Custom Real Wood Blinds in Ypsilanti, MI

Real wood blinds for Ypsilanti’s historic interiors

Real wood blinds are made from genuine hardwood slats. Stained finishes show natural grain with real depth, and painted finishes have a solid, crafted look. Wood is lighter than faux wood, which keeps blinds on tall windows easier to lift.

Walk through an older Ypsilanti home and you’ll often find original hardwood floors, stained door and window casings, pocket doors or a built-in buffet. Wood blinds belong in those rooms. A stain chosen to sit alongside the existing woodwork makes the blinds look as if they came with the house, while a painted finish suits rooms where the trim has already been painted. On tall Victorian windows, wood blinds also give you fine control over light, tilting to block glare while keeping the room bright.

Because stains look different in morning and evening light, and old woodwork has its own warm patina, we bring samples so you can compare them in place. We carry real wood blinds from leading manufacturers, including Hunter Douglas, in several slat sizes, stains, paints and decorative tapes, and we’ll suggest faux wood for kitchens and baths.
