Elevate Your Work From Home Space with Custom Shades

It’s always exciting to give your living or working space a fresh, new vibe. A complete remodel isn’t always possible, however, whether due to restraints on your time, budget, or interest. Sometimes something as small and simple as a new window treatment can be enough of a facelift to fully revitalize a room. When it comes to window treatments options for your home or office, consider custom shades.

Custom shades are available in any number of unique styles and designs. They are fairly inexpensive, but have a dramatic impact on the overall look and feel of a room, making them a very cost-effective upgrade. Blinds, shades, and other window treatments are great for setting a tone and complementing other décor elements. Shades in particular can be customized to match any aesthetic you desire, and they will be guaranteed to fit and function properly on your specific windows.

Here are a few exciting reasons to choose custom shades for your home or office!

Privacy

If you are interested in keeping your affairs to yourself and away from the prying eyes of neighbors and passersby, shades are the choice for you. They offer a level of privacy that curtains and other materials cannot match. Along with looks from outsiders, shades will also keep out most sunlight, preventing your furniture and wall hangings from fading or keeping a bedroom dark for better sleep.

Energy-Efficiency

Shades can be lowered to cover the entire surface of a window, fully retracted to expose all the glass, or partially rolled up to land anywhere in between. Having precise control over how much light is let into a room will allow you to take advantage of as much or as little heat from the sun is needed for your comfort. Closed shades in the summer will keep your room cooler and require less air conditioning, while open shades in the winter will let the warmth of natural sunlight take some of the demand off your furnace, allowing you to save on energy bills year-round.

Maintenance

Shades are built to be long-lasting and require little upkeep. They should not need to be replaced, unless you choose to in order to update your interior design, and they will not need to be washed like curtains. Shades may accumulate dust, but this can be quickly and easily wiped off with a damp cloth.

Revive Family Pieces with Re-Upholstery

22 Dec, 2022

Is Re-upholstery the Right Choice For You? With the holiday season in full swing, the nostalgia of family traditions and memories often surrounds us. There’s always something that can remind us of our loved ones, whether it’s Grandma’s recipe book, a photo album of our parents from their younger years, or maybe even an heirloom chair or sofa, that has been passed from generation to generation. If you’re lucky enough to have inherited one of these beautiful heirloomed pieces, you may at some point come across needing to give this piece a little TLC, whether it is to revive the bounce of the cushions, or re-upholster the fabric. Should you find yourself in this position, Blinds Blinds Blinds is happy to help! Our skilled workroom can revitalize your cherished pieces, and make the best suggestions to maintain the integrity of your furniture, while refreshing the parts that have seen ware and tare. Our showroom houses a large selection of upholstery fabrics, with performance fabrics being the most popular option as of late. Performance fabrics have great wearability, are easy to clean, and also provide protection from most liquids soaking into the fabric. Velvets and chenille fabrics are also amongst those most popular, providing a classic and timeless look with their luxurious look and soft feel. When choosing to re-upholster your treasured piece, budget should be a consideration, as not all furniture pieces are great candidates. When making this decision, look at the construction of the piece, and consider the materials used in the frame of the furniture. Was this piece built to last? Often times if pieces are made with synthetic, plastic, or press board materials, they are not a good choice to re-upholster. Furniture constructed with real wood makes it a durable and long-lasting piece. Contact us today to learn more about our re-upholstery services!
