Blinds & Drapery - Let Light In & Block Light Out!

Blinds come in all types and materials from Roman Shades, pleated paper, wooden plantation shutters and many more. There are even fancier types of the "old-fashioned" roll up blinds that you can get in custom and standard lengths. What you have to consider is how long do you want them to last, and what is the sunlight situation, and will they get a lot of wear and tear from little fingers? Be sure that any blinds that you purchase if you have small children in your home, do not have dangling cords, as that can be very dangerous for children. Drapes and curtains come in a vast array of styles and lengths and widths and mounting methods. If you have hardware showing at the top of your drapes you can hide it with a solid or fabric valance. Lined draperies are always good if you want to block light. Check out cleaning methods before you purchase window coverings. Some are only dry-cleanable and you want to be sure because if you have any chemically-sensitive family members, dry-cleaning will probably make them sneeze!
