All-Season Window Decorating
Most window treatments work well for a season or two, but don't function effectively in the alternate seasons. When you live in climates that have four seasons, window treatments don't usually work for all four seasons, which is why layering blinds brings both a decorative quality to windows as well as a functional quality. With one installation, you can have blinds and shades that not only filter light and UV rays, but that provide excellent insulation for the cold winter months. Below are a few suggestions for layering window blinds and shades.

The beginning of the year is a great time to make updates and change now that friends and family have gone and life is getting back to normal.

About Door Blinds
Doors can sometimes be tricky to buy window treatments for because of their unusual size and shape. Not only that, door blinds shouldn't interfere with your ability to easily open and close the door. Some window treatments 'fly away,' meaning they swing out the door when it opens and get caught in it when it closes, often damaging blinds or window treatments.
