How Bamboo Roman Blinds Will Make Your House Prettier

Many of us today are leaning towards using bamboo roman blinds. And the reason why they use it? It’s pretty basic. They claim it’s fun to work with them in prettying up the windows.

Another thing that people particularly love about it is that maintaining these bamboo roman window coverings is almost hassle-free. You need not worry about messing up your house since cleaning them just needs some wiping.

Bamboo roman window treatments are available in different colors and shades so you know you have tons of options that can deliver to your discriminating taste and so that you are guaranteed that you’re using window treatments that will mix well with the rest of your house décor.

Roman blinds that are composed of bamboo can be bought in myriads of styles, from small matchstick style to basic flat blinds that are pretty much the same with the traditional blinds. But before you choose any style or color, try making use of sheets or cloth that are of the same color in order to help you imagine or give you even a slight idea how the blinds will look when put up on your windows.

If you want to give your bamboo window blinds that elegant feel, put on some bamboo valance and tie the edges with a pretty cloth to get that more sophisticated feel.

Bamboo roman blinds are popular for the fact that they are lightweight and installing them is actually so easy you can do it yourself. Since these woman blinds are made out of bamboo, it allows some sunlight to enter a little bit since complete blocking of the sunlight is not very healthy.

Nevertheless, if you want total light control or complete blackout during the daytime, you can put on some thick and heavy curtains at the back of the bamboo blinds.

With some creativity, you can make a very attractive home space. If you want to give oomph to your house and want to give it a healthy look along with a trouble-free maintenance, opt for bamboo roman blinds.

Q&A: What has happened to fabrics lately? Know where I can find some pretty and sophisticated shower curtains?

Question by CassandraM: What has happened to fabrics lately? Know where I can find some pretty and sophisticated shower curtains?
I’ve been shopping for both window treatments and shower curtains lately….what has happened? Even old reliables, like JC Penneys, look like they either belong in a brothel or a bottom of the barrel discount house. I’m not normally that picky of a person, but it’s hard to believe I can’t find a pretty floral print – but I COULD buy fuzzy, hot pink drapes with beads down the middle. I don’t get it.

Best answer:

Answer by Ginger
Linens ‘n Things or Bed Bath & Beyond have rather boring fabrics, but go to Stein Mart for really nice ones.

If you don’t have one in your area just go to a fabric store or Calico Corners for yardage in any floral you choose. You don’t even need a pattern to run up a few seams.

It takes only 4.5 yards to make a balloon curtain for your 36″ windows.
