The panels are operated by cord, wand or motor and can be all drawn to one side or split in the centre.<br /><br />If you have a contemporary or Japanese theme in mind for a room then the Japanese Sliding Panels will fit in beautifully with that scheme.<br /><br />Panel blinds can also be used as a room divider because they can be made so wide. I have even seen a 30ft expanse with two panel tracks nicely fitted together to look like one!<br /><br />Japanese Sliding Panel Blinds can be purchased from <a href="http://www.japanesepanels.co.uk/" target="_blank">JapanesePanels.co.uk</a><br /><br /></span></span>Blinds Watcherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09470331424318325971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1539423132424735087.post-16029667732618072652007-06-24T10:14:00.000+01:002007-06-24T10:57:56.748+01:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_aqcs8e0Dl0A/Rn42gjUCctI/AAAAAAAAAAU/tzT5MYqhOZY/s1600-h/ono_main.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_aqcs8e0Dl0A/Rn42gjUCctI/AAAAAAAAAAU/tzT5MYqhOZY/s320/ono_main.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5079557362583499474" border="0" /></a>Years ago all you could buy were nasty fibreglass blinds that may have been white for a very short time, but soon after became dirty, dingy and grey.<br /><br />Over time, there came more selection of colours, better fabrics; fibreglass usage became almost obsolete, but still we think of vertical blinds as 'office block' blinds.<br /><br />Let's face it - given the choice of styles available from most online blinds shops, you'd be forgiven for associating them with industrial units!<br /><br />Has the blinds manufacturing industry given up with verticals? Will they disappear from the domestic market all together soon?<br /><br />Apparently not if you browse through <a href="http://www.newhousetextiles.co.uk/vertical/whites.php" title="New House Textiles vertical blinds are exciting, with a contemporary feel"> New House Textiles online store!</a><br /><br />At New House Textiles you will find simple, elegant designs, pretty florals, chunky textures & geometric designs. Not only commited to good design, many of the natural fibres in their fabrics come from Texan farms, where cotton is grown with the minimum use of chemicals.<br /><br />So have vertical blinds evolved? I think so! New House Textiles have managed to make vertical blinds look contemporary &amp; appealing for the modern home.<br /><br />Stockist information for New House Textiles products can be found here: <a href="http://www.newhousetextiles.co.uk/stockists.php?f=2" title="Click here for stockists in your area">Stockists in your area</a><a><br /><br /><br /></a>Blinds Watcherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09470331424318325971noreply@blogger.com
