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
- 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!

BLIND ME! I have a window that looks right into our master bedroom from the neighbor’s upstairs window. I’m sure they’ve seen my nakedness many times – blinds would be great!
Jess S says
BLIND ME!
I have plenty of large windows that desperately need covering!! We bought a new house recently and have more windows than we know what to do with. I’m just struggling to find the right stuff, so pick me! pick me!
stacy says
BLIND ME (please). Our new house backs up to a golf course-nice, right? Except if you are in my master bath…the toilet sits right next to a huge sliding glass door. Hellooooo Golfers!!
amber says
Blind Me!
We also have a third bedroom which is a guestroom/office/sewing room so I need to cover our closet opening that houses an unsightly computer, printer and sewing machine.

I would actually use this to gift my parents new blinds, they just did an amazing renovation of my childhood home but are waiting to do window treatments because of cost issues! perfection!
Evangeline says
BLIND ME!
I would to be blinded up with your blinds, love to put it my dining room. It could use a good one to fight of sunlight at midday! Thanks
Kathy McCarthy says
Blind me!
We live in an urban area where the houses are VERY close together. The only way to have some privacy is to keep the blinds closed all the time, but it makes it feel like we’re living in a cave. I would love to get some top down blinds so we can let the sun shine in without our neighbors seeing in the bathroom window!
Emily Kidd says
BLIND ME! Our doors to the back yard are all glass and you can see from the street into our house if there not covered! These blinds would be the perfect solution.
Gretchen says
We have a modern house and we tried to convince ourselves that we did not need to cover up the windows…until… we recently had someone staying in our home for a long weekend while we were away. A neighbor across the street informed us of the goings on inside as he watched the house with binoculars…please Blind ME!
Deb says
” Blind ME ” We never needed full window treatments on our home but now with the new gas drilling in the northeast mountains we have traffic on our backroads that have never even seen a 18 wheeler on ever them .
Samantha says
BLIND ME!
We just found out we’re expecting and we need some new cordless blinds to put in our new nursery!
Lacey says
BLIND ME!
We have a large window in our downstairs theater room that opens sideways, from right to left. There are ugly white vertical blinds that do not filter the light well at all, so we cannot use the room as a theater during the day (it is best if the room is pitch black). I would love to get some nicer blinds and curtains that serve this purpose!
carrie says
BLIND ME!!!! i desprately need blinds in my kitchen, every afternoon the sun blinds me something awful! :(
Melissa C. says
BLIND ME!
:D
Courtney Hightower says
BLIND ME!!
Since we live in a garden home, we’re right next to two other houses. While our house backs up to the woods, the windows on the side definitely need to be covered… otherwise, we’re all looking straight into each other’s home.

AJ says
BLIND ME!
I really need blinds for the bathroom! Trying to get ready in the morning with the sun reflecting off the mirror is starting to blind me!
Jill L-G says
BLIND ME!
I’ve never wanted blands as badly as I did my sophomore year in college, when the guys accross our courtyard made it REALLY clear that the last thing they wanted were for us to do so…
Jenn W-M says
BLIND ME!
We currently have cheap plastic mini blinds and want to upgrade into something much nicer!
Shar Yates says
Blind Me!
Would love to cover in some way, the glass front doors without sacrificing light.
Thanks!
Erin says
BLIND ME! We live on a city lot where our neighbors – on either side – are only 4 feet away. I have covered one of our two kitchen windows because it looks directly into the neighbor’s kitchen. We’re friendly and all, but I don’t need to see what kind of tea she’s making. The window coverings are from 5 yrs ago and certainly in need of an update! Thanks!
Jennifer McGovern says
Blind Me……I am desperate for blinds in our front living room. We are window treatment less and have been in the house for over 1 1/2 years!! Help!
Sarah says
BLIND ME!
Our neighbors will thank you for helping to cover us up….
Stephanie says
BLIND ME!
I would love to find the perfect window treatment to cover my kitchen window that looks out onto the neighbor’s deck. On more than one occasion they have commented on how often those dinner dishes seem to pile up in our sink!
Brian L says
BLIND ME!
Jill M says
BLIND ME!
I need to cover the windows in my sunroom to keep the summertime a/c costs down!
JessieDae says
Blind me!
Just in time … we are renovating our house and sadly, our bathroom came in over budget … so that leaves room for blinds at the moment. This would be AWESOME!
Elyse says
BLIND ME! Worst view: my college apartment, where the living room looked out onto a horrible cement porch with huge and blindingly ugly painted metal railings.
HeatherBakes says
BLIND ME!! We’ve lived in our house for 3 years and have yet to settle in window treatments for our front windows. I would LOVE to remedy that.
Mary Margaret says
BLIND ME!!
I have a new-to-me house with waaaay more windows that I have blinds. . but the bathroom is covered :)
Brittany Johnson says
BLIND ME!!!!
I still have a lot of windows in my house craving some window treatments that are stuck with those cheap roll up curtains made from vinal. ICK.
Nichole says
BLIND ME!
The new house I’m buying has almost floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room. The natural light is lovely during the day, but at night being so exposed to all that darkness is scary. Also, I’d like to shield my new neighbors from my tendency to walk naked to and from the shower.
Inez says
BLIND ME!
We’re having our first house built and the windows are in place. We keep going to visit it and every. single. window. save for the one facing the street looks RIGHT into a neighbor’s window. We’re already well acquainted…
Amanda says
Blind Me!
I’d love to have some nice blinds on my daughter’s window because her semi-sheer curtains are NOT cutting it during nap time!
(we had our little girl a few days before you had Clara, so I’m sure you understand the value of a good nap)
Jessie says
Oh, pretty please- Blind me! I’ve still got the super cheap-o vertical blinds on my big, big sliding glass doors downstairs. A new set of blinds there would make a huge impact!
r8chel says
BLIND ME!
We live in the woods, so I wish I didn’t have to cover ANY windows, but of course we do have curtains up in the bedrooms. Our master bedroom needs new window treatments, so this would be perfect!
Mindy says
BLIND ME!
Please.
Our master bedroom’s window overlooks our neighborhood’s main road–and heavy foot traffic. We see and hear a lot.
NIchole Cianci says
BLIND ME!
Our first apartment had a window cut into the shower unit!! It was a busy road, street view into our shower!
Lindsay says
BLIND ME!
We too just moved into a new house, with our 2nd child on the way we desperately need blinds for what will be the nursery. Blinds= More sleep :)
Christina says
!!!!BLIND ME!!!!
Our kitchen window….looks right at a huge tree. No view, just bark haha.
No view at all, the problem is its our neighbors tree so there is not a whole lot we can do about it!!!
Jessica G. says
Blind me! Our last apartment building had a mirror-image building facing ours with an alleyway between them. Our bathroom window and the neighbor’s bathroom window were exactly across from each other, with just a few feet in between. Our windows were frosted glass, but in the summer it was so stifling hot that we just had to open them. We could see — and hear — everything that went on in the neighbor’s bathroom. And I guess they could say the same for us. Like good New Yorkers, though, we all just pretended the others didn’t exist!
Bailey says
blind me :)
I have a very awkward shaped window, so it needs special blinds….till then the sun keeps beating us down.
Pam says
BLIND ME – I desperately need blinds for our family room window, which faces the street – we did nice sheer curtains and wanted to put up bamboo blinds ala Casa Petersik, but it seems that the standard size does not fit our window! We know we need something custom, but can’t quite afford it yet.
Kim says
BLIND ME!
My husband and I really need some window coverings in our current office. We are trying to get pregnant, and the office will be converted to a nursery.
Ellen says
BLIND ME! our whole upstairs needs blinds! we have old roller shades (from the 80’s) that have got to go…
michelle r. says
“BLIND ME!!” Recently we went on a mini-vacation and stayed in a hotel that had a horrible view!! It was nice to have curtains to cover them up – but would have been even better if the curtains were pretty!! :)
Holly E says
Blind me!
need new window treatments for updating!
Stephanie says
BLIND ME! :)
I’ve had temporary cheap-o ikea sheers on my three master bedroom windows for almost two years now, and dying to have something more stylish and private. I always feel like people can see in at night – terrible, especially when we’re talking bedroom!

I would love to cover my kitchen sink window with some great plantation shutters.
