Not only curtains and curtains can give the windows a cozy look, and hide the room from the bright sun. Each season, the popularity of blinds is growing, both fabric and wooden. And manufacturers, trying to keep up with fashion trends and even dictate them, began to make mobile lames of different colors, and materials: from plastic to metal! But let’s talk about the most common.
Color ribbons.
Probably, our consumer to this day can not abandon traditional curtains, because even the blinds chooses fabric. Their serious plus is an extensive color scheme and not a small choice of patterns. You can even make a pattern to order, and when closing the panels, admire the mini-picture. In addition, fabric lamellas are quite accessible to the broad masses in terms of pricing policy. They are very often ordered both for decorating the office and for protection from sunlight houses and apartments.
Lamelian fabrics are smooth and rough, with perforated holes, dense and thin. In most cases, fabric blinds are produced by plastic. This material has plenty of advantages: strength, resistance to burnout, ease of care during cleaning and durability.
However, the consumer is different and some want to have a natural product in their house. For sophisticated customers in the assortment there are blinds of cotton, flax or other, even fabric impurities. But give a guarantee that they will not burn after the first cleaning and will not lose color over time – no one can. One way or another, and natural fabric can lose its shape and change the coloring.
However, you can choose fabrics with beautiful weaving – jacquard. Dense (and this is a good alternative and it is worth paying attention to it when buying) will cost an order of magnitude more expensive (even if it is non -woven blinds). After all, they will last longer and will not burn out much, deform.
The most important factor affecting the choice of fabric blinds is the use of lamellas in rooms with special fire safety requirements. In such cases, manufacturers offer fiberglass. If they light up (which does not happen!), then they will not smoke, but simply melt.
Magic of a tree.
A more expensive version of the blinds, but very beautiful and decorative – wooden lamellas. Durable and durable, they are safe for others, are easily mounted, simple in operation, and they protect from the sun in the same way as their relatives (tissue or plastic). And they also fit perfectly into various interiors.
Be calm when buying wooden blinds. They are made exclusively from high -quality breeds, most often it is maple, cork tree, cherry, bamboo, oak, Canadian linden. In factories, these materials are thoroughly dried, polished, and then treated with special varnish that does not contain harmful substances, and then laminated.
After all complex technical manipulations, lamellas are lost in weight, become lighter and more resistant to moisture. And most importantly – the appearance of the processed tree in the future is easy to maintain in excellent condition.
The color of the lamellas made of wood depends on the rocks from which they were produced. Other factors are affected by the shade: the age of the tree, the place and climate, where it grew, and the impacts exerted after processing. Accordingly, when buying wooden blinds, you need to immediately be interested in how the color will remain unchanged, and get instructions for the care of the lamellas.
Nevertheless, it is precisely such blinds that will make the room cozy, and keep their beauty for many years if you adhere to the rules of operation and cleaning.
