Adding Ambiance

The softness of a curtain with the functionality of a blind. Sheer Shades feature soft fabric vanes suspended between two sheer panels. This unique design allows you to tilt the vanes for precise light control while bathing your North Jersey home in a warm, diffused glow—perfect for creating an inviting atmosphere in living rooms and dining areas. 

Protect Your Interiors One of the biggest advantages of Sheer Shades is their ability to filter out harmful UV rays even when the vanes are open. This protects your hardwood floors, artwork, and furniture from fading under the sun. Made in the Shade offers a variety of vane sizes (from 2″ to 4″) and fabrics to match your aesthetic.

Seamless Operation For large windows or hard-to-reach foyers, we recommend upgrading to Motorized Sheer Shades. With no lifting cords, they offer a clean look and are safer for homes with children and pets.

FAQ

Are these the same as Zebra Blinds?

Not exactly. While both are modern and striped, Sheer Shades have horizontal vanes floating between two sheer layers (like a soft blind). Zebra Blinds act more like a roller shade with alternating solid and sheer bands. Both are fantastic options, depending on the look you want.

Do they offer privacy?
  • Yes. During the day, the sheer facings obscure the view into your home while letting you see out. At night, for total privacy, you can simply tilt the vanes closed. For bedrooms, we recommend choosing a “room-darkening” fabric option.

How do I clean them? (Are they delicate?)

Because the fabric is delicate, we do not recommend scrubbing. The best way to clean Sheer Shades is to use a hair dryer (on the cool setting) or a can of compressed air to blow dust / debris out of the fabric vanes.
