Varieties of Roman Shades

Aug 11 2010

There are a plethora of types of materials that make up roman window shades. These window treatments are best known for their opulent feel
and the touch of elegance and class they bring to a home. They make any room
look good and don't make it feel dated. They help reduce energy bills
with their energy-efficient qualities. They also block out almost all UV
rays. Take a look at some of the most enjoyed varieties of these
blinds.


1. Light Filtering Roman Shades. These shades are designed
to offer privacy while letting light in. Polyester is the primary
material used. There are varieties available that are both soil and dust-resistant. It's a great way to bring a classic look to a child's
bedroom or play area without having to worry about them getting ruined.
There are cordless versions available and a variety of colors to choose
from.


2. Blackout Roman Shades. Best suited for home theater
rooms, these blinds look good while providing a dark, secluded
atmosphere. They are great if you have problems sleeping because of the
sun coming in through the windows, or if you want to watch a movie
without glare, or work from home and need a dark space to be creative.


3. Woven Wood Roman Shades. These blinds are pretty cool. They have the
feel of the ocean, the beach, and palm trees swaying. Synthetic brands
avoid warping and maintain their color longer than real woven wood
blinds or shades. They look as if branches were woven together and bring
a delicate look to a room. These also come in cordless versions.


4. Textured Linen Roman Shades. Linen is a fabric associated with summer.
It's breezy and soft. These help open up French doors or large windows.
They also work to bring a design element to smaller windows.


5.Satin Roman Shades. Satin just looks good. It works in bedrooms, living
rooms, and studies. It can help enhance the colors in the furniture or
bed linens. It can complement mahogany and marble. These window
treatments come in a variety of colors as rich as their material.


Roman shades are generally manufactured with cords. Therefore, if you have
small children or pets, you may want to request a cordless version. Most
manufacturers offer a cordless variety now, and if not, retrofit kits are
available to make blinds safe. Discounts can be had on brands when you
order from a major online retailer. Because they don't pay for rental
space and they generally buy in bulk, they get savings they can pass on
to you.


As new materials are developed, you can be sure the best
of them will be incorporated into Roman Shades. These blinds never go
out of style. They look great and increase the resale value of a home.
They insulate and block UV rays. There's no reason not to buy some Roman
Shades today.
