HomeSewn Wisdom: Consider the European relaxed fold style: Complement the opulence of 'Burlap' with the scalloped bottom of the European relaxed fold style. Its swag bottom and curved folds offer a decorative touch that is fitting for extravagantly detailed traditional maximalist decor styles. Avoid velvet shades in humid/ wet areas: Since velvet is thick and slow to dry, avoid velvet roman blinds in wet zones such as kitchens, bathrooms and laundry rooms where you want to optimise your window's capacity to bring in light and air. Opt for curtains: If you’re dressing windows wider than 96 inches, try Burlap curtains as a stylish alternative to roman shades. Drapery’s generous dimensions and flowy trails are particularly well suited to wider spans, creating a balanced and refined look. Start with a sample: Screens may lie; swatches don’t. Since colors in images can vary on different screens, ordering a sample of Burlap is highly advisable. This will allow you to see the colors upclose, and check how the fabric feels to the touch. Complement with matching accessories: For a custom designer look, coordinate your roman shades with other textile accessories in the room. Order matching runners, table covers or cushion covers from us, or buy Burlap fabric by the yard to create any matching fabric accessory of your choice.

We include cord lock anchors for child and pet safety, because style should never come at the cost of safety.
