Edmonton Homeowners Love Horizontal Sheer Shades—Here’s Why
Do you ever think that some fresh air is needed in your house?
Like the walls are begging for some light? Some softness? Maybe a little privacy—without living in the dark?
Well, if you’re in Edmonton, you're not alone. And if you haven’t heard of horizontal sheer shades, let me walk you through the window style Edmonton homeowners are obsessed with this spring.
Morning Coffee & Sunlight—Without The Blinding Glare
It all started on a quiet Saturday morning. I was sipping my coffee, staring at my living room window.
It was bright. Too bright.
I kept squinting like I was watching a suspense thriller. Ever had that moment?
That’s when a friend casually mentioned horizontal sheer shades. And I was like, “Sheer what now?”
But once I saw them? I got it. These are not your average blinds.
So... What Are Horizontal Sheer Shades?
Okay, imagine this:
Two sheer fabric layers separated by horizontal fabric vanes. When the vanes are open—light filters in softly, like a gentle spring morning.
When they’re closed—you get full privacy, like any classic blind.
They’re basically the cool cousin of Roller Shades and Venetian—only more elegant.
And yes, they’re a hit in Edmonton. They're useful, not just because they look good.
Why Do Edmonton Homes Love Them So Much?
1. They Tame Our Spring Sun Like a Pro
Edmonton’s spring brings sunshine. Tons of them.
Horizontal sheer shades let that light in—without burning your eyes or your furniture.
You don’t have to choose between a bright room and UV damage anymore.
It’s like wearing sunglasses but for your windows.
2. Goodbye Peeping Toms, Hello Privacy
You want light.
But you also don’t want Bob from across the street staring in while you're stretching on a Sunday.
By blurring the outside view, these shades help you maintain your privacy.
Even when the blinds are technically open.
3. They're Smooth, Soft, and Just... Pretty
Let’s be honest—standard blinds can look a little too “office cubicle.”
These? They float. Literally.
They give off that high-end, hotel vibe. Minimalist. Calm. Clean.
People walk into your space and say, “Oh wow, these are nice.”
And you smile because yes, they are.
4. Spring Allergies? Keep Windows Closed, Style Intact
If you’re like me, spring means sneezing.
So, no wide-open windows for long.
But sheer shades let light in, even with windows closed.
Your space stays airy—without the pollen party.
5. Energy Bill? Handled
It might still snow randomly in Edmonton. We all know it.
But whether it’s heat or cold outside, horizontal sheer shades help keep things balanced inside.
You won’t have to crank up the AC or blast the heater.
They insulate. Quietly. Smartly.
