Therefore, if you'd like to maximise the transparency of 'First Thaw' sheer roman blinds, choose one of the other fold styles that is possible to construct without lining. Refer to our Roman Shades Style Guide for further information. Bring color-balance: Counterbalance a color-saturated space with the calming presence of these white roman blinds. Opt for curtains: If you’re dressing windows wider than 96 inches, try First Thaw 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 First Thaw 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 First Thaw fabric by the yard to create any matching fabric accessory of your choice. The Nitty-Gritty (Made Pretty): Our roman shades arrive with all necessary hardware, so you can skip that last-minute store dash. We include cord lock anchors for child and pet safety, because style should never come at the cost of safety. Each roman shade at Sewn is handcrafted by skilled artisans from India who pour care, precision and decades of experience into every stitch.
