Fabric Roller Shades & Blinds
Fabric Roller Shades & Blinds
Fabric roller shades are becoming increasingly popular, especially when compared to their vinyl equivalents. The use of fabric offers a warmer aesthetic than vinyl, allowing you to create a cozier home with these types of shades.
Common Questions About Fabric Roller Shades & Blinds
What are roller shades?
Roller shades are among the simplest of window treatments. They’re shades made using a single roll of fabric, which you can raise or lower depending on whether or not you want to look out of your window. They typically get fitted above your window frame and use a cord loop for operation.
How to clean fabric roller shades?
Though roller blinds are made using a sheet of fabric, it’s not a good idea to submerge them in water when cleaning. Instead, use a vacuum with a brush attachment to lightly dust the blinds. Support the shades from the back to prevent the fabric from crumpling and getting sucked into the vacuum.
How to attach fabric to vinyl roller shade?
Adding fabric to a vinyl roller shade creates a brand-new look. Trim about 1/8 of an inch from each side of the vinyl. Choose a lightweight fabric and measure it to the same size as the trimmed vinyl. Then, bind the two materials using contact cement and glue.
Can I add fabric to a roller shade?
As long as you cut the fabric to fit the frame and have a full roller shade kit, you should be able to add fabric to an existing roller shade. You’ll usually need an adhesive to stick the fabric to the existing material used in the shade.
