Roller shades that are soft to the touch offer a classic look from Blinds Chalet

Roller shades are sometimes overlooked for window coverings that home decorators may consider softer or more stylish.

But with a selection that includes light-filtering, blackout and sunscreen versions, Blinds Chalet has a roller shade that combines durability with the softness in other styles of window shades.

"Finally, a roller shade that's soft to the touch!" states the company's website. "We offer you the classic lines of a roller shade with the added beauty of soft, drapery style fabrics."

The range of textures, weaves and colors are almost limitless for both traditional and contemporary design schemes. All feature a fabric wrapped bottom rail and all shade cords come in either white or off-white.

Among the selections from Blinds Chalet is the Noble Translucent Roller Shade, which comes in designer fabrics and are made from an eco-friendly, PVC-free polyester material with a ribbed pattern. A unique patented secure grip spline that attaches the fabric to the roller prevents it from falling off the tube and keeps the fabric securely aligned.

The Noble roller shades come in white, off-white, chocolate and coffee hues.
