When selecting the perfect blinds, keep your eyes wide open.

On a hot July afternoon, I was wandering aimlessly on the streets of Chantily.

It was one of those days when I was in the mood to abdicate my routine and just enjoy the open sky. It happens to everyone once in a way-right?

Even at that temperature, the streets were filled with tourists and business was brisk all around.

I thought I heard my name called out but was not sure. After all I was also rather new to Chantily.

Again I heard the sound of my name but this time I caught the caller. Someone was beckoning me from a cozy looking restaurant. I could not immediately identify the figure.
When I neared him, I was greeted with a big hug and a loud, cheerful voice. That did it. I recognized him by his voice; he was my classmate in the college. What a surprise!

He took me in to a windowless office and made me sit in a comfortable chair in a cool corner but with a view of the entrance. After the exchange of pleasantries, I asked him how did he spot me from his office?

With a smirk in his face, he pulled a string and a blind opened. I was speechless because, till that time I never spotted the blind, since it blended so well with the wooden panels on the wall.

He told me that he bought it online from a reputed vendor. When I asked him about how he managed the exact color combination, he simply said he asked for free samples from which it was easy to choose the matching color.

He confessed it was very difficult initially to decide on his purchase from their website, as the product range displayed tempting window blind & shade products include wood blinds, faux wood blinds, mini blinds, and vertical blinds. The window shades includes roman shades, cellular shades, pleated shades, roller shades, and woven wood bamboo shades.

But he received excellent tips and advice on window blind treatments from the experts.
Even the correct installation procedure was downloaded from their website in PDF format with complete pictures. The purchase price included all brackets and mounting materials.

He closed the blind again so that I can feel and admire the smooth texture.

He treated me to a nice meal and I parted after assuring him that I will keep in touch
