Shutters 101: Invisible Tilt vs. Hidden Tilt

Hidden Tilt and Invisible Tilt are terms that are sometimes mistakenly interchanged. It's important to know the difference before you make a purchase. Hidden Tilt is attached to louvers with a metal plate to the back the louver. This weakens the louvers, and over time they have been shown to crack and break. The inherent flaws in the Hidden Tilt system led Norman Shutters, the industry leader in shutter technology, to invent Invisible Tilt. Invisible Tilt is exclusive to Norman Shutters and is built directly into the shutter panel. It is an internal system that allows the louvers to move freely while maintaining their structural integrity, ensuring a lifetime of ease and functionality.

What Can I Do With Corner Windows?

A beautiful architectural feature in a home, corner windows can be a challenge to cover. The good news is that most any product type and style can be used on corner windows. In these situations, it's important that you're working with trained professionals who will know how to measure, order and install so that you can enjoy your home fully with options for light control and privacy, and that you can have a look that compliments your home. #thebudgetblindsdifference

Transitional Style in the Living Room

With it's perfect blend of traditional and contemporary sensibilities, it's no wonder that the transitional style has been embraced by so many homeowners. It allows you to tell the story of who you are, with family heirlooms intermixed with new pieces that you've selected. It's a style that has been described as "timeless and classic" which is why shutters are such a great way to finish the space. Their clean lines are simple and elegant while the various frames and finishes keep the balance with just a nod to tradition. Transitional style + shutters - another good thing from Budget Blinds.

Shutters 101: Divided Tilt

This home office is beautifully appointed with custom trim work, treasures from a variety of travels and experiences, and white composite shutters with divided tilt. This photo is a great example of why divided tilt is an important option when considering shutters for your home. It allows you to have privacy by closing the lower louvers while still enjoying the light and view through the top of the window. Whether you're putting shutters in your home office, dining room, bathroom, bedroom, etc., being able to have privacy PLUS light and views makes a big difference in your day-to-day living and overall enjoyment of your space. #thebudgetblindsdifference

Beauty & Functionality with Shutters & Blinds

This great room already had plenty of great modern style and it needed an equally attractive option for the windows. Shutters with divided tilt by the sofa were the perfect fit, allowing our client's dog to watch the neighborhood during the day while still affording a privacy option in the evening. The kitchen sink, with it's beautiful goose neck faucet, was not a fit for shutters due to the obstruction created by that same faucet. This is where experience and expertise matter, as you want someone to catch these things BEFORE installation day. We suggested a coordinating white wooden blind with the wider width slat to complete the look and the client was thrilled.

A Little Something Special for the Master Bath

We worked with this homeowner in Downers Grove, IL to help with her new home to provide foundation window coverings. Privacy and light control were well taken care of, but a year later she was looking to add a little more personality in the master suite. The addition of this euro-relaxed valance in a tone-on-tone grey stripe was the perfect addition and completed the space with style.

Stationary Drapery Panels to Frame the View

This dining room in Lombard, IL has the benefit of not receiving direct sunlight which meant the homeowner was looking to dress the windows but did not have any privacy, light or heat issues. The solution was these stationary panels made in a modern pleat and mounted on stained wood hardware with rings. The result enhanced their beautiful view, and the homeowner was thrilled.

Pinterest WIN!

Our client had recently installed the beautiful custom cut diamond windows throughout their home and was looking for decor and light control options that would compliment the windows and space. She shared with us that she'd seen something interesting on Pinterest and opened up the photo on her phone. One look told us that we could absolutely recreate the look on her larger windows and so we got down to the business of selecting fabrics. We carried different versions of this concept through to the dining room and foyer, and she was thrilled with the new look. #thebudgetblindsdifference

Dress the Powder Room in Style

Due to a leak in the powder room, this Glen Ellyn, IL homeowner had to redo most of the space. While it was a big inconvenience to the family, it was a great opportunity for her to use her creativity.

Paired with their existing grey honeycomb shade, this swag on medallions was the perfect addition and completed the space beautifully.

A Cozy Breakfast Nook

We first worked with this homeowner to put foundation treatments - in this case, cordless honeycomb shades - in this breakfast nook. A few months later she invited us back to help her create a valance that would compliment the space, as well as hide the shades when they are up. This swagged valance on medallions was the perfect solution, coordinating beautifully with the ironwork on the dining set and with the floral arrangement on the table.

A Boutique Master Bedroom

These custom drapery swags mounted on medallions were the perfect addition to this master bedroom in Glen Ellyn, IL.
