When it comes to eco-friendly designs that are both beautiful and natural, you can't beat bamboo shades. These window treatments are not only highly effective at increasing privacy and blocking out the sun's rays, they also add an elegant look to any room in your home. Bamboo shades are easy to install, but before you place your order with Blindster, you should first measure your window or the area you wish to cover with the shades. Taking accurate measurements is vital for the shades to fit properly.
To precisely measure your windows and receive shades that fit perfectly, follow the instructions below.
