  Full Grain vs Wood Stains

 

Full Grain vs Wood Stains

Wood blinds represent the style and elegance of old fashioned shutters and offer every homeowner the opportunity to incorporate the warmth of real wood into their window treatments. Furthermore, modern processes have given homeowners an even greater choice in wood grains and stains, giving them an almost overwhelming selection of beautiful wood blinds.

Colors and stains are very personal and need to be chosen based on individual décor. If you know the exact stain color for your room, you may want to choose a stained hardwood blind that can be tailored to match your needs or your existing wood grains. Stained wood blinds also come in a variety of colors to match any room in your home.

Full grain woods, like maple, cherry, or walnut, can also be a perfect choice for those interested in matching existing cabinets, wooden beds or floors. These full grain blinds are sealed and protected, not stained or colored, and offer a rich subtle warmth to every home.

Keep in mind that stained wood blinds are often less expensive than full grain, but both offer the warmth and ambiance that only real wood can provide.
