Our kitchens are often the hives of the home! The place for everything from pouring your morning coffee to eating your evening meal… So, it’s key that you get the décor right in there and make it a space you love to be.
Blinds are a big part of interior design. Think of them as a large accessory that adds the perfect finishing touch. They really do make a big difference. So, let us guide you through the process of choosing the best kitchen window blinds for your home…
Our Top Picks for Kitchen Window Blinds
Roller blinds are one of our most popular choices for kitchen window blinds. It’s easy to see why! They come in a wide range of colours and designs, and are available in wipe-clean fabrics too!
Next up are vertical, Venetian and vision blinds. Each of these options offers fantastic levels of light and privacy control making them an ever-popular choice for kitchen window blinds.
Verticals are a classic. There are hundreds of options when it comes to colour and design so it’s easy to find a style to suit your kitchen.
Venetian blinds are beautiful and simplistic. Available in a wide range of neutral and wooden effects, as well as metallic shades, Venetian blinds will adorn your kitchen window in style. Venetian’s are also extremely easy to keep clean.
Vision blinds (also known as Day and Night Blinds or Zebra Blinds) are new kids on the block when it comes to blinds, but they’re certainly up at the top in terms of popularity! They’re a great choice for kitchen window blinds thanks to their modern and minimalistic appeal, plus they’re available in lots of colours and finishes too.
Things To Consider When Choosing Kitchen Window Blinds
Obviously, ‘The Best Kitchen Window Blinds’ is not a one-size-fits-all answer. Sorry! You’ll have to partake in some careful considerations first. For example, how do you use your room, how long do you want your blinds to last, where is your window positioned and so on…
The Privacy Control Required from Your Kitchen Window Blinds
Are you searching for blinds for your kitchen because of a lack of privacy without them? If so, you might want to consider how much control you’d like to have.
Of course, with any blind, you can close them completely and enjoy complete privacy. But if you also want to let the light in at the same time, we recommend Venetian, vertical and vision blinds.
The Light Control Required from Your Kitchen Window Blinds
You’ll also need to consider whether you need to control the amount, or the angle of, the light coming into your kitchen. This will affect which the best kitchen window blinds are for your needs.
Light control is likely to be a consideration if you use screens in the kitchen. For example, if you have a TV in there or use it as a work area. Again, Venetian, vertical and vision blinds are great options for controlling the degree of light in your kitchen. You’ll be able to control the light and your privacy completely by angling the slats to your exact preference.
Cleaning Your Kitchen Window Blinds
The kitchen is a room that’s prone to spillages, splashes, and grease. Your blinds are inevitably going to show the effects of this too. Especially if your window is positioned close to a cooking or food preparation area!
Therefore, it’s a good idea to choose kitchen window blinds that are easy to clean – preferably that can be wiped clean and won’t need machine washing! This will be the most hygienic option.
Luckily, there are lots of wipe-clean and humidity-resistant window blinds now available. Most you can dust, or wipe and they’ll be as good as new!
The Material of Your Kitchen Window Blinds
The kitchen is often a room with high levels of humidity and warmth due to the cooking that goes on in there regularly. Because of this, the material of the blinds you choose matters a lot. Some materials can warp or discolour when exposed to these conditions.
The Durability of Your Kitchen Window Blinds
The blinds you choose need to be durable and last as many years as possible. It’s worth investing in a good set of window blinds due to the sheer volume of traffic and (potentially messy) activity that goes on in your kitchen.
