roxy shopping for new blinds: "Why can't I find pink ones anymore?"

voice of reason: "Because TheEighties are thankfully no more...bless its little heart."

When we moved into this house, the master bedroom had pink miniblinds. The walls are creamy ivory, and the sun through the blinds just gave the whole room this rosy glow. I replaced the miniblinds with a down-up cellular shade, and I picked a slightly blushed ivory--same rosy effect. Of course this is the same shade that's lit up like a drive-in screen every night by the neighbors' kleigporch light, but otherwise, it's really pretty and cheerful.

wow...I bet that is a nice effect until your neighbors lights come on! Mine would have had a rosy glow too, I'm sure, but the builders of this particular house made certain, with scientific accuracy, that no natural light reached any room of the house. We run lights all day long.

Never buy a house that you've only seen on winter nights....

I'm confused

If you don't get any natural light, why get blinds instead of curtains?

So people can't see me! I can't have people peeking in my windows! I need the assurance of blinds *and* curtains, to protect myself against people like....me. *koff*

Well, I suppose if you really want pink, you could get white blinds and paint them. :)
