Fab Freebie: Love Is Blinds
*** This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won!***
Sure, we’d all love to gaze out of our home’s windows at some breathtakingly beautiful vista. But in reality, some windows are portals to the back of the neighbor’s fence, an unwelcome glare, or even the view of a man walking around in his tighty-whities all night because he doesn’t realize his curtains are sheer (true story from my New York City days – yup, just like the naked guy from Friends). All the more reason to appreciate window coverings, like these beauties from Next Day Blinds:
This week Next Day Blinds is shucking out $200 to one lucky lad or lady to spend towards any custom-made, premium-quality, ready-the-next-day blinds, shades, sheers, rollers, romans or even shutters. And they’ve got enough styles to make your head spin (which you can browse right here).
Here are the giveaway deets:
- PRIZE: $200 towards any Next Day Blinds order
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “BLIND ME!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …tell us about a view you wish you could cover (or are glad that you’ve already covered). Maybe the neighbors can look right into your bathroom (or vice versa)? Or you once stayed in a hotel room with a not so nice view?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 10th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
******************************
And our one lucky winner (as selected by random.org) is… Hien (who’s looking to cover up some sun-drenched kitchen windows). Congrats!

BLIND ME!
Yes, we unfortunately have a ‘naked’ neighbor. And I don’t think he realizes that even though it is dark outside, when the TV screen is turned on, we can see you bright as day!
Blind ME!!!
My master bathroom window needs some coverage.
BLIND ME!!
I would get new blinds for my Living Room window for sure!
BLIND ME!
I finally ripped down the last of our gross plastic venetian blinds (left by the previous owner) which has left our dining room windows totally naked.
BLIND ME!
it seems no matter where we live the kids bedroom window always has some sort of street light right outside – we are currently in the process of redoing their room so new blinds to block out the street light at night and the sun in the morning would be awesome
Blind me!
We’re moving into our first house in less than two weeks! Would love to have something pretty in the master bedroom to cover up the view of the neighbor’s house!
Blind me! We see straight into the neighbor’s house through our guest room windows… not the most inviting view for guests!
BLIND ME!
I’d love to get some plantation shutters in our huge front room window so it can feel a little more private.
blind me!!
BLIND ME!
We have a front room window right at the intersection of two busy roads that you can see right into the house!
BLIND ME!
The window in our bathroom is a funny size so we dont have any window covering on it! when its time to shower we just throw up an extra towel to cover it!
Blind me!
I would love something for our sitting room bay window, to keep the people walking by from being able to see directly in but still let out dog watch everyone go by.
Blind me!
I would use them for our bathroom. We currently have wooden roman shade but when the lights are on, I know people can see in (although there is no one around us to see)
BLIND ME!
We have some living room windows that could certainly use some drapes!
BLIND ME!
I’d love to replace some in our living room!
BLIND ME!
We are finishing up (hopefully) a remodeling so I have half a house full of windows that need covering. This would be so helpful right now!
Blind Me!
Worst view – our neighbor BBQ-ing in his underwear! YUCK!
BLIND ME!
We desperately need to cover our office window. It currently overlooks our neighbors yard which looks like a junk yard. Everything from an old rusted out stroller with ripped seat to a giant unused dog kennel sits right outside our window. They covered their view up of it by using tall bushes to put in front of it but unfortnately we still have to stare at it, day in and day out. Argh!
BLIND ME!
I would have to use this for our slider, cuz the contraption we have right now is wreaking havoc on our walls! Its totally ridiculous and needs changing. Og, and we have a house directly behind us, so I had to go out first thing when we moved in to get blinds for our bathroom and bedroom windows…
Blind me!!
We have a wide open sliding glass door. Not so bad in the summer when the sun sets at 9 or so. Bad in the winter when it gets dark at 430 and our kitchen is like a beacon of light for all to see inside :)
BLIND ME!!!
We have lovely view of our neigbors house out our dining room window. Our house is positioned awkwardly on the lot and said neighbors house is only about 10 ft away. We currently have vertical blinds (gag!) so I would love to replace them.
BLIND ME!
First time I leave a comment on your great blog. We need to get wood shutters for one front window in my row house. This 200$ would help me a lot!!!
BLIND ME! After waiting 2.5 years for approval on my new windows in my townhome (HOA from HELL), I am finally getting all new windows and a new patio door. I can’t afford to get new blinds for the slider right now because it is so expensive, but I really need to block a Gladys Kravitz across the street and hate to think of hanging my old early 90s burgandy ones over the nice new door.
Blind Me!
BLIND ME!Definitely my bathroom window! NEED privacy!
“BLIND ME”
We stayed in a hotel in Seattle where the view was of the neighboring parking garage.It was a nice hotel and room though. Loved Seattle.
BLIND ME!!
Yeah, sort of the opposite, in our very new-to-us house (we moved in on Saturday), *I* forgot the curtains were sheer and flashed the new neighborhood… Oops!
BLIND ME!
I want to cover my living room windows. The view right across the street of our house is the window IN the neighbors shower and they don’t feel the need to hang a curtain in there.
BLIND ME!
Thankfully, no ugly views in our home. Our large picture window looks out onto a lake and the back to our small but beautiful yard. I WOULD however like to update the blinds in our bathroom window – which faces directly to our neighbors’ side door – only about 10 feet from our home! :)
Blind me!
Blind me! I would love to cover the view of my neighbors yard with some pretty new updated blinds. The ones we have now came with the house when we bought it, so it’d be nice to have some new fancy ones!
BLIND ME!
Our basement casement windows are these hideous old vertical blinds. I would LOVE to replace them!
Blind me!
We are about to switch our dining and family rooms and I desperately want some beautiful new blinds for both rooms (which are at the front of our house and face the road).
Blind me! I would love to replace the view of our current blinds from the previous owners- white wooden blinds with the paint flaking of everywhere and the cords discolored to brown! YUCK!
Blind me!!!
We bought our house in July..and have blinds up in one room. Our bedroom. So, we would LOVE to have some more coverage!
BLIND ME!
BLIND ME!
The slope of our front yard means that our upstairs master bedroom windows are level with the street… I’d love to have some nice blinds since they have to stay closed all the time to keep out curious eyes!
BLIND ME! In my master bedroom!
BLIND ME!
Our bedroom has three windows that all face an apartment complex next to us. Even though we have blinds, I’m convinced people can see through!
BLIND ME!
We need blinds for our half bathroom!!
BLIND ME!!!
We just moved into our new house in late July. My husband was laid off on August 1st! Our wedding was September 4th! So you can see we’ve been bust and I have not had a chance to address the 1980′s mauve pink blinds in our kitchen! For now they just stay up because I’s rather look at the neighbors than the pink pains! :)
Plantation shutters would be a dream come true!
BLIND ME! My bedroom window looks into my buildings dumpster…yuuuck!
BLIND ME!
Would love to put window coverings on our big dining room windows since the neighbors have a clear view right inside…
BLIND ME!
I would love to replace the blinds in my kids’ rooms since they are old and beat up!
Blind me! We have a window in our living room that is incredibly dirty…from the outside. Since we live 4 floors up, we can’t clean it. We would loooove to get hide that.
BLIND ME! I would cover 3 floor to ceiling windows that are in my living room. Since moving into our fixer upper over a year ago we have been living in a fish bowl with no window coverings. The neighbors are probably tired of watching us!
BLIND ME!
Our half bath has a window that looks out onto our deck. When you use the grill your view beyond is of the toilet inside. We could deifnitely use some nice blinds in there!
BLIND ME!
I would love to replace the heave, white “Jail Blinds” that are currently in our downstairs. Not really our style.
BLIND ME!
