So Easy Blinds offers 115 colour in its Aluminium Venetian range - Cream - with 25mm slats cut to your exact window dimensions and a starting price of £35.18. It is a no-frills, made-to-measure venetian in aluminium, aimed at anyone who wants reliable light control without paying for decorative finishes they don't need. The 25mm slat width is the industry standard for aluminium venetians: narrow enough to stack neatly when raised, wide enough to tilt and block direct glare effectively.

Who it suits

Aluminium venetians are the practical choice for rooms where moisture resistance and easy cleaning matter more than visual warmth. Kitchens and bathrooms are the natural home for a range like this: the slats wipe clean with a damp cloth, the aluminium won't warp or discolour from steam, and the tilt mechanism gives you precise control over how much light enters without raising the whole blind.

Living rooms and bedrooms are less obvious fits. The 25mm aluminium slat is a utilitarian size and finish - functional rather than decorative - so if the room calls for something softer or more textured, a faux-wood venetian or a Roman blind in a warmer fabric is worth considering instead. That said, if you're fitting into a home office or a utility room where practicality is the priority, the aluminium slat does the job without fuss.

The Cream shade is a neutral that works without calling attention to itself. It will sit alongside white or off-white window frames without clashing, and the light tone means the blind reflects rather than absorbs daylight when the slats are open. For cord safety, check the specific fitting options available at checkout - modern venetians are required by UK regulations to include cord-safe mechanisms such as breakaway connectors or a wand control, which is worth confirming before ordering for a children's room.

The finishes

115 colours available

The range offers a single finish: Cream. That's a deliberate, tight edit rather than a palette - if you need a darker or bolder colour for a specific scheme, this range won't accommodate it. For those fitting a cream or white-painted room, however, the match will likely be close enough that the blind reads as background rather than feature.

Price by your dimensions

Enter your window size. We round up to the next standard size, which matches how the retailer actually quotes you.

At £35.18 from, this sits at the entry-level end of the made-to-measure venetian market. The price will increase with width and drop, as is standard for any made-to-measure product - the widget above reflects what a range of common sizes actually costs, so you can check your specific dimensions before ordering.

How it compares

Against other aluminium venetians on the market, the single-colour offering is a meaningful limitation if your scheme requires more choice. Retailers who carry a broader aluminium venetian range will give you charcoal, silver, or white alongside cream, which can matter when matching a kitchen's colour scheme.

Where this range competes well is on simplicity: one clear option, a transparent price, and a straightforward made-to-measure process. If you're fitting multiple identical windows - a row of bathroom windows above a bathtub, for example - the limited palette is less of a constraint.

Faux-wood venetians at the 50mm slat width offer a warmer, more living-room-appropriate look for a modest premium. Real-wood venetians step up further in cost and styling but should not be used in bathrooms or other high-humidity rooms. For anyone whose priority is moisture tolerance and easy maintenance, aluminium remains the sensible material choice, and this range delivers exactly that.

A note on care

Aluminium slats should be wiped with a damp cloth; a mild detergent will handle kitchen grease without damaging the finish. Avoid abrasive cloths, which can scratch the slat surface. There is no need to remove the blind for cleaning - working slat by slat with a cloth is the standard approach, and it is quicker than it sounds once you have done it a few times.

Likely the same fabric, at other retailers

Aluminium Venetian venetian blinds are sold under the same name by more than one UK retailer, and the price scales identically across window sizes - a strong sign it is the same fabric from the same supplier:

  • Make My Blinds from £5.13
  • Swift Direct Blinds from £6.71
  • So Easy Blinds this page from £35.18
  • Blinds By Post from £37.00

We match these on the shared name and an identical price curve, not an independent inspection, so treat it as likely the same fabric rather than confirmed - and check the specification and colour at each retailer before buying.
