We get it.
Your windows need a treatment, but you don't want everything to feel like it came from the same catalog. You're going for something warmer, more textured… something that has visual character and plays well with natural elements in your home.
Woven wood shades bring organic texture that solid fabric shades simply can't. They're made from bamboo, reeds, grasses, or other natural materials woven together, each one has a unique character. They soften a space without making it feel fussy.
Woven wood shades might be right for you if:
You want warmth and texture rather than a flat fabric look
Your home has natural materials — wood floors, rattan, stone — that you want to complement
You want something that feels organic and handmade rather than manufactured
You're designing a living room, bedroom, study, or sunspace with a natural aesthetic
How it Works
How Our Woven Wood Shade Installation Works
Step 1 | In-Home Consult
After an initial phone call, in which we can usually provide a ballpark estimate, we come to you! We bring material samples to your home so you can feel the texture and see how each weave looks in your space. The material selection matters a lot here because samples in person beat anything you'll see online.
Step 2 | Custom Order
Every shade is ordered to your exact window dimensions.
Step 3 | We Install It
Our team handles the full installation. Woven wood shades require correct mounting to hang and operate well, so we make sure it's done right before we leave.
what’s included
What Our Woven Wood Shade Installation Includes
In-home measurement of every window
Material and weave selection with physical samples in your space
Custom-sized shades ordered to your exact window dimensions
Liner options available for enhanced light control or privacy
Motorized operation available
Professional installation by our own team
Light note: Because woven wood shades are made from natural materials rather than solid fabric, they allow some light to filter through the weave, giving the window a warm, glowing quality when the shade is down. If you need complete privacy or room darkening, a liner can be added.
