Wood Shades Bamboo - Provenance Mindanao Calamata WWMN880
Wooden window shades and blinds are an effective and natural means of keeping
out sunshine; they can also look very attractive if you have wooden décor in the room, for example
a bamboo bathroom theme with a bamboo shower curtain, and maybe bamboo over toilet storage as
well as bamboo bathroom area rug and other accessories. Because wood does not conduct heat well,
then wooden shades are good for keeping heat out in the summer and in during the winter.
For Asian themed rooms, whether a bathroom or elsewhere in the home, bamboo
window shades make an excellent choice; they look warm, yet keep rooms cool in hot weather.
Not only that, bamboo is a wood that is easy to cultivate in an eco-friendly way, as it grows
so quickly, reaching maturity in 5 years or so. It is probably the easiest sustainable forestry
you can find. Bamboo is also flexible in its use for substantial furniture like an over the
toilet cabinet, or small accessories like a bamboo shower caddy, and even fine almost fabric
like items like a bamboo shower curtain.
Although you may have trouble finding bamboo window shades in a nearby
store, you can certainly find them online. If you live in a city you will probably find them
more easily in the local stores than away from cities, especially those with a large Asian population.
Online, there are some good choices using the natural base material of bamboo, and in many size
choices such as 23 x 72 inches, 98 x 33 inches, 74 inches by 34.25 inches plus many more sizes
for common window dimensions.
One modestly priced example is the Bali Natural Bamboo Roman Shade length
74 inch from Top Blinds. This costs under $40 and has a 7 inch valence and side returns. The
Roman shade style is for gently filtering light, so is not suitable as a privacy shade if you
are, or could be, overlooked. Each shade is supplied with a Retro-fit kit recommended by the
CPSC.
Another alternative would be the Blinds Hunter Douglas Woven Wood Shades
Bamboo - Provenance Mindanao Calamata WWMN880 priced just above $90. Made from real natural
bamboo, these bamboo window shades are well worth a look. They have 4 delightful options in
designs and color, so finding the right one for you should be an enjoyable process.
