Bamboo Shades Styled Into Woven Woods

Filed under: bamboo shades, decor, window treatments — Tags: , , , — admin @ 8:00 am

When a product is initially developed and first introduced to the marketplace, a few options are available but as demand grows for the product the features available increase accordingly. Imagine the time when automobiles were introduced and how “bare bones” these early models were specially when compared to the present automobile. This kind of evolutionary process has also occurred in the window treatment industry; perhaps this process should be named revolutionary. Besides the many choices available, there exists a wide range of styles, designs and colors within each category. And when focusing on bamboo shades the availability of styles, colors and designs is varied and able to satisfy any decor demand. No wonder bamboo shades are so popular.

Modern decorative trends, which include bamboo shades as a part of the decorative scheme, have moved in the direction of the unconventional. Historically, the American consumer has chosen the traditional white when choosing a window treatment. While bamboo shades are available in white regardless of the “stick” pattern, modern decor is calling for more unique patterns. This “call” includes different types of stick materials as well as enhanced weaving and interlacing of threads.

Because the main component of a bamboo shade is the stick, bamboo suppliers have dedicated a lot of effort to stick design and coloring in order to create new decorative options and also in an effort to increase sales to consumers. Also, natural bamboo colors, such as the tortoise shell pattern once considered unpopular, has now regained popularity perhaps because of the human trend to feel close to the earth and the ecology movement. What once was considered scraps from bamboo shade fabrication is now useful materials being recycle due to new production techniques. When all these factors are added together, the end result has been an increase in colors and designs and a reduction of cost.

Advantages of Plantation Shutters

There are so many different options for window coverings for your home. These include blinds, shades, curtains, louvers, and shutters. One option that many people don’t think about when they are looking for window treatments is plantation shutters. There are a lot of advantages to getting plantation shutters.

Plantation shutters are one option that can really improve the looks of your windows.  These shutters look great, and usually look so nice you don’t even need to add a valance or curtains like you do with blinds or shades. They are usually made of wood, wood composite, or imitation wood. They can be custom made to fit any window, even those with odd shapes and curves that are hard to fit with many window treatment options. There are many different types of finishes and colors, so they can be made to match the décor in your house.

Plantation shutters are also long lasting. Blinds and shades can wear out relatively quickly, sometimes within only a couple years.  Metal blinds can get bent, and vinyl shades can tear. Fabric shades and blinds can get dusty and dingy looking and be difficult to clean. However, plantation shades are much sturdier and much less likely to wear out in a short time. They are also easily dusted so that they can be kept looking nice and clean.

Cellular Shades and Blinds

Shades are window coverings or casings, which sieve and filter the strong sunlight from entering a room and hence, helping it remain cool. Cellular shades or light filtering shades are very artistic and are a visual delight. This is due to their unique honeycomb shape. When the shades are lowered, they afford adequate seclusion to the owner but at the same time allow light to filter in. Many a times these shades are made in wood, so that they act as effective insulators by preventing the cold to enter the rooms.

Cellular shades are accordion-style in shape and light in weight. They are available in soft textured woven or non-woven fabrics as well. The blinds are packed in such a manner as to create their unique cross-sectional shape, which traps air and creates energy efficiency and sound reduction. Cellular shades not only provide solitude but also promote energy savings. This is possible because of the natural light filtering in the room even when the shades are lowered. These shades are assembled out of several sheets of materials and have many linked chambers that form a distinctive honeycomb pattern.

Bamboo blinds are a popular choice in blinds because they are so durable. Bamboo is a very strong wood material, allowing the blinds to last for a long time and have excellent resistance to the normal wear and tear of blinds. Some bamboo blinds can be expensive, but the extra price is well justified because of the extreme quality of the blinds.

Why do our customers love bamboo products so much? The bamboo shade is a very exciting product that is becoming a big hit among home owners and decorators alike.

I guess it’s because bamboo looks so nice in just about any environment — and it’s also true that items made from bamboo will be very durable. That means that purchasing blinds made from bamboo will prove to be a good value, sometimes long outlasting similar blinds made from other materials.

Natural Woven Wood Shades are made from bamboo, rattan, jute, grass, & reeds. These shades bring the beauty of nature indoors while at the same time providing insulation against summer’s heat and winter’s cold. These two elements combine to make this window covering an unbeatable choice.

Bamboo Blinds and Shades

Bamboo Blinds are as versatile as traditional Blinds and shades. Custom Bamboo blinds and shades have many options that can be added to them. Choose from Top Down/ Bottom Up or add a Privacy or Blackout Liner to your Bamboo Blinds. Add an accent with a color coordinated cloth Binding or a custom Hem. Bamboo Blinds are available in all price ranges to fit any budget. Choose a ready made Bamboo Blind if you are on a budget or a custom made bamboo blind and have it sized to fit your window with the colors and options you select.

When shopping for bamboo blinds please be aware that bamboo is a natural product and that colors and hues can vary from one dye lot to another. The same pattern of bamboo can vary from a green tint to a brown tint. This is not considered a defect, and if it’s a custom bamboo blind it cannot be returned or exchanged as this is considered to be the nature of the product. If you are purchasing bamboo blinds for more than one window make sure you purchase all the shades at the same time to avoid the shades being a different dye lot.
