Is it time to update those old bedroom shades? Well before you do, be sure to take a look at the newest innovation from Hunter Douglas; Duette Architella Shades. These shades use a uniqe honeycomb design that has a cell within the cell. This multi cell design provides increased insulation values, and actually adds beauty to the shade. The extra layer of fabric and air space allows the light to filter through the face fabric even if there is a room darkening lining in the center, allowing the shade to remain three dimensional in appearance.

Country Woods®
Wood Blinds |
Wood is a renewable resource. Forests can be managed to constantly replenish and promote renewed growth. Hardwood trees, such as Basswood, Oak and Cherry, will automatically sprout new seedlings when the tree is cut down. The unwanted seedlings are then trimmed in order to provide plenty of room for the chosen seedlings to grow. This provides endless life to the forest. |
