Decorating With Faux Wood Window Blinds

By Jerri Perry


Faux wood window blinds are one of the best methods of applying effective window treatments to a home. They can be purchased at a reasonable price, are easy to install and maintain, and are available in colors and shades that will match an entire home. They work equally well in bedrooms, living areas, kitchens, and baths.

Choose the element that they are to be coordinated with. It could be the floors, walls, furniture, baseboards or even your art collection. So many different colors and shades are available that it can be difficult to select one among several. Shades to consider include white, light oak, white, cream, ivory, walnut or cherry.

These products can be purchased in standard lengths and widths and special ordered for odd sized openings. Any product, from a large picture window to a tiny bathroom square, can be made to fit your own personal specifications. Some can even be cut to size on the spot for your decorating convenience.

Pets will find it difficult to bend, scratch or destroy these treatments. The treatments are very sturdy and indestructible and excellent for families with small and very active children. In an area of your home that receives large amounts of sun, they can actually help save on your air conditioning bill by keeping the sun out during the hot summer months.

Cleaning is a snap - just use soap and warm water for dust, discolorations and stains. These treatments are absolutely perfect for residences in high-humidity areas as they are moisture proof, will not splinter or fade, and can withstand very warm and cold temperatures. If you are the owner of a house, cabin or trailer at a lake or seaside, they would really be the perfect treatment for your windows.

The biggest plus of buying these products is the cost savings involved compared to purchasing real wood treatments. While many individuals are set on natural products, many cannot tell the difference between the two quality options. Savings are dramatic and if you are on a tight budget, faux styles are probably your very best choice.

Styles are available in a variety of textures such as a wood grain or an embossed motif if so desired. Add interest to the treatments by adding cornices, drapes, or valances after installing. Sometimes leaving them plain can be a best option as they are very attractive and allow specific amounts of sunlight in at the homeowner's discretion.

Shutter styles are also a viable option if you want a different look. More light will be able to stream in when they are fully open. They are also more decorative and unique. Expense can also be issue but they may be well worth the extra cost.

Faux wood window blinds will be a welcome addition to any house. The very simplicity and ease of choosing and installing these treatments will add instant charm to living quarters or home office. And don't forget how inviting they will make a house look from the outside.
