AUSTRIAN BLINDS

Austrian blinds are 'blinds' ready to be drawn up and down. ready to emit light and exclude light.

Look at the nature of Austrian Blinds. Look how full they are and how they hang; They are rich and are suited to a wide variety of fabric treatments ; They can be plush and heavy ..but should not be too heavy and rich because of the fullness needed; There is a 'full' gathering at the top too and this full gathering aids in the complete and full 'hang' that is unique to Austrian Blinds. Sometimes even though mid-weight fabrics may be the obvious choice, there are suggestions that light-weight fabrics are suited to such window dressings.

Light fabrics can be good for gathering and drape but Austrian Blinds are rich and scalloped and a suitable mid-weight fabric is perhaps best.
