Window Blinds for Edina and Minnetonka, MN
“Blind” is the term we use to describe a window treatment that has individual slats or vanes that hang either horizontally or vertically and can be rotated to an open or closed position. Blinds are probably the most versatile of all window coverings and give the operator almost infinite control over light and privacy. Blinds are easy to enjoy and maintain. Most blinds are fade resistant, scratch resistant, moisture resistant, chemical resistant, and very easy to clean. Horizontal blinds are available in real wood, faux wood, and aluminum. Vertical blinds are available in wood, aluminum, vinyl, and fabric.
