10 DRESS YOUR WINDOWS WITH A FRESH NEW BLIND

Changing your window dressings can transform the feel of a room and opting for fabric blinds can have a softening effect on a kitchen or dining space. For a very sunny window, choose a lightweight fabric so that when the blinds are down to block the glare they don’t plunge your room into darkness. A fabric with a subtle pattern will add interest without being too distracting or overbearing.
