The trick to Wooden Venetian blinds is in the preparation. When the blinds have been installed and you have finished admiring them, it’s worth giving them a good polish with a wax based polish. This helps to protect the timber and the richness of colour. The wax in the polish builds up a protective layer which will repel any splashes or marks. This means that as long as this is done fairly routinely, once every three months or so, all you will need to do in the meantime is a little dusting.

I use a special blind dusting device on my 50mm wooden blinds. I just slide it along the slats. It can be quite therapeutic! The blind cleaner is available from:

Hope that's helpful.
