ROOM BY ROOM
Where wood blinds earn
their place in a Florida home.
Real wood is the warmest blind we install and the one that shows off a room best. It isn’t the right choice near water. Here’s the honest version, room by room.
01
Living rooms and dining rooms
This is where real grain shows best. A stain matched to your floors, furniture or cabinets makes the blinds look like part of the room instead of something added later.
02
Primary bedrooms
Close the slats for privacy and a darker room at night. Cloth tapes cover the cord holes and cut the pinpoints of light that come through standard slats.
03
Home offices and libraries
Tilt the slats to cut glare on your screen without losing daylight. Stained wood pairs naturally with bookshelves, desks and built-ins.
04
Wide windows in dry rooms
Because basswood is lighter than faux wood, one real wood blind can cover a wider window before it sags. That means fewer splits and a cleaner line across the glass.
05
Bathroom or kitchen sink? Consider faux wood
Daily steam and splashes can warp real wood. Near a shower or a sink, faux wood blinds give you the same painted look and handle the moisture.
06
Want a built-in look? Consider plantation shutters
If you want wood that looks like part of the window frame, plantation shutters give you wide louvers and a permanent, finished look. They cost more than blinds.
