In bedrooms, media rooms, nurseries, or offices, blackout fabrics are often recommended. Remember, you\u2019re always going to have that sheer layer to let in light when you need it. Those are places where you want maximum light control. For spaces you want to keep light and bright, like a kitchen or a dining room, choose a light-filtering material. Light filtering styles also pair well with drapery. This is especially useful if you want complete privacy.<\/p>\n<div class=\"curalate-widget\" style=\"max-width: 600px; margin: auto; min-width: 240px; min-height: 240px;\">\n<div class=\"curalate-widget-container\" style=\"position: relative; width: 100%; height: 0; border-radius: 3px; padding-bottom: 58.666666666666664%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"curalate-widget-iframe\" style=\"z-index: 1; border-radius: 3px; position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; left: 0; top: 0;\" title=\"Curalate Reveal: Interactive image with tagged items\" src=\"https:\/\/r.curalate.com\/v2\/widget\/OjK8VrKpNL9uG3m1CRfiJUyrD0TVQ6y8?replaceTabs=false&amp;spatialTagIcon=tag&amp;autoShowProducts=false&amp;shopButtonText=View Details\" width=\"600\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"curalate-widget-image lazyload\" style=\"position: relative !important; z-index: 0 !important; width: 100%; border-radius: 3px;\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/edge.curalate.com\/v1\/img\/3_HeDQlqUiBWy2ACeFab_7ieiO7FwIZfy1sS1JSEKtw=\/d\/l\" alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" \/><script class=\"curalate-widget-script\" async=\"\" defer=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/d30bopbxapq94k.cloudfront.net\/js\/curalate-widget-client-all-v3.min.js\"><\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-20479 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"11\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-300x6.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-585x11.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-450x8.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-225x4.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-20x1.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-150x3.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Lift Options<\/h3>\n<p>Our zebra blinds can be customized with a variety of lift options. A standard <b>cordless lift<\/b> gives you a simple handle on the bottom rail that allows you to easily adjust your shades. A <b>continuous cord loop<\/b> can be secured to the wall to give you a rotating chain that can be accessed from inside the window casing. Dual sheers can also be <b>motorized<\/b> for total remote control with the push of a button from anywhere in the house. Consider a <b>rechargeable motorized wand<\/b>, which hangs from the blind, if you\u2019re worried about losing the remote. Finally, saving the best for last, motorized shades can be paired with a <b>home automation option<\/b>. This can pair your shade to your smart home, phone, or devices. We heavily recommend a motorized option, especially for large or hard-to-reach windows.<\/p>\n<div class=\"curalate-widget\" style=\"max-width: 600px; margin: auto; min-width: 240px; min-height: 240px;\">\n<div class=\"curalate-widget-container\" style=\"position: relative; width: 100%; height: 0; border-radius: 3px; padding-bottom: 98.5%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"curalate-widget-iframe\" style=\"z-index: 1; border-radius: 3px; position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; left: 0; top: 0;\" title=\"Curalate Reveal: Interactive image with tagged items\" src=\"https:\/\/r.curalate.com\/v2\/widget\/1MgoAzYql1WOHrt7eOUOwxSaQIcnrLLF?replaceTabs=false&amp;spatialTagIcon=tag&amp;autoShowProducts=false&amp;shopButtonText=View Details\" width=\"600\" height=\"591\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"curalate-widget-image lazyload\" style=\"position: relative !important; z-index: 0 !important; width: 100%; border-radius: 3px;\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/edge.curalate.com\/v1\/img\/Hdt9bsdBdzKbz14I5Me8UTd6t26JMlsTwQ-nCVVVcJI=\/d\/l\" alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" \/><script class=\"curalate-widget-script\" async=\"\" defer=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/d30bopbxapq94k.cloudfront.net\/js\/curalate-widget-client-all-v3.min.js\"><\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-20479 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"11\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-300x6.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-585x11.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-450x8.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-225x4.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-20x1.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-150x3.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Dual sheer shades dance between light and shadow, effortlessly transitioning from sheer to solid.
