Hero: butterfly blind with layered floating vanes half-open in a sunlit DFW living room
Butterfly Blinds — Dallas & Fort Worth

Layered vanes, light that floats

Horizontal fabric vanes that appear to float, open for a soft view or closed flat for daytime privacy. A modern, sag-free structure custom-fit to every window in your DFW home.

01 Custom made to your measurements Every blind built to one window, not a size chart.
02 Open, filtered, or closed vanes Move freely between all three positions any time.
03 Sheer-backed or light-filtering fabric Keep a view or go fully private, room by room.
04 Cordless and motorized options Standard wherever kids or pets are in the home.
How They Work

Three vane positions, one floating look

The horizontal vanes are a layered structure, not a single sheet. Spread them open for a view, bring them closer for filtered light, or align them flat for privacy — then roll the whole thing up for an unobstructed window.

Open

Build Yours

Choose your fabric

Three quick choices below. They are not an order — they tell your designer exactly which samples to bring, so the consultation starts where you left off instead of at the beginning.

Step 1 of 3 — Fabric
Woven Oat Sheer-Backed

A soft neutral weave that keeps a daytime view through the open vanes. Our most requested fabric.

Sheer-Backed — daytime view through open vanes
Light-Filtering — full daytime privacy

Eight of our thirty-plus butterfly blind fabrics are shown here. Your designer brings the full sample book to your window.

Step 2 of 3 — Vane Position

Pick your default position

Every butterfly blind moves freely between all three — this just tells us where most homeowners with your fabric tend to leave it.

Step 3 of 3 — Control

Choose how you control them

Cordless is standard in homes with children. Motorization earns its cost on tall windows and rooms you would otherwise leave shut.

☎ (682) 271-7646
What are butterfly blinds? +

Butterfly blinds are layered fabric shades whose horizontal vanes appear to float. Open, they soften daylight and keep your view; closed, they sit flat and even for full daytime privacy.

How is a butterfly blind different from a zebra blind? +

A zebra blind is woven in alternating sheer and solid bands on a single roller. A butterfly blind’s vanes are a separate layered structure that floats open for a view or closes into flat, even layers with no banding.

Can butterfly blinds be blackout? +

No. They are light-filtering to sheer, not blackout, because light still passes at the vane edges even when fully closed. Pair with a blackout roller behind for full darkness.

How much do butterfly blinds cost in DFW? +

Most butterfly blinds land between $180 and $360 per window, installed, depending on width, fabric, and control. Your quote is fixed once we have measured.

Can butterfly blinds be motorized? +

Yes. Cordless wand, motorized remote, and app or voice control are all available across every fabric in the range.
