Q: Patio door - covering ideas?
Hi,
I am looking for some house decorating tips. Specifically, what kind of window covering to use for our patio door that looks like this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/84914799@N00/ It's a pretty typical sliding patio door. As you can see, it's in the kitchen, and it backs out to our backyard/patio. Left to the patio door and behind the fridge (not visible in the pic) is another door that leads to the garage. The patio door is eastern exposure, so I definitely want some kind of covering because (a) I don't want the morning hot Colorado sun beating on the fridge, (b) For privacy. So I'm trying to think what my options are. Vertical blinds are out of the questions, as I hate those. Basically, I'm looking for something that would be easy to quickly pull open and close, and that would still allow quick and easy access to the patio door when I want to go outside. Oh, and it's got to be something that my cats wouldn't tear apart. So far, the only idea that I've come up with is regular curtain rod and curtains. I would appreciate any feedback or advice. Thanks, Bubba P.S. Please let me know if there is a better newsgroup to post this to. |

I have the g*d****d vertical blinds and they look silly, probably cause
I have a 3-panel-wide door, 2 of which do nothing except leak heat in the winter. I like the sugegstion above though, curtain over the unused side. Don't you worry about that plate falling off your fridge ?! |

Thanks for your feedback. I'm having trouble visualizing your design, though :) Would you be able to post a pic? Cheers |
