How to choose the right color horizontal blind for your home

Horizontal blinds are wood or faux wood blinds with horizontal slats that are controlled by a cord. These blinds are classic, versatile and go with anything. Horizontal blinds are durable and are an affordable alternative to paying a high price for wood blinds.  

Horizontal blinds vary in color and a variety of textures and finishes.  

Selecting the most suitable color for your blinds can be a strenuous choice. Zebra Blinds offers a large selection of pleasing options to add style and functionality to your space. 

There are options to decide on when it comes to selecting your perfect blinds. One of the main components to consider is whether to choose a neutral or daring color. Choosing a daring color can create a pop of color and create a statement in a room. 

Creating accent colors

Using your blinds as an accent color can liven up a room. 

One of the ways in which this can be done is by using ladder tape. There are different options of color accents that can be coordinated with your horizontal window blinds. This decorative option adds style and can add a pleasing look to any room.

Another great way to create an accent within a room is by matching your blind color to a carpet or another object that you would like to drawing attention to. Adding a pop of color or accent color through horizontal blinds in your space can create a focal point for a visually pleasing effect.

Matching your blinds to nearby colors

Choosing a neutral color can make your blinds blend in with your space. When selecting a color for your horizontal shades, one of the options for a blending effect is to match your horizontal shades to the color of your walls and molding.

Choosing a color that is similar to that of your space will help your blinds blend in. It is recommended to select shades for your horizontal venetian blinds that are slightly lighter than the color of your wall. Paying attention to under tones within wall color can be helpful during this process. 

Choosing colors to brighten or darken a room

Selecting darker shades for your blinds can create a dimming or blackout effect in  room. This is a great option for bedrooms or even office spaces. Colors such as dark grey and black are ideal for blacking out a room. Another popular option is navy blue. 

Choosing a light or dark color for your horizontal blinds can also brighten up a space. Lighter shades such as white or beige can will add light to your room.
