I was just in Salt Lake City, Utah on a mini vacation and the place we stayed had really bad blinds that didn’t close properly and were just junky looking. I notice these kinds of things, so I was inspired to write a post about how to make your guest room (or your lodge) more welcoming and restful with the right kinds of blinds or shades.
Handling challenging windows
While the average person doesn’t stop to scrutinize the quality or safety of window blinds in one’s own home, if there are children or pets in the home, it’s time to start.
In the heat of Arizona, many homeowners shy away from the warmer colors for home décor, opting instead for cool whites and neutrals. But we suggest pairing this year’s hottest color, Tangerine with its opposite, aqua for a fantastic color combination that is on-trend and beautiful when done well.
Designing your room is the fun part, but it pays to be a bit technical in the beginning and know what type of window frame you have before you start shopping for blinds. For example, more traditional homes in areas like Massachusetts will often have beautiful wood trim windows that can complicate the installation process.
Today, I thought I’d share a question about shades and blinds from a customer in New Jersey, because it addresses a very common issue with customers across the country.
This time of year, our Blindsgalore Texas customers have a real challenge keeping their homes cool, and we sell a lot of solar shades there. But there are some other ideas to help Texas homes stay cooler.
In California, being stylish is important, whether it’s in fashion, cars, accessories or home furnishings. Even window shades are a fashion statement on the west coast, but function is still the primary consideration.
One of the most asked about products at Blindsgalore is skylight shades, and we sell a lot of them to our Florida customers. If your Florida home has skylights, you know that skylights are somewhat of a good news/bad news feature.
