There is nothing quite like curling up on the couch with a hot chocolate in the colder months and feeling cosy. However, the last thing you want is to have to unwind in a freezing space when you’ve just enjoyed a long walk with the dog or have returned from a shopping trip. So, in winter, how do you keep your home warm?
Your choice of blinds and curtains can make a huge difference.
Here at Redditch blinds, we can help you stay toasty when it’s cold outside!
5 ways to keep your home warm in winter from Redditch blinds
1. Made to measure blinds
Whatever your choice of blinds, to help insulate your house, it is important that they suit well. Made to measure blinds are designed to fit your windows and are more effective than shelf blinds, which are one-size-fits-all, to keep out draughts.
Even a simple well-fitting blind will help minimise heat loss; roller blinds, for example, prevent 21% of your rooms from escaping heat. With blinds designed to measure, you have more options. To help keep your home warm in winter, for instance, you can opt for thermal blinds.
At Redditch blinds, in our Attleborough workshop, your blinds will be made to your exact specifications. When we measure up and show you fabric samples, it all starts with a home appointment.
2. Curtains
We do blinds of all kinds and curtains at Redditch Blinds, too! As the nights get colder, there is nothing like pulling the curtains to make you feel cosy and cosy. Curtains insulate well and on winter nights, they can certainly help keep the draughts out. However, whatever the time of year, curtains work, adding a chic touch to any home decor.
Curtains to look more traditional and may therefore appeal more than modern style blinds to certain individuals. The look, of course, very much depends on your fabric preference. At Redditch Blinds, we partner with leading manufacturers to offer you a wide range of high-quality fabrics, including Clarke & Clarke, Reputation, ILIV and Voyage. In our Redditch Showrooms or during a home appointment, you can view our collection of gorgeous designs.
3. Roman blinds
Roman blinds add an elegant touch to a room and function in living rooms and bedrooms especially well. Made from furniture and curtain fabric, with Redditch blinds, you have a wide range of designs and colours. In white, brown or chrome, you can choose from chain controlled mechanisms.
Try combining Roman blinds with curtains to double the comfort.
Not sure if your home will match the Roman blinds? During a home consultation, a Redditch Blindsexpert may advise. We do all the measuring and fitting of your blinds and curtains, leaving you free with a cup of tea to put your feet up! What’s more, a five-year warranty comes with all our goods.
4. Colours
Some colours will make us feel warmer than others, there is no doubt. A space is lit up by bright colours, including red, yellow and orange. Dream also of burnished russet and copper autumn leaves. Whereas deep tones like grey, brown and purple can generate a soothing feeling of luxury. Not sure about which colour to go for? The team at Redditch Blinds will help you get creative at home with paint. To find out more, send us a call on 01603 334085 or schedule a home appointment.
5. Texture
Layering clothes is a must if in winter you want to keep warm. It can be said the same for our houses. You can create a cosy haven by mixing various fabrics and textures in your home décor. In a textured pattern or curtains in a rich velvet type fabric, try blinds.
We also make soft furniture here at Redditch blinds, so you can create the full look of your winter home from the curtains to the cushions.
