These things can be pretty pricy. I know there’s places to order online but not sure about quality. Looking for some good recommendations

Used blinds.com recently for one of my air bnbs. Order went perfect and they run some pretty good coupons.

I like my Levolor blinds from Lowe's. They're the ones that you pull up and down by hand instead of with a string which is neat.

Have the same. They will come out and measure your house, and then just wait until they go on sale and pull the trigger.

Come to your house? Do you know how easy that is to do?

I mean I measured myself and bought directly from the one Lowe's in BR that had a cutting machine. Easy job.

Measure the top/middle/bottom and do no more than 3/4" less than the widest section if you want to put them on the inside.

Do width of longest section if mounting above window.

Super easy, they will replace for free if they don't fit, always some sort of sale going on

I just recently moved and had about 14 windows done. Some plantation style shutters for my front facing windows, fabric roman shades for the bedrooms, and woven wood shades for the living room and dining room/kitchen and kitchen patio door.

I used both blinds.com and blindster because of some different materials I liked and are very pleased with the quality of each. Do yourself a favor and get a bunch of free samples of whatever you want. I think I spent around 5k total.

I measured and installed my own. Pretty simple process if you can work a drill, tape measure, level.

K to Z window coverings in Denham. They did a great job on our house.

Budget blinds is really good, and the local New Orleans rep is really friendly and not pushy.
