Honeycomb/Cellular Shades
Cellular shads (also called Honeycomb after the shape of the cells) are energy efficient and have the same type of exterior look. However, there is a major difference. Honeycomb shades have cells that provide even more insulation and protection from the weather outside. You can also choose between single or double cells, depending on how much insulation you want and how large of a window you’re covering.
Solar Sun Shades
Much like pleated and honeycomb shades, solar shades help block the harmful UV rays that often make it through other types of window shades. If you’re looking to reduce glare on your television or computer screen, solar shades are a fantastic option. You can reduce glare, but you don’t have to block your view to the outside. You really can have both. You can also choose between light filtering and blackout solar shades.
Mini Window Blinds
Made from recycled aluminum, you’re sure to love these mini blinds. Mini blinds don’t have to be ordinary any more. You have more color options these days, so you can have more control over your window coverings. Mini blinds are also great because they’re easy to clean and are extremely durable, which is an excellent choice if you have children.
