Faux wood blinds have the rich look of wood at an affordable price

For the rich look of wood and the easy maintenance and durability of man-made materials, faux wood blinds from Blinds Chalet are a good choice for a window treatment.

"PVC and a composite of man-made materials combined with wood particles, faux wood blinds look just like real wood blinds and have the additional benefit of being fully washable and unaffected by humidity," according to the company's website.

Faux wood blinds are excellent choices for rooms that contain high moisture content, such as bathrooms and kitchens. Color selections include several variations of white and off-white, as well as oak wood tones, including a "sandblasted" look that reveals more of a wood grain.

Faux wood blinds are also an affordable alternative. Currently, Blinds Chalet is offering a special sale on Classic 2-inch and Privacy faux wood blinds that gives the buyer one free set for every three sets purchased.

These window coverings are versatile enough to outfit an office or a home in both contemporary and traditional décor. Accessories like decorative fabric tapes and cornice style valences can be added to personalize the look.
