See why bamboo woven wood shades could be right for you
Indoor bamboo shades come in a wide range of styles and colors. These unique shades emphasize natural, earthy colors that highlight the unique character of each bamboo slat. Get the style you want from casual to upscale, and from cozy getaway to beachfront resort - just pair one of our many bamboo blind colors with your decor for an unforgettable look.
We offer a wide range of custom bamboo shades – some even without bamboo! It’s why these types of shades are sometimes called woven shades, since they can be made from various hand-loomed combinations of bamboo, grass, wood, jute and other natural materials. Choose the design that speaks to you, whether you’re going for a casual look or designer elegance – our bamboo shades can do both!
Bamboo blinds typically lay flat when they are lowered but will stack up into soft folds of material when raised, like bamboo roman shades. In fact, bamboo shades are constructed exactly like a roman shade, just with unique natural materials instead of fabric!
Designers, decorators, and DIYers all love the look of bamboo shades – and you will too! Here are a few reasons to put woven wood shades in your home:
- Easily add character to your windows while complementing your style.
- Some styles allow in more or less sunshine. Choose more open weaves for a bright airy atmosphere, or a tighter weave for more light control and privacy.
- Need extra privacy or light control? Add a light filtering or room darkening liner to the back of the shade.
- Sourced from sustainable materials for environmentally friendly decor.
Not just a pretty face, bamboo blinds have it where it counts too! Great features help you raise and lower your woven blinds with ease, keep them looking like new, and even ways to maximize light control:
- When customizing your shade, you can select which lift option you want to raise your shade. Choose shades with continuous cord loop, cordless bamboo shades, or even motorized bamboo shades with convenient remote control operation.
- Optional edge binding wraps the sides of your shade with your choice of fabric edging to add a decorative accent and prevent fraying
- Top-down/bottom-up is an upgrade that lets you not just raise the shade from the bottom but also lower it from the top to maximize privacy and lighting control
With so many options, it might seem hard to choose the right bamboo shades for your home. We recommend browsing through all our options and finding a few colors that stand out to you. How about a rich weave featuring rattan, bamboo, and jute? Or maybe you like the look of simpler matchstick blinds?
When you fall in love with one, decide what options and upgrades you need for each room. For example, if privacy and maximum light blocking is a necessity, add liners for blackout bamboo shades. That's the beauty of ordering custom bamboo blinds from us – you can get the perfect one made just for you!

Natural bamboo shades are a stylish way to enhance your living spaces, offering an earthy aesthetic and functional benefits like blocking glare. Whether you're working with interior designers or seeking advice from design consultants, understanding how to measure and install these shades is essential for creating natural-looking custom shades. Here's a step-by-step guide:
- Measuring for Natural Bamboo Shades
- Decide on Mounting Style: Choose whether the shades will be mounted inside the window frame or on the wall. Interior mounts create a seamless, tailored look, while wall-mounted options provide better coverage for blocking light, especially on large windows.
- Measure Window Dimensions: For an interior mount, get the width of the window frame at three points: top, middle, and bottom. Record the smallest measurement (e.g., 0/1–2 inch increments for precision). For a wall mount, get the width and height you want the shade to cover, adding extra space for optimal coverage.
- Consider a Light Filtering Liner: If you need to enhance privacy, especially in spaces like a bedroom, opt for a 0/1 privacy liner they pair beautifully with natural bamboo shades, offering a balance between blocking sunlight and maintaining a soft, ambient glow from the filtered light.
- Installing Your Natural Bamboo Shades
- Prepare the Mounting Area: If you chose a wall-mounted setup, ensure the wall is level and sturdy. For interior mounts, ensure the window frame is free from obstructions.
- Attach Mounting Hardware: Follow the manufacturer's instructions to install the brackets, aligning them with your measured points. Double-check spacing for large windows to ensure even weight distribution.
- Hang the Shades: Secure the natural bamboo shades onto the brackets. Test the fit to confirm that they operate smoothly and align properly with the window or wall.
By following these steps, you’ll achieve natural-looking custom shades that combine functionality and design elegance. Whether you're styling a cozy bedroom or upgrading your windows, bamboo shades with optional light filtering liners ensure privacy while blocking light and complementing any decor.
