Since the cellulars aren't my showpiece I'm not going for the best ones. If you are looking for a lot of light filtration, sound and thermal insulation choose a thicker multicell blind. The most important dimension I looked at was the depth, as I want to mount the shades inside the window frame. <BR/><BR/>We'll be putting the drapes up to essentially go floor to ceiling to hide the old poorly done trim, as well as make the window a true visual anchor point in the room. To help keep things "in scale" we chose a pattern that is smaller in scale, so hopefully the drapes will fit in the scheme instead of standing out TOO much.Coreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17294937394397021875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7717122983754819465.post-22530933729845147332008-06-12T12:42:00.000-04:002008-06-12T12:42:00.000-04:00Hey Corey...Jennifer in Chicago again. :)I was wo...Hey Corey...<BR/><BR/>Jennifer in Chicago again. :)<BR/><BR/>I was wondering how tall your living room windows are and what size cellular shades you bought? (ie 1/2, 3/4, etc)<BR/><BR/>We have REALLY tall windows and I am looking to do what you are...let light in...keep flat screen thieves at bay. I dont want too much bulk and want to keep it to scale.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again!<BR/><BR/>Jen<BR/>j.kletzel@sbcglobal.netAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7717122983754819465.post-80215999494341841732008-06-12T10:41:00.000-04:002008-06-12T10:41:00.000-04:00Luckily Cat (that's my cat's name) is declawed, bu...Luckily Cat (that's my cat's name) is declawed, but we'll see if Loki decides to make them a chew toy. I'll be interested to see what type of anti-kitty tampering device you think up. You get bonus points if it uses electricity. :-)<BR/><BR/>If you do go with more cellulars, check out selectblinds.com. 4x8 cellulars are around $80 after all the discounts.Coreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17294937394397021875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7717122983754819465.post-29640304939526696132008-06-12T10:01:00.000-04:002008-06-12T10:01:00.000-04:00That's why we have cellular shades as well. Alas, ...That's why we have cellular shades as well. Alas, my cats have almost completely destroyed the one in the front window, and at 4'x6', it was horrendously expensive. I'm trying to come up with a cat-proof anti-look-at-my-giant-tv yet still allow-the-light-in window covering, and have yet to find one. I'm thinking it might involve some construction and a cat door. to a window. It's so wrong. So very wrong.Summerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12035161050945740202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7717122983754819465.post-80499099757953897562008-06-11T16:12:00.000-04:002008-06-11T16:12:00.000-04:00Hey Corey,Thanks for dropping by my blog and leavi...Hey Corey,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for dropping by my blog and leaving a comment! I like yours as well. Since we're doing our own renovations, it's always cool to see what other homeowners are doing.<BR/><BR/>ElizabethAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
