So, how do you skip past the obvious NO\u2019s to discover the perfect window shade for your style, your room, your lifestyle, and your budget? Consider a few tips to point you in the right direction by marking options off your list one by one (or by entire category).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pinpoint Window Shade Features You Cannot Live Without:\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We suggest starting by pinpointing any features you are not willing to go without. For example, do you require a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindschalet.com\/upgrade-1-1007-cordless.html\">cordless lift option<\/a>? Do you need a window covering impervious to water? Are you looking for an option that is compatible with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindschalet.com\/upgrade-1-1097-smarthome.html\">motorization or smart home options<\/a>? Make a list of the features you require first so you don\u2019t accidentally get attached to a product that doesn\u2019t meet your minimum requirements. Once you do this, you may find it easier to define what it is you are hoping to find.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consider the Style of Your Room and Compare to Window Covering Styles Available:\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consider your space. Is there a certain style of window covering that particularly suits the room, the window, your decor, or your personal tastes? If you aren\u2019t sure where to start or don\u2019t feel like you have any particular preferences that would mean certain types of window coverings are not a good option, consider this series of questions:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do you prefer blinds or shades?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do you prefer a certain style of shade? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindschalet.com\/window-shades\/romanshades.html\">(custom quality Roman shades<\/a>, roller shades, etc.)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do you prefer fabric products, wood products, faux wood products, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindschalet.com\/window-shades\/bambooshades.html\">natural woven window covering products<\/a>?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do you have any problems areas or problem windows that may require special features or special treatment? (a glare in your tv room, privacy issues, etc.)\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bring Your Questions to One of Our Design Consultants:\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Deciding to order custom blinds or shades means you\u2019ll have some decisions to make. Excluding the options and categories that don\u2019t meet your needs is a big help that will get your started in the right direction. Once you\u2019ve excluded those options that don\u2019t suit, it\u2019s a great idea to take advantage of our Design Consultants to whittle down the choices. Come to the Design Consultants with your list of feature requirements paired with any problem windows or light issues in your space you hope to address with your window coverings. The Design Consultants can take your concerns along with your preferred style choices, and necessary features to point you towards the best options.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Order Samples of Your Final Window Shades or Blinds Choices:\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ordering free samples* of your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindschalet.com\/shades.aspx\">top window shades<\/a> and window blind choices is easy. Ordering samples means you can compare the quality and feel of the materials used for the different products you\u2019re considering for yourself.

She graduated from the American Institute of Interior Design in 2007 and has been working with Blinds Chalet ever since. During her time in school, she worked with several interior design companies locally in Scottsdale, Arizona in order to accelerate her learning and gain experience.
