Two major trends are defining window covering choices for homeowners this year, according to a August 22 report. Smart motorized shades and energy-efficient cellular honeycomb shades have emerged as the industry's leading trends.
Smart motorized shades allow for automatic adjustments based on personal preference, sunlight, or schedules, which helps regulate indoor temperatures and reduce glare. Cellular honeycomb shades are also highly valued for a layered structure that traps air to maintain home comfort across seasons.
Bindi and Bird, a sister-owned business in Bellingham, has centered its selection around these trends. As an authorized Hunter Douglas dealer, the store provides access to motorized systems and cellular shade offerings from brands including Hunter Douglas, Lafayette, Graber, Norman, and Alta.
The store specializes in fitting sliding glass doors with motorized roller shades and panel track systems, which provide cleaner stacking and smoother operation than traditional vertical blinds. Luminette window shadings, which combine sheer fabric panels with rotating vanes, are also available for wide openings.
Founders Jodie and Jolene established Bindi and Bird to provide homeowners with a high-quality selection of window coverings. The sisters named the business after their own dogs and maintain a team of experienced specialists to conduct in-home consultations and installations.
Bindi and Bird provides free in-home consultations throughout Bellingham, Lynden, Ferndale, and Blaine, with services extending into Skagit and Island County.
