fenchurch | 1 March - Installing new blinds (Reply)

rackham has been working hard (with occasional help from me, but he's done quite a bit of it while I was out of town) on getting the Library/Media Room ready to use. The house came with a giant powered screen in the downstairs room, which had obviously been designed specifically to be a movie room. The windows had some fairly cheap blinds on them, but were heavily draped with some very nice, dark fabric (to give it an old-style theater look) which looked great but really wasn't to our tastes. We ordered new blinds and pulled down the drapes... and Rackham wasted no time getting the new blinds installed.

This is the very first window he did... the blinds are a bit funky, with a very effective blackout blind on the bottom and a less opaque regular sort of blind on top. In this photo, he'd just gotten the blind hung, had pulling down the blackout portion and was halfway through pulled down the regular blind. We're actually thinking of getting this same type of blind for the bedroom
