Banded Shades for a Blaine Nursery

Soft Light, Easy Privacy and a Sweet, Calm Room

Bindi & Bird recently finished a banded shade project for a nursery in Blaine, and the room now feels soft, bright and peaceful at every time of day.

The family wanted a clean, modern look on a large window and a side window, gentle daylight for playtime and easy privacy for naps. Banded shades gave them all of it with one simple shade on each window.

Our Pick

Why We Chose Banded Shades

Banded shades layer alternating stripes of sheer and solid fabric. Line up the sheer stripes and soft daylight pours into the room. Shift the shade slightly and the solid stripes come together for privacy, all without raising the shade.

For this nursery we chose a soft, linen-look fabric in a warm gray with a matching fabric-wrapped cassette at the top. The texture adds warmth, and the neutral color pairs beautifully with the white trim, wood-look floors and natural baskets in the room.

Best of Both

Bright for Play, Cozy for Naps

During the day the sheer stripes keep the nursery bright and cheerful with a gentle, even glow. At nap time, a quick adjustment brings the solid stripes together for a softer, more private room.

Light and privacy in one simple shade.

The shade can also be raised all the way up into the cassette when the family wants the whole window open.

Around the Room

One Clean Look on Every Window

Matching banded shades on the large window and the side window give the nursery a calm, finished look. The fabric-wrapped cassettes line up neatly at the top, and the stripes match from window to window whether the shades are open, closed or somewhere in between.
