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:

NextDayBlinds Image 1

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.

    BLIND ME! We have been on the search for a window treatment for our kitchen door. It looks right out into our side yard (and neighbors’ front doors) so getting up in the middle of the night for a glass of water, etc. can be a mad dash or a quick duck under the door window. :)

    BLIND ME. Actually we are desperately in need of new blinds. We still have the same ones installed by the previous owners and they are not pretty. We have really close neighbors and need those ugly blinds until we can budget them in. Would be great to win!

    I need blinds all over the house. We recently moved and still have the paper shades all over, they are really a pain to open every morning. I am looking forward to upgrading to blinds already.

    BLIND ME! This giveaway is just what I need! My windows, sadly, are covered in sheets currently because I can’t make a decision of how to “dress” them since it seems that the options cost too much! My kitchen needs blinds. My bedroom needs blinds. My office, etc…it would be a very welcomed addition to my home!

    BLIND ME!! LOVE this giveway because we need blinds to cover about 40 feet of windows in our lower level! I’m ashamed to admit that we’ve lived in our house for 5 years and still have not gotten blinds. Luckily all of our other windows are covered… the master bathroom was the first to get some roman shades as it faced our neighbors garage. Don’t want to have any peeks!

    we bought a foreclosure they took all the blinds. The window that I would love to cover is a small narrow window in the bedroom. Im sure that when its dark and our light is on…. that little window, makes us look like we are in a fishbowl….. yikes.

    we moved into our new house, gutted it, and are mostly done with the re-building it (all diy!) but still have blue paint tape holding up opaque film on most of the windows…. at a standstill with the windows.

    I just bought my first home, which is much like your current home. It did however have the most hideous window treatments you have ever seen. Needless to say, my windows are currently naked.

    I’d love to color my wall-to-wall, floor to ceiling windows in the new condo I’m moving into. I will be living on the first floor, with my patio door/living room windows literally an arm’s length from our neighborhood’s walking path, and a stone’s toss away from the house that backs up to the property. I just would like the privacy (freedom) to lay on my couch all Saturday in my pajamas in my living room without getting judged!

    Blind me! We have absolutely no covers, blinds, or curtains on our bedroom window, and awful vertical blinds on the balcony door! I’ve been dying to a) get the bedroom window covered – I hate crouching down behind the bed trying to get dressed every morning…and b) replace those stupid vertical blinds with something that actually LOOKS GOOD! I reewwaaaaaalllllyyyyy need to win this one! Our kitchen Reno has us pretty broke! :(
