We had a large window measured yesterday for roman shades by Hunter Douglas and I'm so excited for them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blinds-for-windows#post-2032147 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 10:13:43 +0000 Anagram 2032147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Emsmems: We have the same ones, and I like them since they can open from the bottom up or the top down. But we still have curtains too, because I feel like a room looks more finished with curtains. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blinds-for-windows#post-2032125 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 09:57:46 +0000 Mamaof2 2032125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted them all the same thru the house so we got Bamboo wooden roman shades from JCPenny's </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blinds-for-windows#post-2032119 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 09:51:42 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2032119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i bought cheap ones from lowes for our bedroom but they look great, and blackout ones that look similar from selectblinds for the kids' rooms. they really do a great job of blocking out light!</p> <p><a href="http://www.selectblinds.com/bambooblinds/tropical-isle-basic-shades.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.selectblinds.com/bambooblinds/tropical-isle-basic-shades.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blinds-for-windows#post-2032100 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 09:31:04 +0000 dagret 2032100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have custom roman shades from JC Penney in all of our rooms except our bedroom (so far.) We only have 1 standard sized window in our house - in the bathroom. Our sliding glass door has the blinds sandwiched in between glass and i love them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blinds-for-windows#post-2032090 Tue, 20 Jan 2015 09:22:45 +0000 looch 2032090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have different stuff in different parts of the house.</p> <p>In our living room, which faces the street, we have bamboo blinds. In our bedrooms, we have thermal cordless roman shades.</p> <p>I personally don't like mini blinds unless they're the kind that are sandwiched between the glass. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blinds-for-windows#post-2031582 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 19:21:00 +0000 regberadaisy 2031582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have "white" faux wood blinds. I love them and they were a splurge. LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blinds-for-windows#post-2031536 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 18:48:40 +0000 Smurfette 2031536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got ours at Home Depot. The fake wooden white ones. Only the 2" would fit. One day we want plantation shudders. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blinds-for-windows#post-2031506 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 18:15:04 +0000 PrincessBaby 2031506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have plantation shutters in our whole house and I luuuurve them. I don't know if that's in the same realm as blinds but they're awesome! I feel like even though they were pricey, they made things so much easier bc I never had to worry about drapes or anything. They look really nice on their own. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blinds-for-windows#post-2031485 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 18:02:51 +0000 Emsmems 2031485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our house already had Hunter Douglas window treatments that are sooo nice! I don't think we would have been able to afford to put them in, and I don't know what your budget is like, but they are awesome! Color doesn't really matter in their case, they are just light white and sheer.</p> <p>Like this: </p> [attach=3237/15/nig5cr.600x337.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blinds-for-windows#post-2031457 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 17:46:33 +0000 coopsmama 2031457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have someone coming out today to give an estimate on blinds for our new house! I'm so excited to get them in - I'm already sick of the lack of privacy without them and we've only been living here since Thursday. :silly: </p> <p>What kind of blinds do you have? Do you like/would you recommend them? </p> <p>We have dark wood trim in this house and it's making me a little unsure how to proceed with blinds. If you had dark trim, what would you do? </p>
