Tie a whole room together by matching your decor with Veneta™ faux wood blinds.

Don’t we envy homes in style magazines, on TV, and on Instagram? “Picture perfect” is actually easy to achieve when elements in a room work together. Use the right window treatments to complement flooring, furniture, or cabinet and create a cohesive design without breaking the bank.

Veneta™ faux wood blinds are available in 16 colors, so it won’t matter what home color palette you already have. Lean into the “wood” part of “faux wood” blinds. Warm and welcoming tones beautifully match the accents of furniture and cabinets. Woodgrain patterns and natural colors help hardwood floors to shine.

You can’t go wrong with faux wood blinds: they excel in any room and adapt to any style. Light and neutral colors can take your décor to another level. Take a look at how Cottage White in Veneta™ faux wood blinds paired with similar floors create a welcoming kitchen.

Or see the warmth of Golden Pecan faux wood blinds in matching furniture and floors. This is a simple and practical way to make a room that feels both soothing and spacious at once. A thoughtfully chosen combination of natural wood colors can make a workspace look tidier, brighten up your mood, and boost your productivity.

The right interior design can have a real effect on your well-being. By taking care and finding the window coverings to match to your décor, you create a relaxing symmetry, contributing to a positive space.

Veneta™ cellular shades offer insulation against the heat. Install relief and relaxation for your home during a hot summer.

Summer days are will be here soon. Prepare for the upcoming hot days.

We have people who add color to their homes by having cellular shades which can brighten up any room as these window coverings also come in bright and bold fabrics with patterns. But these dreamy colors that shout summer aren’t the only reason these shades are so popular.

Cellular shades have the best insulation properties in any window coverings you can buy – they can keep a home comfortable all year round. According to the Department of Energy, about 76% of sunlight that falls on standard double-pane windows enters a home to generate heat.

How do cellular shades help? The signature pleats create honeycomb chambers. These trap pockets of air and insulate the window, and you’re able to reflect sunlight and block heat.

To add to their appeal, you can operate Veneta™ cellular shades to your liking. Pull down a Top-Down/Bottom-Up shade just enough to let the summer sun soak a home without losing privacy. Keep that sun out when it comes up too early with ClearFit™. And of course, if you want the quick way to do all this – get the motorization feature and operate the shades from the comfort of your lounging chair.

Customize your shades and see even more difference in energy savings. Choose a double-cell shade, which is more energy efficient. A blackout fabric can also add a little extra protection while allowing you to sleep in as the sun will not be able to creep into your bedroom.

All you have to do is install shades and let them do the work. Voila! Your home is more eco-friendly, and you save on the energy bills that go up in the peak of summer.

Did we mention that the shades do just as good of a job protecting your home in winter? The insulation makes cellular shades a perfect choice year-round for beating the heat and the cold.

White has been the king of going with everything. Anytime you talk about needing a neutral color, you find swatches upon swatches of white tones. Designers have been using it as their go-to for years.

We won’t say white isn’t fine. White puts a certain gleam into the right room that needs it. It’s an easy choice. But sometimes you need more excitement than another white (or off-white), so you look in the catalog and take another, longer look.

Gray is the new white.

Gray is the neutral choice of the moment. It comes in just as many choices as your whites and off-whites. Put it with everything, and do it in style. Gray can be subtle. It can be bold. It fits any décor and works as a canvas that other colors can pop out against.

Gray comes with so many different color undertones – which have ways of making the gray go perfectly with the right décor.

Gray with warm undertones will bubble up warm memories, old photographs and maple wood-hewn antiques. In the case of cooler undertones – well, haven’t you ever wanted to picture your home as a castle high in some misty mountains? (Maybe we’re stretching it, but you have pictured that, right?) A little blue might underline the other blues in your home. Picking the right undertone can make every other color pop.

And another quick tip: a cool-toned gray often complements the richer warmer tones of wooden furniture! Replacing furniture can be expensive, but a few colorful changes to a room can modernize your décor without a ton of cost.

And if you have a look, every type of window treatment at Veneta™ has a perfect gray in its collections waiting for a home. Have a look at a few:

Maybe you’re looking for an upgrade for your windows – a valuable deal that will last years? Then look to the staying power of Veneta™ shutters. Every detail is designed to make these easy to install yet last forever, even with heavy use.

The colors won’t be fading or yellowing (guaranteed!). And you’ll find them in six colors, including some of our personal favorites: Castle Rock and, you guessed it, Gray.

Faux wood blinds are classics for good reason. Faux wood blinds are all about practicality – they’re among the easiest treatments to maintain and affordable. Veneta™ blinds come full of features to keep prying eyes and extra light out of your home.

They’re also easy to match with everything – but that doesn’t mean they won’t wow guests with the right gray. Pick the right slat patterns in Gray, Weathered Oak, Stone Gray, Pebble, Misty Sky, and more for that cabin retreat in the woods or castle of your dreams.

You’ll find gray among every collection of swatches, really. It’s a color every blind and shade needs to be able to come in, because it looks that good in any of them. Whether you want affordable accents to the right décor or centerpieces, you can find the perfect neutral tone in the treatment you choose.

Gray is the new king of going with everything. Gray is the new white.

The colors of 2020 together paint a coastal picture. The right window treatment, like Veneta™ BelleVue™ Shades, can bring out the sandy shores and calming coast in your home with color and functionality.

Does it take a new year to tell us what can be a great color for home décor? Pantone’s Color of the 2020 is Classic Blue, and they aren’t the only kingmaker of yearly colors. Behr crowned Back To Nature, a sage green that does exactly what the name suggests; Sherwin Williams picked Naval, a deeper blue, as its 2020 color; and Benjamin Moore went with First Light, evoking a sunrise creeping across the breakfast nook.

While you might disagree with any one of these colorful opinions, all these blues, greens, and sunny pinks together suggest a larger trend. So how about we call for a color palette of the year? One that stretches up from the sugar sands of southern California to the sounds and pines of the Pacific Northwest, and from craggy Maine down east to the tropical Keys. Across the shores, where dunes rise and beaches fill with driftwood, and morning sun peeks out over the horizon at the coastal oaks and palm forests.

Coastal design is in, and when you’re looking for the right choices to suit your own personal coast, you’ll find a great complement for that palette in BelleVue™ shades.

These shades fit the airy feel and natural colors that coastal design calls for. The soft fabrics evoke warm sands and sun-bleached driftwood. Seven paired choices of fabrics with tapes that run down the center of the shade that add deeper, complementary colors that accent and pop, while never bucking the natural seaside color scheme.

The shades are functionally a good fit for a coastal feel too. When closed, the fabric of BelleVue™ shades lies flat for a flowing look (think Roman shade folds). Then the fabric slats roll up, like blinds, to open up the house and let that natural First Light paint the inside of your home. Then one pull of the shade and it cascades back down easily.

The coastal design asks for a breezy style, and open or closed, BelleVue™ shades add the right color and form. So maybe you’re not living in earshot of crashing shores, but you can feel it in your living room every time you walk in.
