White. Gray will look dated very quickly.

Some shade of white. When we had ours installed, someone came to the house with a swatch/sample book so that we could see how the colours looked with our trim and wall paint. See if that's an option, and if it is, get all your painting done before you set up that consult.

I would match the trim. White will be too bright. Off the shelf might not be possible due to window sizes

White

My question is what do you need from the blinds i like solar shades to control heat , UV let you keep the view and give you day time privacy then I use drapes or roman shades for nightime privacy if needed . First get all the cleaning and painting done then come bask with pics of th spaces and maybe you only need drapes in a small number of those spaces . A puc of one window is just not enogh IMO to answer this question

I'm trying to just get something simple and easy done this week before we start showing the house to potential renters, so it sort of has to be an off the shelf solution we can do quickly. From what I've seen, that means an off the shelf product from Lowes or Home Depot in either White, Grey or Alabaster. I think we just need light filtering and preferably double celled if I can get it to help with cold winter months. I'm not as worried about heat. I'm also trying to avoid drapes to make the house more open and light and airy but also get privacy from the street.

Look how nice they came out!!
