window blinds/shades

9 years ago

Do all windows have to match? One window faces the front of our house, the other window faces the side. On all of the front windows, I have mini-blinds, so I'll probably get a new mini-blind for there. On the side window, I'd like to get a pleated shade. Your thoughts.

Is the room that you want the pleated shade in one that has mini-blinds in other window/s? I wouldn't mix them in the same room, but if it's a separate room, I wouldn't mind.

From the outside, I think you can mix treatments as long as they are the same approximate color. From the inside, I agree with My3dogs.
