Top down bottom up blinds let you keep the bottom half closed where pedestrians could peer in and open the top half letting unfiltered light pour in.
Should blinds be closed down or up bottom floor.
The convex side faces the window creating less space through which to view.
I ve ordered 10 sets of blinds from them over the years.
I don t see the point in those i have the double cellular 3 8 in charcoal.
The truth is to make your shade flow with everything else in the room.
So far they still go up and down without a problem but i don t use them every day.
Blinds turned down it may make it easier for peeps to peep in.
You say if i get all those 3 things right and i will have complete top down bottom up blinds.
The truth about top down bottom up blinds.
What you could do is put up two shades.
This is a very contentious issue in my household.
First floor rooms and ground level apartments.
Place a mark on the wall where the headrail should go.
The bottom rail should be at least 2 1 4 inches from the floor and 1 7 8 inches from the window sill.
The direction up or down to close blind slats is a matter of personal preference but if you want more privacy tilt them up with the rounded side facing out.
One at the midpoint of the window to provide privacy and then a top shade that could be pulled down up to block or let in light.
They should be spaced evenly apart and 4 inches from the end.
But a great window treatment becomes part of your home s architecture.
When choosing blinds or indoor shutters splurge for wood or faux wood varieties with wide slats.
Tilt them down and the blinds look softer and arguably better.
I say it depends.
Sometimes i ll open the shade above my a c as the a c will block the view into my room from the street.
Yes i have two of them in my sons room.
I keep the shades closed for the most part.
Mark the bracket positions on the bottom of the headrail with a pencil.
These upscale treatments may cost more up front but they can actually increase the value of your home in the long run.
Just standard tho not the half open feature.
Yes the truth is the desire to bring elegance to your décor.
A good window treatment adds style.
Top down bottom up blinds let you block out.
