When looking to buy such as the double roller blinds, you need to be very keen and aware of what you want. You will need to be armed with the following pointers which can guide you to acquire the best for good prices.
1. Your Budget
Double roller blinds can be pricey because they have a system that addresses two different types of issues. The budget should be organized depending on the number of windows that you are planning to treat and how big they are. Large windows will cost you more since window treatment is charged by size. If you are looking for unique fabrics, patterns and custom sizes, your budget will most definitely go up.
2. Measuring the Window
Before you can do anything else at all you first need the measurements of the windows that you want to install the double roller blinds on.
- Interior Measurements
For windows set in recess; you will need it to be seven and a half centimeters for the blinds mechanism to fit properly. You then measure the width and the length of the window at different intervals to get a perfect size and accuracy. If you want to install roller blinds with cords, the head rail must be higher than one and a half meters from the ground. - Exterior Measurements
For this it is all about your taste as to how high or low you want to fit the double roller blinds. If you decided to fit in roller blinds that are corded, make sure that the children cannot reach the chains and cords. Have safety systems installed and keep furniture and objects that children can use to climb up away from the window. You will need two brackets, each at one end but venetian blinds at times require a third for support. - Home Décor
All factors considered you need to make sure that the double roller blinds that you are purchasing do not come to clash with the decoration that you already have for your home. Since roller blinds come in all types of fabrics and colors, it won’t be hard for you to find blinds that complement your home décor.
3. Privacy and Lighting
Any other blind addresses this issue in halves except the double roller blinds which are designed with both a fabric that is translucent that lets light in and a blackout fabric which keeps light out completely. The blackout keeps the room with constant temperature and blocks unwanted extra light, whereas the translucent fabric allows light in but keeps the UV rays at bay to prevent your furniture from fading.
Conclusion
With these few tips you can be able to purchase roller blinds that will be helpful to you and make an additional decoration to your home. You can also check on the cleaning time of double roller blinds if you are looking for a form of window treatment that is easy to clean.

Hanging a Wall Tapestry

Hanging a Wall Tapestry
Depending on your own preferences and circumstances, how you hang your wall tapestry can be just as telling about your personality as the wall tapestry itself. There are three basic ways to hang a wall tapestry, but at the same time, there are no hard and fast rules. Be creative!
- · Tapestry Rods: Probably the most common way to hang a wall tapestry is to use a decorative rod. Often, sites throw in a free rod when the wall tapestry is purchased. Depending on the tapestry, it may have a “sleeve” sewn into it that the rod slips through. If your tapestry has this, it provides one more option for you, and it useful if you do not want the rod to show so much. Some tapestries come with tab tops sewn on them, and the rod can be slipped through these. Other people prefer to remove these “tabs” and use decorative clips to suspend the wall tapestry from the rod.
- · Cardboard or light wood frames: If you prefer, you can wrap a tapestry around a piece of sturdy cardboard or lightweight wood and use a strong adhesive to secure the ends to the back. The only drawback with this is that some of the tapestry is “lost” as it folds over the back. However, you need less wall space than with a rod.
- · Framing: If your tapestry is small, you have the option to frame it. You will not need a matte, and non-glare Plexiglas is a good option so the colors of the wall tapestry can be seen well at all times. The advantage to this is that the frame can be chosen in any style you like. You can use the frame to “blend” design features as the eye moves from one part of your décor to another.
