Custom Wood Blinds

• Deciding between real and faux wood?

Real wood blinds are the ultimate in complementing any style of décor and offering an inviting, traditional look with a rich patina that only real wood can provide. Hardwood blinds are durable and lightweight, making them ideal for large windows. Most wooden blinds are harvested from timber using sustainable forestry techniques and come in a wide variety of stains to match most hand-rubbed furniture, molding or flooring. Wood blinds can also be distressed for the rustic look or stained in modern colors for a more contemporary feel. Slat sizes, valances, motorization and routeless options add to the many choices. Cloth tapes bestow the finishing touch to wood blinds to enhance color and design appeal. Add style and sophistication to your décor with wood blinds and enjoy the natural look of real wood grain in a diverse range of stains and textures.

What to Consider When Selecting Wood Blinds

Slat Size

Larger windows typically require a larger slat size, while the inverse is true for smaller windows. The most popular size for wood blinds are 2" slats.

Finishes

Wood blinds are available with many different finishes and stains, most suitable for a neutral palette.

Customizable Options

Lift

• Cordless: Removes the lift cord, allowing you to operate the blind by pushing or pulling on the bottom rail. Even with a cordless option, you will still have vertical support cords running through each slat.

Tilt

• Wand: Open and close your slats in a single twist. Wands can be placed on the left, right, or center of your wood blinds.
• Motorized: Some wood blinds can be upgraded with a motorized tilt, a luxurious feature that’s also useful for hard-to-reach windows.

Decorative Accents

• Cloth Tapes: Cover the standard support cords with a stylish cloth tape to add a finishing touch that allows the addition of an accent color or design.
• Valances: Include a decorative top portion that will cover the headrail for a complete look. These are available in matching colors and materials.
