Faux Wood Blinds

Faux wood blinds are becoming all the rage these days for several reasons but the two most important ones are that you get the look or real wood blinds and you get them at a fraction of the cost. They come in a variety of sizes and colors and you can get them in just about any stain that you would a real wood blind. The best part is that they are perfect for the bathroom since they are faux and not real. This allows them to take in all the humidity and accidental splashes and still maintain it’s versatility and structure. They will not warp, fade or corrode due to them getting accidentally wet.

Faux wood window blinds can turn your bathroom into a luxurious getaway. Here’s what you’ll get if you go with these blinds for your bathroom. You’ll get a low maintenance blind as they are super easy to clean. They are very easy to operate and you’ll find that most of them come with the same or very comparable mechanisms of operation that the more expensive wood blinds do. You’ll feel safe in your bathroom with the privacy that they afford. And you’ll really be able to control the amount of light coming into the room with a simple tug or twist of the cord or wand. Not only that, you’ll be getting an excellent value versus the much more expensive wood blinds. Here’s a little comparison for you, the 2″ Express Faux Wood blind from Just Blinds is going for $47.00 right now while the 2″ Express Wood blind sales for about $67.00 for starters.

Probably the most popular style is the 2″ faux wood blinds. These blinds sport faux wood slats that are two inches wide. The wider slats really make the whole place feel a bit more regal and formal, but you’ll still be able to relax in style in your bathtub knowing that when they are closed, nobody will be able to see in. I really like the more “woody” looking finishes. You can get these 2″ blinds in most wood colors featuring oak, maple, pecan, chestnut and mahogany. The mahogany would work really well in a richer, deeper colored bathroom scheme. But if your color scheme is a bit lighter you may want to go with the oak or maple. If the actual wood look is not that appealing, you can still get these in a ton of other colors and textures like smooth or embossed. Probably the more prominent colors that you’ll see in these are the alabaster and antique white.

If you are shying away from a formal looking bathroom but still want the elegance, you can pick up some 1″ faux wood blinds. These are the same as the 2″ models except that the slats are a bit smaller on these wood mini blinds. Because they have smaller slats, you’ll get a much more traditional look in your bathroom decor. These also come in the previous stains and colors mentioned above with the 2″ models. The great thing about these blinds is that they’ll fit in those smaller, more shallow depth bathroom windows. So if you don’t have a lot of room to work with depth wise, these may be the perfect choice for you.

If you have large glass windows or sliding doors exiting the bathroom you might want to consider faux wood vertical blinds. Although for most homes this will never be needed, but if they are, these are a classic way to cover them up. However, you are more likely to use these outside the bathroom than in it.

All in all, if you go with faux wood mini blinds in your bathroom you will be getting a very natural appearance. They bring about a really warm feel and inviting style and will go with practically any decor that you may already have. They are just as secure as traditional blinds and most of them offer enhanced privacy protection from prying eyes. You will be able to safely and easily add pizazz and flair to your bathroom no matter what as they come in so many different styles and colors and are super easy to install.
