Natural Woven Shades In Washington
Natural Woven Wood & Bamboo Shades in Washington, IL

Our Solar Shield Blinds Natural Woven Shades, made from bamboo, jute, reeds and grasses, bring warmth and texture to that room, and they suit the older homes near the Square just as well.
Where It Fits In Washington
Where Natural Woven Shades Belong In Washington
Woven shades look at home in a house with a century of history and in one finished last year, so they fit nearly every street in Washington and Metamora.
- Kitchens And Breakfast NooksA woven shade over the sink takes the edge off all that hard surface, and we plan the placement so no shade hangs over a cooktop.
- Living Rooms In Older HomesNatural fibers sit well beside original wood floors and stained trim in the houses near downtown.
- Windows Facing The StreetA light filtering liner gives full privacy day and night, and it hides the cords and rings on the back of the shade from outside.
- Wide WindowsA wide window can take two shades under a shared headrail and valance, reading as one piece while each half raises separately.
Choosing A Liner
The weave sets the look, and the liner sets the privacy
Bamboo, jute, reed and grass each have their own color and texture, and because the fibers are natural, no two shades are exactly alike. Those small variations are part of the appeal, and they're why we bring real samples to your house instead of a photo.
Unlined, the shade filters the sun and leaves a soft view out, but it isn't private at night. A light filtering liner takes care of that, a room darkening liner goes further for a bedroom, and a fully functional liner lowers behind the weave on its own, so you use it only when you want it.
Edge binding adds a finished border, and the waterfall style lets the weave run over the front of the headrail in one flow. Your Design Specialist brings the samples to your Washington home so you can see them next to your floors and trim, and Natural Woven Shades go up 4 to 6 weeks after you order.

Straight Answers
Natural Woven Shades questions from Washington homeowners
Yes, if you want it dark or private. Without one, the weave lets light in and lets people see in after dark. A room darkening liner gets the room much darker, and a fully functional liner lets you lower it only at night and keep the open weave during the day.
Yes. Bamboo, jute, reeds and grasses are fast growing, renewable crops, and they take less energy to process than synthetic materials. Bamboo regrows in 3 to 5 years.
Not exactly. Natural fibers vary a little in color and weave from shade to shade, and that variation is part of the look rather than a defect.
Yes, away from the cooktop. Over the sink or a breakfast table is a good spot, and we keep the shade clear of any heat source when we plan the room.
Not if they're left alone. Constant rubbing can wear the edges, so we plan each shade to hang clear of furniture, and edge binding adds a protective border.
Yes. A classic woven shade has a valance across the front of the headrail, and the waterfall style moves that valance to the back so the weave runs over the top in one piece.
