Here’s what Window Blinds to get for your Beach House

-

There’s nothing more tranquil than a beach house with the sound of the waves, seagulls and don’t forget the amazing views!


However, you need to keep in mind that a house that is situated close to the ocean will need to have window blinds that are better suited for the environment. Not all blinds are the same, here are what window blinds you need to get for your beach house.

PVC Wood Blinds.

Not only do these blinds look great with their clean, classic aesthetic, but they are also incredibly durable and can stand up against the beach environment. PVC wood blinds are bound to last a long time and they won’t deteriorate over the years.


Fabric Blinds.

Fabric window blinds are refined and gentle in appearance compared to solid blinds. The great thing about fabric blinds is that they offer privacy and shade, but still allow in some filtered light and a wonderful view!


Bamboo Blinds.

One of the favourites for beach homes is bamboo window blinds. They have the beautiful richness of wood but are environmentally friendly and incredibly sturdy. Bamboo roller blinds and Venetian blinds look stunning plus they can stand up to all the elements.

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

If you want to transform the look of your living space then installing window treatments such as wooden blinds is a great idea!  However, when you've decided whether to choose wood blinds or faux wood blinds then you’ll need to take into account the room you’re installing them in and how big the windows are. 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.
