Stunning Window Treatments Using Roman Blinds

Roman blinds are one of the least expensive ways to get a custom look for your room at a price that is affordable enough to make you sit up and take notice.

The living room and kitchen particularly can benefit from the use of such blinds in that they are easily available in custom fabrics so they don’t need to be refaced, and when combined with a valance of a contrasting color and texture they are simply striking.

If your walls are of an earth tone, combinations such as peach and brown, or beige and red gold, or orange will make an unbeatable combination.

The valance below is topped over one of the Roman blinds found on site at Bamboo Blinds.

The Texture of this blind is multiple layers, and the colors are tan and brown or beige which will look equally nice with either a print valance or a solid color one in a shade to match the stripe in the roman blind.

One of the more wonderful aspects of Roman blinds is their capacity to be easily washed for keeping them nice in the kitchen.

Without the slats which go horizontally across them, they are loosely laid and pull up easily with the draw string.

When the horizontal slats are added, it creates a tauter look to the window and again will retract easily to be lifted and lowered at your convenience when you want to view the outside world, of watch it go by as the case may be.

These shades are available in lined versions which will be extremely helpful for those who live in warmer or cooler climates.

The blinds on their own are utility saving devices.

The lighter color of this blind would go well with a deeper wall, of the more classic variety of stucco or the deep velvet colors that are more popular today.
