I really liked what I saw when I went to a friend’s new home. She told me that the only thing she had changed was the window treatments, and that is one of the things that I liked the best. She told me that she had bought them from Orange County Shutters, a local company, and I knew that I was going to give them a look as well. That is the first time that I had ever been in someone’s home and wanted to duplicate the same look for my own, so that should explain just how nice these shutters are.

I had nice mini blinds in my own house at the time, but they paled in comparison to the shutters she had. The difference is not even explainable in nice terms. Hers were just so much nicer, and I went to the website for the company that same night. I knew that they were going to cost more than what I had paid for mine, but that did not bother me because I also knew that these shutters would last considerably longer than what the mini blinds I had would last.

The windows that face the sun were especially hard on the blinds I had. There was sun damage to them, and I knew that they would need replaced sooner rather than later. These shutters do not have the same problem. They cannot get sun damage like that, which would save me money in the long run. The company also had a nice sale going on when I looked, so I was able to get a really good deal on all the shutters that I had installed later on that month. They definitely make my house look different, and I have even had some friends ask for details so they can get some for their homes too. It really is a contagious decor!
