Window Blinds Info and Tips

Jane asked:


I just got new retro-fit windows in my house and I love them! But now my old blinds don’t fit anymore. That’s okay because I was ready for a change anyway.

I would like to order white wood or faux-wood blinds for many of the windows. Where is the best place to get them? I have looked at blinds.com and that looks good, and I am thinking about having Budget Blinds come out and give me an estimate.

Has anyone had any good or bad experience with either of these companies, or any other nationally operating companies? Thanks for any suggestions!

Our contractor gave us wrong measurements for our Levolor blinds, which we had custom made (about $5000 worth!). Is an outside mount a possibility or is there any other way (without returning them) to install them? We’re tired of our neighbors seeing us naked!!
