ENHANCE YOUR HOME’S STYLE WITH CUSTOM SHUTTERS FROM BUDGET BLINDS

One of the most energy efficient and beautiful products you can buy for your windows! No other window treatments are more steeped in history than window shutters. Their style and decorative appeal has become synonymous with high home fashion. Modern shutters are a new age American classic and can be utilized beautifully in any type of home style; whether your home is modern, traditional, or contemporary, there are shutters that are perfect for any style décor.

We have one of the best shutter installers in the Kansas City area! Here are some recent shutter installs from Lee's Summit, Overland Park and surrounding areas -

Shutters offer the best in light control, privacy or protection against the elements, and when you need to make a statement, window shutters can make both subtle and powerful statements all at once. Their clean lines and rich textures frame your outside view beautifully and add an aura of refinement to any room. Shutters are available in a wide assortment of frames, louver and slat sizes, and specialty shapes including arched and round styles that can make every window in your home unique to its décor.

 Shutters can be customized in many different ways. They can fold-up accordion style to one side of the window, they can be made to slide out of the way and stack on the side of the window, and they can be made traditionally, on hinges that swing inward. Window Shutters have garnered a reputation of timeless beauty over the years because many interior designers praise their functional and streamlined design and boast that the shutter complements most any room configuration. However they may have gained their reputation – shutters are here to stay.

Call one of our highly trained design consultants today to schedule a FREE In-Home Consultation to see our shutters for yourself!

Budget Blinds Fabulous Faux Wood Blinds Increase Home Value and Sales Appeal on Buying and Selling with the Property Brothers

An all new Buying and Selling with the Property Brothers premiered in the U.S. on September 3rd on HGTV.  The new season of this top-rated home improvement series was filmed in the Atlanta, Georgia area and 10 episodes will feature Budget Blinds' custom window treatments, including fabulous, versatile faux wood blinds.

The Property Brothers are twins, Jonathan and Drew Scot, and they've been called the "dynamic duo of real estate."  Jonathan is a licensed contractor, renovating the current homes to meet top-dollar market standards for selling. Drew is a real estate expert, working with each family to find and secure the ideal new home to accommodate their needs and budget.

Budget Blinds brings over 20 years of expertise in creative design and installation to this exciting collaboration, as well as one of the widest selections of shutters, blinds, draperies and window shades in North America.

One of the most common observations by the brothers about the homes going up for sale is "lackluster unfinished interiors." Buyers need to be inspired when they are looking at houses, excited by the possibilities if they are going to pay asking price for a home. Beautiful window treatments greatly enhance a room's allure by giving it a polished finish and buyers can begin to imagine their own furnishings in the home.

Budget Blinds' faux wood blinds are the ideal complement to any room. Available in a variety of finishes from white to rich wood grains, with smooth or textured finishes, they can match any décor. Faux wood blinds have the beauty of wood blinds with the added durability of composite blinds. They are highly moisture-resistant, making them the perfect choice for areas like kitchens, laundry rooms and bathrooms, or in any humid climate. Other valuable features include:

• Won't crack, chip, peel, or yellow over time
• Two sizes: 2" or 2.5" slats depending on your style preference
• Blinds can be motorized for ease of use and safety for children and pets
• Compatible with a wide range of fabric valances or draperies
• Less expensive than real wood blinds

Budget Blinds' faux wood blinds can be customized for any room and are available in a variety of colors and textures.

Whether you want to increase your home's value and sales appeal or you just want to banish the "lackluster interiors" of your rooms, your local Budget Blinds Style Consultant can help. It doesn't matter if your personal taste is formal, casual or eclectic, your Style Consultant can bring samples, swatches and style guides right into your living room to help you design window treatments that are truly you.
