			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many people are still surprised to discover that bamboo is actually being used to make fabrics.  People often misrepresent bamboo as a wood, however, it really is a type of grass.  And because it grows at such a rapid rate, it is a very eco friendly resource that actually serves well at making products that hardwood would normally make.  Bamboo curtains are starting to become very popular because of their eco friendliness as well as their attractiveness once completed.</p>
<p>A bamboo curtain is generally made from natural bamboo beads, which are strung together with wire, hence the term &#8220;bamboo beaded curtains&#8221;.  The curtains are hung from a frame, and are popularly used on windows, walls and doorways.  Traditionally, they are made and designed in one of two ways: 1. the threads are woven into a curtain, creating whichever pattern or design is needed, or 2. paint is applied to the curtain with Chinese ink actually after the threads have been woven.</p>
<p>Bamboo curtains are great to use and offer great benefits compared to curtains made from other fabrics.  In fact, many department stores and home furnishing depots have started to put out their own line of bamboo products, including curtains.  Take a look at some of the benefits of using bamboo curtains:</p>
<p>Affordable &#8212; Compared to fabrics made of synthetic materials or other non-natural, bamboo curtains are very affordable.  Because bamboo is widely available and is not an endangered resource, it can be accessed at much cheaper prices than hardwood.</p>
<p>Durable &#8212; Durability is without question with bamboo curtains.  They can be washed and cleaned in the washing machine with regular detergent and still have a very long life span.</p>
<p>Easy to install &#8212; Bamboo curtains do not require any fancy drapery rods or any such thing.  In fact, the traditional types are installed by screwing two screws into the wall and hanging the curtains from the frame.</p>
<p>Safe &#8212; When used as wall posters, bamboo curtains are quite attractive, not to mention safe for kids.  Kids are actually quite fascinated by the designs on bamboo curtains, and parents do not have to worry about whether or not the Chinese ink used on the bamboo can cause any harm to the kids.</p>
<p>If your mission is to do your part to preserve the environment while maintaining an aesthetically pleasing home space, then you should consider bamboo curtains as well as other fabrics made from this renewable resource.  You certainly will be doing your part to make the Earth greener and a better place to live.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bamboo is a renewable resource that is now popularly used to make all sorts of furniture and other products.  It is now even more popular than ever because more and more people are realizing that it can be harvested quicker without causing harm to the environment.  One popular product that bamboo is used to make are bamboo window shades, which are becoming increasingly popular in the Western market.</p>
<p>Bamboo shades are typically used in window spaces or doorways to create an aesthetically appealing appearance.  They are usually woven with lightweight materials made from bamboo, reed, rattan or jutes.  However, the most environmentally friendly material of the lot is bamboo.  There are several benefits to using a bamboo shade in the home as opposed to regular curtains made from synthetic fabrics.  These include:</p>
<p>Appearance &#8212; Bamboo shades create a textured and natural look and give the home space a very rustic and natural attractiveness.  You won’t have to worry about changing them every week because they continue to look good for whatever length of time you have them up.</p>
<p>Affordability &#8212; Bamboo shades cost a lot less than synthetic fabrics used to make drapes and curtains.  They are also much cheaper than regular blinds people use for window spaces.  Using a natural resource versus a man made product is certainly much better for the environment.</p>
<p>Low Maintenance &#8212; The beauty of bamboo shades is that they require very little maintenance.  All that they require from time to time is some dusting with a feathered duster.</p>
<p>Durability &#8212; Bamboo has been known to be durable and able to resist and withstand weather conditions.  That is also the case in their byproducts like bamboo shades, which do very well when beaten by the harsh sunlight.</p>
<p>Luck and Energy &#8212; Ancient people from Asian countries believe wholeheartedly in the luck and energy factor behind bamboo.  They believe the material brings great luck to whomever uses it in their space and also produces great energy.</p>
<p>Bamboo shades come in various styles and colors, depending on where you purchase them from.  Some also come with valance options to give the look of a complete window treatment.  There are also some that have liners to provide insulation and added privacy.</p>
<p>The natural appearance and simplicity of bamboo shades will make any space attractive and welcoming.  Not to mention, you will be contributing positively to the environment by using products that have absolutely no negative impact whatsoever.</p>
