Roman Blinds
Roman Blinds are a great alternative to curtains, offering an elegant, simpler look, and there is a huge variety of fabrics to choose from.
A Roman Blind is one that is made from fabric that draws up into neat pleats. The blinds are made by inserting dowels or rods into the back of a fabric panel. The rods are connected to cords, when the blind is lifted the cords pull the rods together forcing the blind to fold into pleats.
The beauty of Roman Blinds is you can create them in any fabric to coordinate with your colour scheme, you can also add contrast borders and trims if desired. Roman Blinds can be made with different types of lining, including black-out lining.
