By Ana Zuravliova
Venetian blinds are celebrated around the world for their style, sophistication and charm, but did you know you can enjoy Venetian blinds in your home for less than you might expect? In today’s blog, we’ll be looking at some of the most affordable Venetian blinds and how you can use them to restyle your home without breaking the bank! Read on to learn all about Venetian blinds and some of our affordable favourites.
Why pick affordable Venetian blinds
Choosing affordable Venetian blinds can be a practical and stylish decision for several reasons. Firstly, their cost-effective nature allows homeowners to enhance the aesthetics of their living spaces without significant investment. Venetian blinds come in a variety of materials, such as wood, aluminium, or faux wood, offering budget-friendly options that cater to diverse design styles.
Moreover, these blinds are known for their versatility, providing effective light control and privacy. The adjustable slats enable precise management of sunlight, allowing users to create the desired ambiance in any room. The durability of affordable Venetian blinds ensures a long-lasting investment, as they are resistant to moisture and easy to maintain. Overall, opting for affordable Venetian blinds combines practicality, aesthetic appeal, and functionality, making them an attractive choice for those seeking a cost-efficient window treatment solution.
Affordable wooden Venetian blinds
Venetian blinds, as we outlined earlier, can be made using a range of materials but here we’re going to look at some of our favourite blinds made from wood and faux wood. Natural wooden blinds from Blinds Direct are made using the finest quality wood sourced from responsibly managed forests. While an excellent material, natural wood can warp and crack if exposed to excess moisture, but there is good news.
Faux wooden blinds capture the majesty of wooden Venetian blinds but won’t crack or warp when wet. This makes Faux wooden blinds ideal for bathroom and kitchen windows. While both wooden and faux wooden Venetian blinds can be expensive, there is a fabulous selection of products available for less than you might expect!
While less expensive than others, these wooden Venetian blinds are made to equally high standards and like their pricier counterparts, will arrive at your door with a five-year guarantee.
Affordable aluminium Venetian blinds
Aluminium Venetian blinds are also available in a selection of price points. Like their wooden counterparts, aluminium Venetian blinds are elegant and extremely functional, but they add something of a more modern finish to a room.
These Venetian blinds are crafted with high quality aluminium which is tough against moisture and wear and tear. Each blind is precisely cut and made to measure, ensuring both a seamless fit and enhanced beauty for your home.
The surface layer of the metal is protected by aluminium oxide, therefore your blinds won’t rust. This makes them perfect for rooms where they may get wet – bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms for instance. Despite its lightweight, aluminium is also durable and flexible, making it a great investment without compromising on style. Like wooden blinds, Aluminium Venetian blinds are made here in the UK and are delivered with a five year guarantee. These are our three favourite aluminium Venetian blinds.
Venetian blinds are always a wise investment, especially when you know they’re guaranteed to last for at least five years. With plenty of budget friendly options to consider in a selection of colours and finishes, you’ll be able to find the ideal Venetian blinds for your home whatever the budget.
