Hand Painting Venetian Blinds
If you are just trying to make a truly unique fashion statement, then you should consider hand painting your Venetian blinds. You can choose to show off your individuality and your craftier side by painting the blind to show an image once it is closed. A majority of us can’t find anything uglier or messier than blinds that hang crooked. If your blinds are hung crooked, then the strings won’t properly act as pulleys. If you are going for the retro look, it may be better to consider using the anodized aluminum or painted silver blinds. These types of blinds tend to collect less dirt and dust and will help complete the look better with your retro room. Most manufacturers are now creating Venetian blinds in different colors and textures. The boring blinds of the 90s can be found as institutional window treatments. In the past, when decorating an office, people would have chosen white or black blinds to go with the wood decor. Now, you can choose from shades of olive, burgundy, or even brown. If your office has more of a sleeker look, you can even choose a Venetian blind in cherry red or celadon color. Even though Venetian blinds can be considered outdated, they can easily be jazzed up with drapes or sheers. If you are re-decorating a room that it may be hard to find blinds for, such as a boxed shape window or a small window, you may be able to choose the older style mini blinds in various vibrant colors.
