Bamboo Blinds
I have always had this problem with finding blinds and drapes. You see, I can never quite decide on what I want. Shades are okay, but they tend to get dusty very easily and fade in the sunlight. Blinds, on the other hand, have a pretty dull look to them from the beginning. I think Venetian blinds are great, but I can’t stand that cheap plastic look that so many of them have. I thought I would be doomed to be unhappy with my window coverings forever, but then I discovered bamboo blinds. Now, my decorative issues are solved.
Bamboo has become one of the most popular construction materials in the last few years because of its rich and beautiful color, its durability, and it’s cheapness and availability in many countries. People use it in flooring, in decoration, and in furniture all the time nowadays. I was unaware until recently, however, that you could get bamboo window blinds. I was delighted to find that out. They are gorgeous and extremely practical. Because they are made of slots of wood, bamboo blinds can cover the window almost completely, blocking out most light. Nonetheless, this doesn’t involve a sacrifice of appearance. They are still very attractive, and actually work very well as a decorative element in your room. Best of all, they are quite durable. They don’t fade in sunlight, they don’t get stained easily, and unless you break, them they will last forever.
