Blinds and Shades Becoming Art

Considering window treatments as art may seem like a strange thing to do, but if you really think about it, it makes a lot of sense. Windows are a huge part of any room. They let light in, they affect how bright a room is, how comfortable a room is depending on how energy efficient they are and more. Some people may be in the market for new blinds and others may be remodeling after purchasing a new home.

SlumberShades

Some of us have a good night's sleep every night, but others of us struggle with light sensitivity from street lamps, or the inability to sleep during the day. Those with night jobs often struggle to get 8 - 10 hours of sleep, the recommended amount of time needed for a good night's sleep, as their bodies are telling them they should be awake with the sun. New shades have hit the market to help resolve this problem. They are called SlumberShades and they block light from windows, using an innovative sidetrack system. According to the National Sleep Foundation, the best night's sleep comes from a dark, quiet, comfortable atmosphere.

The problem is, kids and pets can get their necks caught in these cords or blinds and severe damage or death can result. There are organizations working to spread awareness, however, we feel you can never put out enough information on a topic like this.

Buy Faux Wood Blinds

A lot of people have been talking about faux wood blinds. Why? Because these are like the cheap cousin to wood blinds. They look the same, act the same, actually, they are even easier to maintain than real wood blinds and cost only a fraction of the price. We know everyone is looking to save some money after the holidays but repairs need to be made and upgrades need to happen. What better way to start your year off than with a fantastic looking house where you can entertain as much as you like!
