What color of faux wood blinds should we use?
ANDIE Want’s to know:
We provision (greyish) inside the old white house. The walls are painted sweet tone and clearer than that. The outside of our house is sand (tan) with the provision white window. I found some wooden filing of the blind, white faux relatively inexpensive in the country that have cut while you wait. Should I go with those white match the available external or should I go with greyish be the same color of internal provision? Thank you.
room darkening double cell shades

They should match your interior trim.
This color will also allow you to make more decorating changes in the future. Such as draperies.

bring one home and try it (b-4 the cutting) sometimes the contrast can be nice or it can just make your trim look dirty but the only way to truly tell is in your home with your lighting.

You might as well match it to the interior trim. When you look at the blinds from the inside, you see them clearly. But, when looking at the blinds from the outside, the glass from the window might distort the color a bit, making them look off-white, anyway.
Besides, you’ll be looking at them from inside all the time, and occasionally from the outside. So, make it match from the side you will see all the time.
