roman-shades-11

Roman shades are the perfect window covering to soften up a room. Roman shades can be made from many fabrics and woven wood materials. They can be cordless and have the top down bottom up feature added to them like most window shades. Roman shades can come hobbled like the above picture or you can purchase them as flat roman shades. Flat roman shades cost about 40% less than hobbled roman shades because hobbled romans require twice the amount of fabric to make as the flat roman shades do. There are thousands of fabrics to choose from when selecting the right roman shades. Get in touch with Affordable Blinds and More of Wilmington, NC to schedule an appointment!
