Window shades and blinds are an integral part of your home décor and they not only add aesthetic value to your home, but are also hugely functional. They are easier to operate, clean and maintain than regular fabric curtains. They also offer dimmed or diffused lighting which can fill your rooms with a warm glow and not harsh light. They come in horizontal or vertical shadings, and can be rolled up or pushed to the sides like regular curtains. Whether you choose horizontal or vertical shadings, they offer semi-sheer, translucent and light-dimming functions just like regular curtains.
