Vertical blinds

Hi friends,
If you are considering what kind of window or door treatments to use in your home, vertical blinds may offer a solution. They have several advantages. You can open or close them to adjust the level of natural light in a room. Vertical blinds also provide a privacy screen. They have a clean stylish look and are easy to operate and install. As well, they provide insulation from drafts. There are a number of locations in a home where a vertical blind could be appropriate. It can be fitted to windows where you want to maximize light while maintaining privacy. An example is a sunny room where you spend a lot of time but which is in view of passing traffic. Alternatively, a vertical blind may be appropriate for large French doors. Vertical blinds are great for decorating doors that receive a lot of traffic. Placing a horizontal blind on a door might cause people to bump their head on it. If you use a vertical blind instead, it can be stored to the side of the threshold out of the way. Some people have replaced curtains with a vertical blind or used them in combination. Cooking smells can get into the material of thick curtains, so a blind can be an alternative choice of decoration for the kitchen. A blind provides privacy during the day, unlike curtains that are drawn at night. For added warmth and privacy, you might want to decorate a window or door with both a vertical blind and curtains. There are a multitude of designs and materials when it comes to choosing a vertical blind. You can even find styles made with extra lining to help keep your bedroom dark at night. Some popular colors and fabrics are cream or ivory canvas or cotton. As well, you can now find lots of new styles such as bamboo or suede.
