I'm a Snob

Not my dining room...wish it were!

Oh how I love my blinds…well, some of them.

On four of our windows, we have those wonderful cloth horizontal blinds. You know, the ones that filter that morning light into your room in such a way that makes you feel like you are being gently kissed by the sun…not poked with piercing rays that cause you to roll back over and bury your head under your pillow. Really, I do love those blinds…..

On the other windows, we have the plain ol’ blinds that have to be dusted all the time. And in our house, the slats are always wonky where someone has bent them during a brawl.

I didn’t mean to become a "blind" snob but I have…and now no other blinds will do….sigh….I need therapy…

Low Maintenance Blinds

We have always had cheap, inexpensive blinds on our windows. A couple of months ago, we were given four high-quality blinds. What a treat! These blinds are just so nice and really add a lot of style to our rooms.

Our blinds are similar to the roller blinds that you can find at Terry’s Fabrics. What I like best about roller blinds is that they are low maintenance…this means no more cleaning individual slats!! All you do is wipe down the blinds with a damp sponge. Think of the cleaning time you will save!

There are many different styles of roller blind available in prints, solids, bordered print and suede fabrics. And of course, when you add some decorative trim to your blinds, you have even more stylish window treatments. Personally, I love the Urban Roller Blind in Blue…very modern!

If roller blinds are not your style, several other types of blinds are available such as Roman blinds, Venetian blinds, Vertical Blinds and more!
