Winter Time Blinds

Friends,

Winter time got ya down? Grey skies, cold breeze and raining most the time? Brighten the house up! Adding a white bright window decor is just the boost for Winter time blues. Faux wood blinds in white can make any room Pop! White accents always bring a smile and good cheer. Whites not your style? Go with a Natural tone. Faux blinds are available in a Natural tone also. Search Royal Trends Faux. Look for the Natural and maybe even consider the Bamboo. Lighter tones with a satin finish that scream luxury and richness.

Winter does offer wonderful things like fall football. Go watch the the old the Highschool team. Even when you don't have kids there anymore it can be great fun and excitment. Get the messy chilli cheese dog and popcorn.

This one went well for my old Home Team The Aldine High School Mustangs. Regardless to say I bet the other team wished they had some blackout cellular shades at that point. Black out honeycomb shades will block light and also can reduce the engergy cost for a home. Letting in less cold and or heat. A true white outside blends with most exterior colors and the four choices of room side colors range from Navy dark to Sand.

Winter is here. Make the most of it. Replace the old faded blinds and shades. Sometimes just changing colors is all you need for that winter boost.

Have a great wintery week.

God Bless each of you.

View Control Blinds

It's a beautiful days friends! Your in total control of the elements outside. That is to say you will be if you use the tools you have at your disposal. I am talking about the tilt control mechanism on your 2" wood blinds from wbsfactory.com

One of the biggest concerns today with window treatments is " energy cost, loss and gain" to you realize that you have control over this issue? It is winter time. We want to block the cold from our homes. Reduce the cool air from around the windows. One thing to remember is that you have tools for this. The tilt control on your window blinds will allow you to control the light as well as the view. Closing the blinds at night is common to control the outside view into your home. Tilting the blinds open during the day allows you to see the wonderful sunshine and happenings outside. Also consider the angle at which the blinds are tilted. Winter can be harsh, yet on bright sunny days we can use the warmth of the suns rays to our advantage. Tilting the blinds at a downward angle will allow the suns energy to be directed onto the rooms floor. Heat rises and the same warm will penetrate both floor material and then rise to warm the room in general. If you have a favorite chair next to a window opening, the light and warmth are excellant for warming the body as well as the room and maybe enjoy the first cup of coffee for the day.

Often we overlook the advantage of the tools that our window fashions come with. We can lift the blinds, tilt the blinds, angle up or down. Raise up and lower down to a height that benefits us regardless of the outside environment.

I recommend a wand tilter for your window blinds. The wand is easy to twist left or right therefore allowing that just right light warmth atmosphere. Wands are color coated and or stained to match the blind product you purchase and in most cases can be placed on the right or left side as you choose. Cord tilt will allow the same control should you prefer the two cord look to balance out the lifting cord (standard for all blinds).

Consider your options when puchasing new wood window blinds. Heck, consider the options you may already have and not be using.

Have a great day! Blessings
