Well, THAT didn't work out. The window was too shallow and the decorative molding on the casing prevented installation. What did that leave me with? A useless blind I couldn't take back (it had been cut to size).
But, one of my readers (Hi, Julie!) suggested we try a place online--and that they'd even send samples for color. So, we ordered one -- and today it SHOULD arrive. (It was shipped last week.) The blind was at LEAST $100 cheaper than the ones we saw at Home Depot and with free shipping.
Oh, how I'm looking forward to that installation. You see, I've had my desk pulled away from the wall and a stepladder standing in front of the window since June 22nd. That means I trip over the chair, the printer, the fan and my little work table on almost an hourly basis.
Yup, when the UPS man arrives today I may just throw my arms around him and kiss him. SWAK!
I just know I'm going to love my new blinds!
Sure hope the new blind works.
ReplyDeleteWell, we know what Brown is going to do for you. Just don't love on him too long that he misses delivering my daughter's market tote, please. : )
ReplyDeleteHope the blinds work for you.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about the blind, but the UPS guy is sure going to be happy. :D
ReplyDeleteLook forward to hearing good news about your blind fitting in the window and keeping you cool.
ReplyDeleteHave a good Monday.
I'm sure it will work this time.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Frank should answer the door? ::GRIN::
ReplyDeleteHow are the blinds. I was lazy and got black out curtains at walmart. They work just fine.
ReplyDeleteThe blinds were supposed to be delivered on Monday. Guess what??? Maybe they'll arrive today. (And maybe they won't.)
