Window Curtain's



Faux Suede Grommet Panel image
Every time I visit my dad's and we sit down to watch TV we often get a glare form the sun.  He does have window curtains but they are see through and do absolutely no sun blocking.  I always wonder what the point of his curtains are because many times he hangs a blanket over the curtains.  Now how attractive is that in the decor department!

I am not an interior decorator but  I do know several people who are or should be because they have a great eye when they see a space and the potential of a room.  It would be a good idea for me to price curtains out and maybe give my dad the gift of curtains for Christmas so he will not struggle with sun glares any longer.

Are window curtains in style or are blinds a better choice?  I know the way my dad's living room is set up it would make more sense for curtains.  Maybe I should hire a friend to redecorate my dad's living room!

I think the picture I used would be a good option for my dad's living room but I would have to rethink the colors but it is a thicker material so I think the sun would be blocked which is what I am looking for!  :)

we do both. we have wood blinds to block out the sun, but then the curtains are really just for looks not function. i love curtains. i think that they give a room a warm feeling making it more home-y

Yes, sunlight can make a big difference in our houses. Your dad's window curtains look very clean and elegant. Was he the one who chose those?

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

  Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...

A big thank you to Andy who sent me some amazing cookies to try to conduct my review.  :)  All opinions expressed are 100 % mine and I was not paid for this review.   About Sweet Andy's Cookies: The “Thank You” Cookie In 2009, Andrew (Sweet Andy) found himself in a position like so many others at that time in our past; the economy was quickly spiraling downward and he had left his job in the financial services industry. Although Andy had an MBA in Banking and Finance and had even written a book entitled, “A Guide to Taking Control of Your Investments”, he found himself to be disenchanted with the financial industry and left to pursue “other work.”  The “other work” that Andrew pursued was with the Church and did not provide financial support for the family.  During this time Andy and his wife, Lissa, struggled to find other forms of income.
