Wood & Faux Wood Blinds in Las Vegas

Wood blinds bring the warmth of a shutter at a fraction of the cost, with the slat control a shutter also gives you. Real basswood is light, takes stain beautifully, and suits a room where the trim and the floor are already doing the talking.

Faux wood is the more practical sibling and, in this climate, usually the smarter buy. It will not warp, fade, or crack in direct desert sun, and it goes anywhere moisture lives. Modern faux wood is embossed and color-matched well enough that most people cannot tell the difference from across the room.

The honest guidance we give: use real wood where the window is shaded and the room is formal, and faux wood everywhere the sun actually hits. We have replaced too many sun-bleached real wood blinds on west elevations to recommend otherwise.
