden blinds remain so popular, though it probably has a good deal to do with the fact that they are classy and they fit perfectly no matter how your room is furnished. They fit in well with the modern, elegant designs and with the homey old-style designs. And because they fit with any room décor, it doesn't matter how many times you re-decorate because the wood blinds will fit perfectly no matter what else you change in your room. Wooden blinds have a real warmth to them, which they add to any room they decorate.
Commonly, wood blinds are made from hardwoods and they are often finished with different stains, some stained light, other darker. You can even find painted wooden blinds, with white being a very popular choice for painted wooden blinds.
One thing to be aware of is that wood, even bass or hard wood does tend to warp in humid surroundings. For this reason they may not be the best choice if you live in a more humid climate and they aren't always the best choice for areas such as bathrooms. If humidity is a problem for you, there is also the option of faux wood blinds, which have a similar appeal and look almost they same but are more resistant to warping and damage by humidity.
There are many options when it comes to dressing up your windows with wooden blinds. There are some lovely wooden vertical blinds on the market these days, which are very elegant. My favourite is the wooden venetian blinds which look great and are very easy to keep clean. Wooden Roman blinds are also very popular choices too, although they're not as easy to care for as venetian blinds.
If you have non standard sized windows that's no problem at all, as most retailers offer either standard sized wooden blinds, or they can custom make them to suit you. You can also choose what slat size you would prefer. Customized blinds are slightly more expensive than the regular standard blinds, but not enough to make them un-affordable. Even custom wooden blinds are a very good choice for the budget conscious buyer. In fact, they are some of the cheaper blinds available these days. So, if you're looking for something classy and elegant, warm yet not too expensive, be sure to check out the selection of wooden blinds currently for sale. You'll be sure to come up with something that suits both your needs and your budget.
