Picking The Right Wood Tones
Glance around your living room, dining room or bedroom and notice the type of wood you see including things like your furniture, flooring, art frames and wall trim. Popular types include maple, oak, walnut, birch, cherry, poplar and many others. The wood that you incorporate into your favorite spaces may be found in multiple rooms in your home, reflecting specific hues and shades. Your decor is made up of so many elements and the inclusion of wood for its richness and natural beauty can add depth to your home. When considering new window solutions made of wood, how should you decide which tones to pick? We can help you make the right choice when pondering purchasing Custom Wood Blinds, from Montclair to Nutley.
There are two schools of design thought. One is to survey the room you’re working in and opt to aim for uniformity. This is especially easy if you’re starting out in a new home, if you’re renovating the space from scratch or if the room is smaller and the existing pieces that contain wood have similar hues. If there are items of wood in the room and the finishes are popular like mahogany, espresso, white or golden oak, you may have a more simple time matching new pieces like window treatments, shelving or frames in the same wood family. Don’t worry about making an absolute perfect match. Using varying shades of the same wood is aesthetically pleasing. Budget Blinds of West Essex can help you find a shade that complements the rest of your decor with Custom Wood Blinds in Montclair, Caldwell or Livingston.
Not a fan of things matching? No problem! The other design theory is to take the opportunity when adding in natural wood window solutions to include another shade or two of wood into the room. Staying in the realm of up to three different wood types or colors is best. In a larger room, contrasting wood shades will work well but if your space is smaller, try to include an off-white or neutral white to help the colors exist without clashing. If the wood in your room is already a shade of white, experiment with other wood tones rather than another white shade, to minimize the possibility that one light shade may appear dirty, worn out or dated.
