Faux Window Treatments, Fashionable and Budget-friendly
Faux materials are the way to go. These man-made materials are not only cost-effective, but oftentimes, they are more reliable than window treatment from authentic materials. For example, faux wood floors do not rot or bow like real wood. Likewise, with engineered quarts, faux materials can withstand heat and acidic foods better than marble, which are the latest trends in kitchens are faux leather counters. More and more, homeowners are turning away from the streamlined, modern, cold contemporary look and toward a look that provides warmth, comfort, and a place to rest from our daily chaos. With the changing styles, designers are selecting items appear more artisan while on a budget, such as faux wood ceiling beams. Designers also suggest:
- Hybrid Shutters. NewStyle® hybrid shutters from Hunter Douglas provide the perfect “faux” solution. Not only do they have the great style of wood, but they also have the strength and stability of advanced modern-day materials. These shutters are warp- and bow-resistant, making them perfect for any window. Bring more comfort into your home by considering warm colors such as Toasted Honey, Warm Amber, English Saddle, or Urban Grey. These shutters have three louver sizes: 2-1/2″, 3-1/2″, and 4-1/2” and as with all Hunter Douglas window treatments, come with a lifetime guarantee.
- Faux Wood Blinds. When it comes to new, warm window treatments, you can still watch your budget with Hunter Douglas EverWood® Alternative Wood Blinds.
