Woven Wood Roman Blinds
Woven wood roman blinds are used to transition the atmosphere in your home from the great outdoors and they do it like no other window treatment can. With grace and beauty they stand up and announce to the world that comfort and warmth are here in this place. These shades are also called natural shades by some manufacturers. Regardless of what they are called they are beautiful to look at.
Wood and Cord
Woven shades are made of different types of fine wood slats, wood dowels and different types of colorful cord or yarn. They are woven by hand in some cases but today they are usually woven by machine into intricate patterns.
Today the natural look takes prominence with most of the cord and ropes done in natural tones. A few years back color was the rule of the day and the cords were brightly colored.
Woven wood roman blinds are a class act by themselves. They will do justice to any room setting and can be used in just about any style of room except maybe modern. I think they are a little too natural for the modern chrome and glass look.
Natural shades can be used with other window treatments to soften the window and bring those extra smiling glances that visitors give when they first see the treatment.
Add a cornice and a pair of side panels to a natural shade and you have a marriage made in heaven. Take a piece of raw silk and drape it swag style over your natural shade and let the ends naturally drop to the floor, creating one of those window treatments that cause jaws to drop.
Use On Porches
One of the main types of natural shades is the bamboo roman blinds. This blind can be used on enclosed porches where there is a chance they will get wet just make sure that if they do get wet you don't roll them up wet. Let them dry out first otherwise if rolled up wet they tend to mildew.
Can't Look Out
Woven wood roman blinds have one big glaring drawback and that is you can't see out your window when they are in the down position. They are an all or none type treatment, you can either see out the window or you can't. There is no middle ground or compromise.
In the down position you do get to see the full pattern of the richly woven material which in my estimation makes up for not being able to see out, especially on a dreary day.
Woven woods roman blinds are one of those window treatments that seem to be timeless. Use them to add a little "paradise" to your home.
