										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Hard-Wired or Battery Operated? Which Electric Blind is Best for You?</h2>
<p>​Electric blinds bring sophistication and practicality to any room. Specifically, they are the perfect solution for high or hard-to-reach windows. Consequently, you can control light and privacy with a simple click.<br />
​Once you’ve decided on electric, the next big question arises. Should you choose Hard-wired or Battery-operated? Here is everything you need to know.</p>
<h2>1. Hard-Wired Blinds (Mains Powered)</h2>
<p>Hard-wired blinds connect directly to your home’s electricity. Therefore, they are the &#8220;set-and-forget&#8221; choice for long-term convenience.<br />
​The Advantages:<br />
​Constant Power: You never have to change a battery. This is ideal for very high or inaccessible windows.<br />
​Perfect for Large Windows: Mains power provides high torque. As a result, it lifts heavy, oversized blinds effortlessly.<br />
​Perfect Synchronization: If you have multiple blinds, they move at the exact same speed.<br />
​Smart Features: You can easily integrate them with apps for automated schedules.<br />
​The Considerations:<br />
​Installation: These requires a power socket or a 5-amp fused switch nearby.<br />
​Cost &amp; Labor: Hiding wires can be a messy job. Furthermore, it often increases the initial installation cost.</p>
<h2>2. Battery Operated Blinds</h2>
<p>​These blinds run on D-Cell batteries. Because of this, they offer a wire-free, &#8220;plug-and-play&#8221; experience.<br />
​The Advantages:<br />
​Easy Installation: You don&#8217;t need an electrician. Similarly, you don&#8217;t need to drill into walls to hide wires.<br />
​Clean Look: The motor and battery are completely hidden.<br />
​Safety: There are no external wires. Thus, they are very safe for homes with children.<br />
​Affordability: Upfront costs are lower compared to hard-wired systems.<br />
​The Considerations:<br />
​Maintenance: Batteries last approximately five years. However, you will eventually need to replace them.<br />
​Size Limits: Battery power is not ideal for massive blinds. Instead, you might consider installing several smaller blinds.<br />
​Speed Variance: Battery levels can vary. Consequently, multiple blinds may move at slightly different speeds.</p>
<h2>The Bottom Line</h2>
<p>Both options are reliable, quiet, and energy-efficient.<br />
​Choose Hard-wired if you are currently building or renovating. It is a permanent, heavy-duty solution.<br />
​In contrast, choose Battery-operated if you want a quick, stylish upgrade. It avoids the hassle of electrical work.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>Contemporary style giving a cosy effect</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The pleated blind is very versatile and is equally good for large openings, such as for a patio door right down to a window in a small room, or one that feels cramped, as they take up minimal space at the window.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">They can be opened from both the top and the bottom, which gives you options depending on where you need your privacy or shading from the sun.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When made from a regular fabric they allow the sunlight to gently diffuse into the room creating a peaceful ambience to your space. &nbsp;They can also be made from a blackout material, shielding you form the rising sun. Perfect for your bedroom.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The thermal and solar insulation of the fabric makes it a popular choice for sun rooms and conservatories.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We offer a wide range of colours and designs.</span></p>

]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There comes a point in most people’s lives when they decide they want to change the look and feel of a room.  Sometimes the way the room is used has subtly changed and it’s time for a re-think about how it looks and works.  Fashions change. Your own tastes change. Whatever the reason you have decided to make that change, here are some questions to consider when thinking about window blinds for your room.</span></p>
<h2>Why choose window blinds?</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Blinds can be overlooked when considering a room design, but they are a great solution to your window treatment, that not only make a statement if you want it to, but also can contribute to light and heat control.  They can bring together a feel of a room with one swish of fabric, or wood depending on your tastes.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The styles of window blinds that are now available range from a utilitarian <strong><a href="https://craftblinds.ie/vertical-blinds/">vertical blind</a></strong>, or a minimalist <strong><a href="https://craftblinds.ie/wooden-venetian-blinds/">wooden blind</a></strong> that is perfect for controlling the light in a work space, or a very modern room design; to fabric Roman blinds that can be layered up with curtains with complimentary and accenting fabrics to give a softer feel to your room.</span></p>
<h2>Which room will the window blinds be going in?</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Depending on which room you are considering a new window treatment for will affect how hard the blind has to work.  A roller shade works well in a kitchen or bathroom as they have a special coating that will protect them. A blackout blind in a bedroom will allow you to sleep beyond the dawn chorus in the summer, whilst wooden blinds in a well-ventilated bathroom would look effortlessly chic and give a beach or spa feel to the room.  Conservatories have the most variations to them and pleated blinds were designed with conservatories in mind as they can be made to fit the awkward window shapes that are often found in a conservatory. Blinds don’t necessarily have to be a big expensive statement, you may just want a cheap blind to help keep the droughts at bay in an old window.</span></p>
<h2>What is my Overall Room Design?</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Every room design advice page since the beginning of The Make Over Phenomenon always say start with a mood board.  This still holds true and is still where interior designers start. A physical mood board of pictures, paint samples, fabric samples and accessories would be ideal, but you can just think about the what you’re you looking to achieve in your re-design.  Quite often a blind can go a long way to realising the vision. Are you looking for the grand elegance of a drawing room with Roman blinds and floor to ceiling curtains that showcase your chosen fabrics? Maybe a bamboo blind in a sunny extension or conservatory with big leafy potted plants to give the ambience of a tropical holiday.  The venetian blinds or mini blinds as they’re also known by, give a good control to light and privacy and can be fitted where you need that control, on a busy window or in an office.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When you take a step back and look at your window you will see that a blind can achieve privacy, light control and even temperature control while giving the impression of opulence, minimalism or feeling like you are at the beach.  They can take up as much or as little space at the window as you desire. When fitted inside the recess they will bring clean lines and a sense of space. If you wish to cover a door, or a window that you want to open and close without affecting the blind they can be fitted to the window frame.  They are also a good option for the awkward window shape, such as a <strong><a href="https://craftblinds.ie/roman-blinds/">Roman fabric blind</a></strong> in a square bay window, or a pleated blind in the roof of your conservatory. When choosing a blind from CWB they will be made to measure and will fit any shape or size window perfectly.</span></p>
<h2>Is a Blind a Safe Choice?</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With the <strong><a href="https://www.nsai.ie/about/news/safety-awareness-for-window-blinds/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blind safety legislation that came into effect in 2014</a></strong> it is something that is already taken care of in our made to measure blinds.  Our window blinds are installed with either a cleat or hook depending on the blind you choose. However, if you are considering a window treatment in a child’s bedroom, there is a range of blinds available that do not have cords but have a spring mechanism so there is no chance of an accident while you are not there. </span></p>
<h2>Hue, Colour, Ambience?</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Window blinds are fantastically versatile.  They can give your room a sharp minimalistic feel, or add opulence or cottagey chic.  They have clean lines and show off beautiful fabric. If you choose a  bamboo or wooden blinds, they can give your room a natural feel.  Whatever the job they have to do, be it privacy, light control or both, there will be a stylish solution that will enhance your room design.</span></p>

									<span style="font-weight: 400;">Everyone likes to be thorough when they clean their homes but most people forget to clean window blinds when they do.  To make sure you have clean window blinds that last a long time and stay in good condition it is important to make sure they don’t gather too much dust and grime.  Cleaning blinds is a simple and easy thing to do but you need to make sure you attend to them regularly to keep them looking as good as new. Below we have detailed the steps you can follow to keep your blinds looking great.</span>

<strong>You Will Need:</strong>
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Feather duster.</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Vacuum cleaner, with upholstery attachment.</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Microfiber cloth.</span></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Warm soapy water.</span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Step 1: Remove Surface Dust</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The first step to getting clean window blinds is to take your feather duster and remove any dust sitting on the surface of the blinds.  If you are cleaning a fabric Roman blind use the vacuum blind cleaner with an upholstery attachment. Some vacuum cleaners allow you to set the suction speed, ensure it is on the lowest setting should you be able to.  The feather is the best duster for blinds, Venetian blinds, or mini blinds. Opening the slats to run the feather duster between them to remove the dust on both the top and the bottom of each slat. Be careful not to apply too much pressure to the slats as that might cause them to bend or break.  If you are cleaning  roller blinds, simply roll the blind down and dust both the front and back of the blind. Vertical blinds happily do not attract much dust, but it is still good practice to run your duster over each side of the slats regularly.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Step 2: Remove Grime</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The first step should be sufficient to keep your blinds clean if done regularly.  But we know that sometimes grime starts to develop that a simple feather dusting won’t remove, especially blinds that are in the kitchen.  Using the microfibre cloth and some soapy water suffices to remove the more stubborn grime. Simply make one end of the cloth damp and gently wipe off the grime.  Do not use too much detergent in your water as we don’t want the blind to become too soapy. If the stains are particularly stubborn adding some bicarbonate of soda to the soapy water will aid your cleaning.  You do not want to have your cloth too wet so wring it out as much as you can this will prevent the slats from warping. A particular problem with cleaning wooden Venetian blinds. If you are cleaning roller blinds you want to wipe them down in much the same way as a Venetian blind.  Putting them in the bath with mild soapy water can often play havoc with the roller mechanisms, so it’s best not to. For fabric blinds, spot cleaning in this way may work well, but you may also wish to consider getting them professionally dry cleaned; putting them in the washing machine is an option, but may damage the fabric.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Remember to clean the mountings and side tracks as well.</span>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Step 3: Dry Your Blinds</span></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">The last step is to use the dry side of the microfibre cloth, or another dry cloth if you happen to have one, to remove any excess water and detergent on the slats.  As with the dusting blinds, you need to be very gentle to remove any excess water being careful not to use excessive force that might damage the slats. Then open your window to allow any water left to evaporate off.</span>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cleaning Cellular Shades</span></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">If you have cellular shades or honeycomb blinds, then you will need a can of compressed air, available in most hardware shops, to get dust, spider webs and insects out from the inside the cells.  If you can’t find a can of compressed air, a hairdryer set to very cool and on the lowest setting can also be used. The front and back of the cellular shades are cleaned the same way as the blinds discussed in Steps 1, 2 and 3 – that is to say with a feather duster and an almost-dry-damp cloth </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">To clean window blinds is a relatively simple task. Regular feather dusting should keep your blinds looking great. For more stubborn dirt, a microfiber cloth with some soapy water will do the trick, but you should only need to do this twice a year.  Remember not to make the Venetian blind slats too wet or to use too much detergent. The gentle approach works best here.</span>								</div>
