We been working hard to remodel our house. Dave has been knocking down walls, re-building them, hanging drywall, installing cabinets, etc. While he does the heavy work, I’ve been doing my best to redecorate.
Blinds received.
That’s why when I visited Blinds Chalet and found blinds that would be perfect for our large dining room window.
We’ve always had a bit of a problem with our front window. It is big and lets a lot of light in, which doesn’t sound like a bad thing but come 3 pm and after, it feels like our dining room turns into a greenhouse. The sun sets facing our house and it just gets so warm that we can barely stand to be in the room. That makes it tough to have dinner at the table.
I was using heavy thick black out curtains to try to keep the light out and the room at a reasonable temperature. The curtains were nice but having to keep them closed in the afternoon and early evening made the house dark and dreary.
Thankfully the Good Housekeeping Shades from Blinds Chalet came to our rescue.
I love this shade because it adds such a clean look to our dining room, the color fits our decor perfectly, the style is fashionable, and it does a fantastic job of keeping the heat out while filtering the light and not darkening it.
The shade has a number of fantastic features. One of the things I like is that it folds up and becomes nearly invisible so during the early part of the day we can enjoy the full view outside our window.
I also like that it can stop anywhere along the window which allows us to enjoy both the shade and the light as much as possible.
I love the top-down feature as well. This allows us to pull the shade down from the top so that as the sun sets we can pull it down to enjoy the last bit of light in the evening without being roasted by the heat.
The double-cell feature is the smallest of the pleat sizes in the Good Housekeeping line and allows the light to filter through but still adds privacy.
Here’s a quick video showcasing the shade in action:
I love our Good Housekeeping 3/8″ Light Filtering Double Cell Shade and can’t recommend it enough to those looking for new blinds or shades for their windows. I was excited to see the reasonable prices at Blinds Chalet and can’t wait to custom order more shades for the rest of the windows in our house.
