What are the right blinds for your Kitchen?

-

Whether you’re renovating your entire home or just refreshing your kitchen, you’ll want window blinds that not only stand out, but are also the best suited for the job.

Years of cooking splatters can make your kitchen area in need of a serious overhaul, so a new set of window blinds can really uplift and transform the space.

But what window blinds should you choose?

If your windows are close to the sink or stove, all the steam, splashes, sauces and sprays can really damage your blinds and give mould a place to grow. You’ll need a set of window blinds that can hold up against water and steam and be easily wiped down at the end of the day.

- PVC Wood Blinds

Sleek and modern, these blinds are made from PVC so they’re waterproof and will never warp, no matter how wet they get. PVC wood blinds are easy to clean and come in a range of colors and shades.


- Aluminium Venetian Blinds

A favourite for kitchens, these blinds have adjustable slats for easy control of light as well as privacy. They’re light, reliable, durable, 100% waterproof and so, so easy to clean! Not only that, but they come in a range of colours and shades.


- Waterproof Roller Blinds

These blinds are a great choice when it comes to practicality. A tight weave of materials makes them waterproof and they can easily be wiped clean, they can also blackout the room for complete privacy and shading from light.


- Waterproof Vertical Blinds

These window blinds are really the top choice for your kitchen because of their practicality and versatility. Made from the same fabric as waterproof roller blinds, they are reliable, hardwearing, sleek and contemporary.


Finding the right window blinds that just really work for your kitchen is key. Practicality is just as important as them looking great, so finding that balance is vital!

How to clean your mini blinds without taking them down

Clean mini blinds without taking them down to avoid leaving windows uncovered. Blinds collect dust, insect debris and stains from spills and splatters. Window coverings and pull strings can also get discoloured over time. Even routine house cleaning like dusting and window washing can soil the blinds. If they’re taken down to be washed in a tub or sprayed outdoors, they have to dry before going back over the window. Step 1. Open the blinds and let them down all the way. Pull the bottom out from the windowsill and let it fall to expose all the slats. Step 2. Vacuum the loose dust of the slats. Use a brush attachment on the end of the hose and vacuum as much dirt off the tops and bottoms of the slats as possible. Step 3. Pour an ounce of antibacterial soap into a bucket with half a gallon of warm water. Slid the cloth around the slat and slide it from side to side. Do this with each and every one. Do not forget to clean the pull strings as well. The bleach and wat

The difference between these two types of blinds is the material they are made from. Wooden blinds are made out of real wood and come in a range of different stains as well as stains.

On the other hand, faux wood blinds are made out of composite PVC and come in a range of different colours, paints, and stains. If you choose a stained look for your faux wooden blinds then it’ll have a more realistic wood look. If you want to install wooden blinds in your bathroom t

Having a comfortable working environment is vital when it comes to productivity. There are many things that can contribute, and one of them is how much sunlight is shining into the room. Here’s how blinds can increase productivity in the workplace….. Reduce Sun & Glare There is nothing worse than having the sound shining in your eyes when you’re trying to work.
