The sheer weave line of roller shades are the perfect solution when looking for a window treatment that will provide UV protection, minimize glare and protect your most precious furniture. All of this can be accomplished by adding a Sheer Weave 3000 or 5000 Roller Shade to your window while still maintaining that spectacular view to the mountains or your own backyard. These features give this popular product its commonly used name of solar shades. Some of the sheer weave roller shades are available with the modern looking Cassette system to conceal the roller, and motorization for an effortless way to raise the solar shades.

Getting a place with a lot of sunlight is amazing. It means open space where you can experience the weather. However, it also means that you will get the early morning sunlight that wakes you up before time, heat, and the harmful UV rays. springblinds.com/blackout-shades
