Home Sales and Wood Blinds

The sagging economy which we all know encompasses slow home sales has us all concerned. Folks, we have to look to the past,our history tells us we all endure tough times. Regardless who we think causes these times we know all cultures and nations and peoples endure downfalls. Your home is no different than your 401K. It is an asset that may at present seem to have lost it's zeal, it's zest...or maybe just it's place in your heart as the apple of your financial eye. Remember, it is in the down falls that we have opportunity to enhance, fix up and make these assets better so that when the economy turns to our favor again............we are ready!

As quick as home sales went down, they will return. We must be ready knowing that our perspective buyers will want turn key properties with great wood blinds and or shades that are to die for. By the time the media tells us things are better, it will be too late to grab those lower prices and already have the Roman shades installed.

Not intent on selling the family estate? Well, same thing applies. While the market is down, now is the best time to remodel, refurbish....HECK....just update the tired old thing. Enjoy it before you sell it!

My friends, things in these United States are about to turn and get better. Keep in mind that new window decor can not only embellish your home sale, but also please you and after all.....who are we each trying to please. Try it before you sell it, may be a new catch phrase. Enjoy the cost of the purchase for your new cellular shades, reduce heat cost and all while waiting for that short to come time when homes sales return and your purchase was not only enjoyable for the familiy, yet also a great enhancement to your the owner of your castle.

Just some thoughts from my own sorted past which remind me as well, MAKE improvements NOW! Don't wait for the main stream to tell us what to do.

Live carefully and enjoy life. Love your neighbor as yourself.

Energy Efficient Cellular Shades

Okay, this one bears repeating. Honeycomb cellular shades. Those wonderful 1/2", 3/4" and 3/8 inch fabric wonders that come in so many different colors and styles.The window treatment you will want if trying to reduce cold for this winter. A perfect fix for not so well insulated windows and a fine addition for the energy saving window you may have or have added already. The chart below gives the basic low down on the R rating you can expect with the cellular window covering types.

Feature/Benefit Chart for Honeycomb/Cellular Shades
Product Lines
Product/Feature R-Value
1/2" Single Cell Fabric 3.20
3/8" Double Cell Fabric 4.60
3/4" Single Cell Fabric 3.60
3/4" Single Cell Blackout 5.00

Energy savings are important these days, but remember the honeycomb shades like most shades raises from the bottom up. Now, a top down feature is available in some sizes. Please check available options to see if the topdown and or bottom up option is featured in the shade you are looking for.

No one knows what this winter will hold, but we all know higher electric cost will continue regardless of the temperatures.

Wishing you all the best!

Turkey with a View

Hey Ya'll,

Thanksgiving is near and you'll need to order those shades and blinds now to get them installed by the long weekend. Despite what many think we don't offer many off the shelf cut down window treatments. Your real wood blind and shades both cellular and woven wood are custom made. Made to fit the size you request on your order. We do have some express products that ship faster because they are not custom made. Our main line here is to furnish your home with a special made window fashion that you will love for a long time.

Turkey legs are great til you have one in hand and a nut driver in the other hand trying to install those Holiday blinds for the guest. I certainly don't need to remind anyone what the wife will be telling you should you delay in the ordering process.

Don't forget those cellular (honeycomb) shades for the added insulation this winter. Just as in the summer the Honeycomb window treatment offers an Rvalue that will reduce heat and cold penetration. Please vist our products segment of the website and click factory specifications for the R value information on the cellular shades.

Don't get too excited we still have some time remaining for ordering and installation of the perfect Holiday window decor. Do, be ready in advance to ensure perfect Holiday atmosphere, peace in the home and visit your quest will not forget as they inquire as to where your blinds and shades were made.
