*** 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:
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

BLIND ME! Our boys’ (ages 12 and almost 10) room is in need of new window coverings. They have roller shades that have seen better days!
Pam says
BLIND ME!!!!
We just bought our house and am DYING to get these venetians out of our dining room!!
karrie says
Blind me! We have some west facing windows that desperately need shades–this time a year, sunsets are blinding!
EM says
BLIND ME!
We move into our new (to us) home this Saturday and would love to get the large front window covered ASAP!
Amy says
Blind me!
Getting new windows for our first place so new blinds would be super sweet! There are 3 large windows at the front of the house that let in tons of light, which I love, but sometimes we need a little privacy.
Lacey says
BLIND ME!
We’ve been in our home for a little over a year and just haven’t been able to bite the bullet on blinds!
Melissa @ Life on Prairie Creek says
BLIND ME!
I would replace the hideous plastic blinds in our living room.
Lindsay says
“BLIND ME!” The window in the kitchen!! Actually the view isn’t so bad but that morning sun is quite blinding when I’m trying to fix my oatmeal!! :)
Andrea says
BLIND ME!
I think the worst view was in my husband’s basement apartment (when I had just met him) and the window looked right into a a window well in the ground. Very little light could make its way in, and, of course, you were always looking at dirt, leaves, bugs and the occasional trapped animal.
Brooke says
BLIND ME!
We have close neighbors on 3 sides, so blinds are essential. Sometimes when I forget to close the blinds in a room, I just make a mad dash and hope no one’s looking. :)
sarah says
BLIND ME!!! Well my parents live behind us and we have a glass exterior door leading from our office to the back yard. Although we love my parents and love having them close (at times) I would like a little privacy while I’m roaming the internet or trying to get work done.
Angela says
BLIND ME!
need better blind coverage in living room so I’m not breast-milk-pumping for all my neighbors to see!!
jennifer says
BLIND ME!
not so much an indoor view, but the hubs and i have taken to planting 12 green giant arborvitae trees to create a living fence separating us from our neighbors who have nothing better to do than peek out their blinds at us while we’re in the backyard!
Caitlin says
Blind me!
We do our best to block views of our next door neighbor’s back yard. He seems like a sweet guy, but we seriously worry that he might be a hoarder. His backyard is filled to the brim with JUNK.
Jenni says
BLIND ME!
We love our sunroom, but it’s at the front of our apartment, on the lower level (we live in a fourplex). People have to walk by our windows to get into the building. Right now we have the ugly cheap blinds that block out the lovely light while keeping it private, or raised, everyone can see in. Duofold shades would rock!
Sheri Johnson says
Our bedroom looks directly out onto the parking lot. At least we can keep an eye on our car fairly easily!
Jaime says
BLIND ME!
Sadly, I think WE are the naked neighbors! We just bought a house that had been completely gutted and redone by the previous owners – so we inherited lots of gorgeous windows and absolutely zero window coverings. We’ve ordered custom shades for about half the windows (all we could afford for now!) but are still waiting for them to arrive. We try so hard to be discreet and duck while changing clothes, but I’m sure our neighbors have seen much more of me than I’d like. Sigh.
Matt says
BLIND ME!
I’ll use it to cover our bathroom window!
ESBlondie says
“BLIND ME!”
Our living room and dining rooms could use some window love!
cs white says
BLIND ME!
You know, it’s not so much a view that I’d cover, but some light. We have shades up in my 4-year old son’s room, but the boy still wakes up with the sunshine. I keep meaning to find darker shades, but just haven’t done it. This would be a perfect opportunity to get something really nice for him.
Sarah says
We’re hoping to move soon. I don’t know where we’ll need them most, but I know we’ll need them!
jessica says
BLIND ME!
we need new blinds in our living room AND dining room!
Rebecca says
Blind Me!
Just put in an offer on a house w/ some older windows that will need covered. Hopefully no naked neighbors.
Lisa says
BLIND ME!
The two large windows in our den are in desperate need of covering! With baby on the way, it would be great to have some more privacy.
Bethany says
BLIND ME! We are getting ready to buy our 1st home and we’ll need some beautiful blinds!
Lisa A says
Blind me!
Our kitchen windows need a little help since they face a driveway.
Dawn S. says
BLIND ME!
My husband and I are submitting an offer today for our first home! The master bedroom (with a gorgeous tray-ceiling!) has a wall of 3 side-by-side windows with no window-covering at all! It is also a ranch-house, and the master bedroom in the back corner looks over our shallow (but wide) back yard and into the neighbor’s back yard! Window coverings are essential to keep the romance alive if Hubbs doesn’t want me in a giant fleece onesie for modesty in front of that window every night!
EJ says
BLIND ME!
Bri says
Fortunately, we got privacy glass on the bathroom window, so that one’s covered. But I’d love to have drapes that could cover the living room window (it’s 9 feet wide!). The cellular shades we have are ok, but they don’t block a lot of light. The drapes I picked up don’t cover the whole window unless I use two sets, and then they look goofy bunched up on either side of the window. Maybe I just need to get over it…
MegRuth says
BLIND ME!
We need serious help in our loft are!
Lyndsay M says
BLIND ME!!
I would love to get blinds for our family room, we have a beautiful view into the woods, but it is so bright in there that it would be nice to tone it down a bit when we are not looking to get a suntan indoors =)
Emily says
BLIND ME!
We could really use this for our baby’s room, it faces the street.
rachael says
BLIND ME!
I’d cover up the bathroom windows!
Carolyn says
BLIND ME!! Every window has some…except two in the living room. I just moved in and have been too busy to make it happen!
Lindsey White says
BLIND ME!
We have a huge living room window, and at night everyone can see in it. And my husband is not shy about walking in front of it naked…cause he says if their that nosey, let em look! How can they not be nosey when there is a naked dude in the window?!?!
Tracie says
Blind Me! My husband says even though we face the woods, we should cover up!
Lindsey says
Blind Me!
Unfortunately our house is on a small lot that allows us to see into about 4 different neighboring homes – and vice versa! We definitely need blinds all around!
Brandi says
BLIND ME!
While I love that we have a master bath with two windows, we desperately need window coverings for them!
Ann says
Blind me! A chance to replace the cheap paper shades that have been on my living room windows! Woot!
Jessica says
BLIND ME!
I want to update the look in our kitchen/dining area with some matching shades!
Kelly Wodetzki says
BLIND ME!!
I hate looking at the parking lot behind our second bedroom
Shannon R. says
BLIND ME!
We just built a house and recently moved in so every room needs window coverings. I need to do my daughter’s room first so she can actually nap during the day.
Shannon Mac says
BLIND ME! :)
Miley says
BLIND ME!
This would be a much needed update to our current window coverings!
Christy says
BLIND ME!
My husband’s office is totally exposed! Pick me so my neighbors won’t have to see his mess anymore. :)
Amy D says
Blind me!
We’ve redone our master bathroom (new floors, sinks, countertops, hardware, toilet, everything) but haven’t yet replaced the old nasty blind we took down when painting all the trim work. I still haven’t showered in our newly renovated bathroom because of the lack of privacy and use our guest bathroom down the hall full time (that is still stuck in the 80’s but has a blind!).
Meg says
BLIND ME!
I’d get blinds for our living room!!
Jerome says
BLIND ME! (but not by walking around in yer undies with the blinds open!)
My wife is always trying to upgrade the look of our home and frustrated by our small budget to do so. I’d love to surprise her with some nice window coverings. We need them in almost every room so I know she’d be thankful.
