In my previous postings, I have touched a little bit on the different types of window blinds and their features. In this posting, I’m going to elaborate more on other types of popular window blinds such as Venetian blinds, wood slat blinds, mini blinds and woven blinds. As for vertical blinds, if you want more detail information, please go to my vertical blinds blog site http://www.inforeload.com/verticalblinds . One of the attractions of window blinds compare to other types of window treatments is that window blinds are easy to maintain and clean, durable as well as they’re great for heat and light control. If you need total privacy, you can choose from one of those sheer window blinds where it will block out 99% of the light from outside.
Ok let’s get started on the different types of popular window blinds. First on the list is Venetian blinds. Venetian blinds are made from aluminum, vinyl or plastic. The slats vary in width, from one to three inches, and they’re each slightly curved to compactly fit together. Slats are generally connected by nylon cord. In some Venetian blinds, twill tape hides this cord and pulley mechanism, and makes for a nice, clean finish on the window blinds. They can be raised and lowered for complete access to the window, or they can be adjusted in the down position to let in light. They come in decorator colors, for a custom look.
For those of you who likes wooden staff, there are wood slat blinds or bamboo blinds. Wood slat blinds feature thicker slats made of wood. They’re generally stained or painted, and operate like all other slats. They add richness to any room.
Next on the list are mini blinds. Mini blinds have become overwhelmingly popular in recent years. They are reasonably priced, and they come in a wide variety of slat sizes, widths and colors for the perfect fit. A new place to find blinds is between the glass on double hung or casement windows, thus eliminating maintenance of blinds while still having all the benefits of them. Another benefit to this type of in-window blind is unobstructed access to the windows they’re hung in.
One of my favorites are vertical blinds. Vertical blinds are popular on wide, sweeping windows and doors. They can be opened and closed for letting in and keeping out light, and can be pulled entirely to one side to admit maximum light or to access a window or door. The slats are generally PVC or metal, and hang from a track above the window or door. Sometimes the slats are connected at the bottom by a cord, but you can also find them without this feature. Some are electric, and operated by remote control.
Last but not least are woven blinds. Woven blinds don’t have slats that you can open and close. Instead, they feature very narrow slats that are woven together. Sunlight comes through the narrow spaces between the slats. They can be operated by a draw string, or by rolling them up to allow light in.
There are also other types of window blinds apart from the list above. However the most important thing about choosing the right window blinds is to have proper planning. You need to have mental picture or concept of how you want your home décor to look like. Once you have that, it’s easier to choose the right type of window blinds, the colors, textures and materials choices will just be a breeze for you.
