Everyone recognizes window blinds for their convenience and effectiveness as a window covering, but it is time to learn to enjoy those window blinds. Old fashioned blinds were thick 4 slats made of metal and sometimes were difficult to use. They looked rather clinical and were heavy. Most were mounted at the top of the window.Today, there is a great variety of window blind styles.

Set them at an upwards angle to benefit from a wonderful diffused bounce lighting effect.When window blinds feature vertical, rather than horizontal slats, the tall vertical slats can be adjusted to either side or in the middle to allow lighting into a room. If the sun is on the right side of the window, adjust the slats to block the direct sun but allow light to come in from the other side. This prevents sun fading on rugs or furniture and still allows plenty of light into the room.Some horizontal window blinds are set like a roller shade to roll up or down. This is a way to control light and privacy in a room. The vertical blinds can be opened from the center or pull to either side. This allows for privacy and light control.Slats have improved over the years, moving away from metal and into plastic, vinyl, wooden or fabric covered slats. There are lightweight translucent slats for maximum lighting. Fabric covered and wooden slats provide the maximum effect for insulation, sound control and room darkening. Thin and colored slats give a modern decorator look to rooms.Window blinds can be mounted within a window or outside the frame to make a window seem larger. They can be full length to the floor even over a shorter, higher window area. This also makes the window area seem to be larger than it actually is. Some very wide window blinds have an automatic mechanism for rolling them up with ease. Enjoy window blinds and their versatility!
