The new blinds - a very nice touch

Thanks to Carolyn, we now have new blinds. I will admit, I always knew the old ones needed to go, but couldn't ever decide on what to replace them with. Well, Carolyn called 3 Day Blinds and they sent out a well prepared representative and we were off to the races. Today, Scott came and installed the blinds we had ordered. Carolyn wanted a wood venetian style blind in the kitchen window that closely matched the new cabinets. This is what we found and it is a far cry from the terrible metal mini-blind that was there and almost an exact match to the color!



The vertical blinds on the sliding door and two windows in the entertainment room needed replacement - a sort of dingy gray with a black stripe, so we went with this...





leaving only the metallic copper mini-blind in the dining room/DVD library. So we opted for this matching vertical blind, complete with center draw function!



Today also saw a visit from Ken at Superior Cabinets to replace the chipped door and shelf. While he was here, he checked the installation and adjusted the doors and was kind enough to install the last handle.

We are now set and ready for the counter tops on Monday!
