The Ultimate Guide to Roman Blind Lining
Lining your made to measure blinds can be easily often forgotten, but so important as the lining can give your blinds an extra layer of protection from sunlight but also help retain heat inside your home. So, what is roman blind lining? Roman blind lining is a fabric attached to the back of a blind that can help retain heat or reduce light. We know it can be confusing trying to decide which lining is right for your home, so we have put together a guide to each lining type to help you choose.
Choosing lining for your roman blinds
We’ve made it easy to choose the right lining for your roman made to measure blinds. Choose from just two different lining types when designing your window apparel with Stitched - - - bonded and blackout bonded. We’ve kept it simple as these two options give a luxurious finish to your roman blinds, protect the fabric and make the blinds nice and full. We’ve outlined the benefits of both roman blind lining types below to help you choose which is right for your windows.
Unlined
A wonderfully simple and affordable option. At Stitched, we make your roman blind using your selected fabric only. The unlined finish is a great choice for showing off the natural beauty and form of your fabric. Unlined roman blinds are best suited for thicker fabric, as without a lining or with the wrong fabric, roman blinds can look thin or flimsy. On the flip side, they can produce a sheer look if designed correctly and with the right fabric.
Bonded Lined
A sumptuous, padded lining is stitched onto the back of your selected fabric before making your roman blind. The bonded lining gives a fuller, more luxurious look than the lined finish, but not only that, it provides additional insulation. The lining adds weight to the blind, which means that the blind hangs beautifully and for this added layer, there is near to no price difference in having a regular lined blind.
Bonded Blackout
Same as Bonded lining… but you know, blackout! Perfect for a blackout bedroom and adding a thermal layer to your roman blinds. The best of both worlds!
