When shopping for window blinds, there are a few things to keep in mind. In this post, we'll guide you through the process of purchasing new window blinds, from considering the different types of blinds available to measuring your windows.
Types of window blinds
There are many different types of window blinds available on the market, from blackout shades to roller shades to faux wood blinds. Consider the look you want to achieve in your space, as well as the level of light and privacy you need, when choosing the right type of blind for your windows.
Blackout shades are a popular option for many rooms because they offer more light blocking and privacy. Blackout shades are available in a variety of materials, including fabric, and motorized options.
Roller shades are a great choice for rooms that need light filtering, such as living rooms and kitchen. Roller shades are also available in a variety of materials, including fabrics that will filter light out more or less.
Faux wood blinds are a classic choice for any room in the home. Faux wood blinds add warmth and natural beauty to a space. Faux wood blinds are available in a variety of colours and finishes.
Measuring your windows
Once you've decided on the type of blind you want, it's time to measure your windows. Measuring your windows is a critical step in the blind-purchasing process, as it will ensure that your blinds fit properly and look great in your space.
When measuring your windows, be sure to measure the width of the window at both the top and bottom. The width of the window will determine the size of the blind.
Next, measure the height of the window from the top of the window to the windowsill. The height of the window will determine the length of the blind.
Finally, measure the depth of the windowsill. The depth of the windowsill will determine the length of the blind.
Now that you know how to measure your windows, you're ready to purchase new window blinds!
