So, I've repainted my master bedroom. Time to dump that old curtain and

some ideas and ended up taking to someone for a rough estimate...


$800+ for ONE 54"x54" window? Granted they were nice dual function cellular
shades, but the material might be worth about $5... SHEESH!


OK, you've got me concerned now. I just came back from my local Lowes
home center with information on how to measure my windows for those
cellular blinds. Mine shouldn't be that expensive, but I've been
bracing for sticker shock anyway.

I'm looking at the cordless cellular blinds and the roman shades. I'm
sure that the ones I finally choose are going to be the most
expensive. I'm just tired of the bland mini-blinds that I have had in
the house since I bought it. This place needs some jazzing up.

Sigh...
