Wood blinds and faux wood blinds are a classic window treatment choice that adds warmth, texture, and timeless style to any room. At Expressions in Window Fashions, we carry real wood blinds, faux wood blinds, and mini blinds — all custom-cut to your exact window dimensions and owner-installed by Tim Bustos throughout Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Naples, and all of Southwest Florida.
Real wood blinds are made from basswood, ramin, or other hardwoods and are available in a wide range of stains and painted finishes. They add natural warmth and texture to living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms. Real wood blinds are ideal for interior rooms with controlled humidity — they should not be used in bathrooms, kitchens, or other high-humidity environments where moisture can cause warping or cracking. Available in 2-inch and 2.5-inch slat sizes.
Faux wood blinds are made from moisture-resistant composite or PVC and are the preferred choice for Southwest Florida's coastal climate. They look identical to real wood blinds but will never warp, crack, or discolor — even in bathrooms, kitchens, and rooms with direct sun exposure. Faux wood blinds are available in a wide range of colors and finishes, including wood-grain textures that closely mimic the look of real wood. They are also more affordable than real wood blinds, making them an excellent value for whole-home installations.
Both real wood and faux wood blinds are available with motorization. Motorized wood blinds can be controlled by remote, wall switch, or smart-home app, and integrate with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. They are ideal for large windows, high windows, and rooms where you want to tilt or raise multiple blinds simultaneously. Ask Tim about motorization options during your free in-home consultation.
