Kitchen Window Coverings
Finding the right window coverings for your kitchen can add style to your space. But kitchens are often a challenging area to decorate because they require special consideration. When it comes to choosing the perfect window coverings for your kitchen, you should consider where your blinds or shades will be located and how they will be used.WINDOW COVERINGS ABOVE THE SINK
The kitchen windows located above the sink will need special attention. Splashing water and steam can cause warping and damage in blinds made of real wood. Fortunately, faux wood blinds and solar shades are durable alternatives. Faux wood blinds have the benefit of being moisture-resistant and can be cleaned without fear of water damage. Faux wood blinds also have the look of real wood at a much lower cost. Solar shades are another attractive option, as they are water-resistant and antimicrobial, ensuring your window coverings stay clean of mold and germs.
SHADES TO MAXIMIZE NATURAL LIGHT
If there is only one window in your kitchen, it’s important to keep it as open as possible to maintain natural light coming into the room. Window coverings that are lightweight are ideal. If your kitchen being visible from the outside is not a concern, sheer shades are a very attractive option. Sheer shades will give your windows a sophisticated appearance without blocking all of that beautiful natural light.
SHADES THAT ARE EASY TO WIPE CLEAN
When shopping for window shades for the kitchen, you will also want something that is easy to keep clean. Composite wood shutters offer all the style and elegance of real wood, but their medium density fibre construction make them resistant to moisture, so they won't warp or bend over time. They're durable and stylish and they don't stain. Simply wipe clean with a damp microfibre cloth once a week to keep them looking their best.
