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!

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Next Day Blinds.

    I need to replace my broken blinds in my home office. The blinds are always closed because they won’t stay open, blocking me from occasionally seeing the outside, a view I’d like to be able to see occasionally but not all the time. The kid’s buss stop is in front of my house and we constantly have kids in my yard, eyes I don’t want to be watching me while I work.

    BLIND ME! We have a beautiful, and mostly private, backyard that can be viewed from our wide open kitchen windows. While we love enjoying our view, we don’t love the lack of security (especially when we go out of town). We’ve been saving up for cafe shutters for quite some time now, this would be amazing!

    We just put in a patio door in our kitchen… it lets a lot of great light into the space and gives us much needed access to the back yard (for the dog and for use of the patio).
    But now folks in the park behind our house can see right into the kitchen- it would be nice to be able to cover up the windows for times when privacy is needed.

    Even though we live in a historic district which forbids it, our next door neighbors have a flood light mounted on the side of our house. Every window of ours that opens up to that side is flooded with bright light every night. We need tons of window coverings!
