Honeycomb blinds
Honeycomb blinds, also called cellular blinds, are made of pleated fabric that forms hexagon-shaped air pockets. The trapped air insulates the window, helping keep rooms cooler in summer and warmer in winter. They come in light-filtering and blockout fabrics and can be made to open top-down or bottom-up.

Questions about honeycomb blinds
Do honeycomb blinds really insulate?
Yes. The air trapped in the cells slows heat moving through the window, which is why they're often chosen for north- and west-facing rooms.
How do you clean honeycomb blinds?
Vacuum them gently with a brush attachment and blow dust out of the cells with a hairdryer on a cool setting. Don't soak them.
