Cordless Blinds Save Children’s Lives
Every year children die or are injured from dangling cords attached to window treatments, blinds and shades. The threat comes from kids or pets playing near window treatments where they can become entangled in the cord. While organizations are set up to help educate parents about this issue, we don't think there can be enough information about children's safety.

Let's talk faux wood blinds for a minute. I know, the holidays have just ended and money's a little tight right now. The recession isn't over and no one is throwing around money. So if you are remodeling a home, apartment or office building, or need to update your house or finish your home for sale, you might feel like you're in a bit of a pickle. You need blinds but you don't have a lot of money to spend.

All-Season Window Decorating
Most window treatments work well for a season or two, but don't function effectively in the alternate seasons.

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.

Cool Shades
Every human being is a little bit different. We all have different tastes and ideas about decorating. One of the easiest ways to change the look and feel of a room is to update window treatments.
