>> Download Product Guides On April 30, 2026, we will be launching new fabrics for our Outdoor Shade Collection. In the updated collection, you will find 17 new fabrics including 1% and 3% openness factors as well as 5% two-tone options. New Sample Books & UpdatesIf you've ordered a book and are waiting for it to arrive, your new book will include the full fabric assortment, including both existing fabrics and our new options. If you already have a book, complimentary update packs will be automatically provided to you. Update packs will include the new fabrics along with a new binder, allowing you to transfer your existing fabrics to the new binder. All sampling items will begin shipping next week, and tracking will be provided once shipped. Note: While motorized control was initially planned as part of this launch, we are fine-tuning that option to ensure it meets our performance standards. We’ll share the expected launch timing as soon as it’s available. As of April 8th, all Cordless Natural Roller Shades with a cassette top treatment will ship automatically with an attached hem clip. The clips are made of white, flexible plastic that keeps the hem bar securely in place during transit, preventing it from rolling back into the cassette. The clip must be removed before installation. See the video below for a demonstration of how to remove the hem clip. >> Watch Removal Video
