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

BLIND ME!
After a week of being woken up by our dog barking at the animals who crossed our yard every night we bought curtains for the back sliding door. It was a great investment and everyone is sleeping much better now.
Christine says
I was having fun clicking around this site, and then I clicked on a roman shade “design idea” my computer warned me that it was under attack by malware. Maybe just bad luck on my part, but beware that this site seems fishy to me…

I definitely want to cover the view from my kitchen of my neighbor’s air conditioner with something much nicer than the white mini blinds that came with the house.
Katie says
BLIND ME!
I’d love to cover the view of powerlines and alley traffic behind the house.
Erika says
BLIND ME! I’ve been living with temporary paper blinds on my front bay window for a year and a half….yuck! I’ve been drooling over wood blinds but also gasping at the price tag!
Heather L. says
BLIND ME!
I hate looking at our next door neighbor’s messy yard! New blinds would be great :)
Kathryn says
Blind me… or should I say my neighbors whose driveway goes right along side our back yard. They can see in when walking their dog, and I would love a little privacy!!
Erin says
BLIND ME…..from seeing the three old, ratty pine trees on my neighbor’s property fall on my house.
Kali says
BLIND ME! We replaced all the windows in our house last April and have to add back a single window covering. We’re in dire need of some for at least the bathroom!
Meredith says
BLIND ME!
In high school my room overlooked the neighbor’s bathroom… even if I wasn’t looking out the window, I could still hear every flush… ugh!
Val says
BLIND ME!
Our house came with some truly atrocious aluminum mini blinds in the bedrooms. They can’t go naked because they face a busy street, but I’d love to get rid of those nasty, clanky, office-y window treatments.
Jeneec says
Blind me!
Ah! I just discovered your blog and love it! I’ve recently moved into my boyfriend’s home and am loving every minute of decorating the space together and combining our styles. I’m learning to compromise on the flowers and ceramic birds. ;)
We’ve been talking about replacing the tacky vertical blinds all through his house with something more sofisticated and energy efficient.
Andrea says
Blind me!!!
Amanda Deerr says
Blind Me! Our bedroom window looks into our neighbors living room, yikes!
Anna Romero says
BLIND ME!!
I’d love some darker shades in our bedroom! maybe then our baby would sleep in a little longer! :)
Laura says
Blind me! I’d love to get blinds to cover the French doors to our sunroom — great in theory, but the windows are covered in paint from a previous owner.
Darlene says
BLIND ME!! I could cover the bathroom window – it looks beautiful in the summer but when those leaves fall – my neighbors will be looking at me!
Nicole says
BLIND ME!
My laundry room window looks into our backyard neighbor’s yard and I can even see their television! It’s not so good when the clothes I want to wear in the morning are in the dryer!
abby says
Blind Me!
I’d love some blinds for our foyer window. It looks right at our neighbor’s trash cans.
Jess says
BLIND ME!
I’m dying to get some beautiful Roman shades up in our kitchen!
Jackie says
BLIND ME!
I wish I didn’t have to look at the house next door to mine! Unfortunately, it’s the eye sore on a street of pretty houses!
stasi says
BLIND ME! I love all my views, i would like to block the people from looking IN.
Meg says
Blind Me!
We have a very large picture window in the living room that I love, but gives our neighbors a nice view pretty much straight through our house! I would love the added privacy of some new blinds!
cara says
BLIND ME!
I live in the country so we can let it all hang out and not have to worry about who’s peeping in our windows but I would love some new bedroom shades to keep the sun out on days that I get to sleep until noon!
Kristin L says
BLIND ME
If we can see into our neighbor’s kitchen then they can see into ours, right?
Amanda H says
BLIND ME!!! Covering the basement windows (and lovely window wells) ranks high on my list!!!
Cara says
BLIND ME!!!
We are oh so close to our neighbor’s homes. I am loving the privacy blinds provide, because lets be honest….being able to open our window, lean way over to touch our neighbor’s vinyl siding – not cool! help!!!!!!
Jaime says
BLIND ME! You can see straight into my basement from outdoors. I need those windows covered.
Nicole says
Blind me!! And yes, the neighbors can see right into our bathroom, which wasn’t the case in our apartment so it’s been an adjustment :)
Corrie says
BLIND ME!
The view from our dining table is our neighbor’s boat, which hasn’t moved in over six years.
Christy says
BLIND ME…our kitchen nook window overlooks my neighbors master bathroom. Appetizing!
rachel says
BLIND ME! New home. Blank windows. I’d love to solve this problem with some blinds. It’s like everyone’s peeping in!
lynzee says
Blind Me!!! I live in a gorgeous rental that I adore, but with neighbor’s bedroom windows butting up right inline with my living room/dining room windows, it makes for some akward eye contact. This would be amazing!
alison stutin says
BLIND ME!
Our front window to our house has some ugly old verticals I have been dying to replace forever with a pretty shutter style.
Becca L. says
Blind Me! We’d love to cover our french doors that at the right time of day let in just too much light. Yay!
Sarah B says
Blind me! I have a funny little window that is in desperate need of a blind!
Elizabeth says
Blind me- our neighbors leave their porch light on all the time and it looks directly into our bedroom… so annoying at 11pm when you want to sleep. It’s like the sun!
Brittany says
BLIND ME!
I need window coverings on pretty much every window in our 1930’s house. The current ones are from about 1955…seriously.
melissaG. says
BLIND ME!
I’d love some custom blinds for our front door! Expenses add up fast buying a house, so we’ve skimped on things like nice blinds!!
Kari says
BLIND ME!
We have the ugliest entry way ever. Anytime someone new comes to the house I mentally beat myself up for not putting it’s redo at the top of the priority list. There’s a big hole in the drywall that I’d LOVE to cover up–with some more drywall.
I love this giveaway–the husband and I were just talking about our last 2 sets of blinds we need to buy this morning!!
Courtney Fosnaugh says
BLIND ME!
I need some pretty curtains for my newly finished dining room! We have icky mini blinds that I’m dying to get rid of!
wendy h says
BLIND ME! I need all new blinds on the south side of my house… they are getting all peel-y. ick.
JoelandDeborah says
BLIND ME! My family room windows catch the sun every afternoon, which is lovely except for the fact that it’s fading our favorite sectional. Love the sun, despise the fading. Sigh…
Teacher Amber says
Blind Me!
Katie says
BLIND ME!
I would love something covering the window across the hall from the bathroom. If someone is going to the bathroom and our little 2 year old opens the door on us (happens more than it should) anyone on the street can see straight into the bathroom.
kami says
BLIND ME!
man, i’d cover the ugliest windows you’ve ever seen! for some reason, the people who lived here before me decided to put new windows in front of the old ones. that’s right folks, they did NOT take the old ones out. so, they’re imposible to clean and it would be lovely to seen something pretty on them!
LibbyS says
BLIND ME!
I can’t be sure, but, due to lack of stylish window treatments, I might be a culprit myself. While I can’t see clearly into the windows of the condo building across from me, I suppose I really don’t know if the same is true for them!!!
Megan E. says
BLIND ME!
I just bought a new house and I’m in the process of finding window coverings. This would be awesome!
Kari says
BLIND ME!
Our living room need it’s very own blinds. We are still using the sheers that were left by the previous owner.
Beth says
BLIND ME!
Our family room window looks out over our yard (great), and our neighbor’s garbage, dead grass, discarded toys, dog poop yard (not so great). The window is a strange shape and the current shades are fugly, so I’d love something new to cover up the view!
