There’s something about real wood blinds that sets them apart from composite or faux wood; and for many, it’s worth the extra cost to add the warmth of wood to a window treatment. Wood blinds add both form and function to any design decor and are a long-term investment worth considering.

You’ll find them sold in a variety of shades from tinted white to natural pine to deep ebony; the slats range in width from 1 3/8 inches to 2 3/8 inches. The more traditional wood blinds feature ladder tapes that bind the slats together in a color blending or contrasting with the shade of the wood slats.
