The correct way is to tilt the slats down, however the slats can be tilt either way provide adequate filtering of light.
Yes. It is a form of the noun horizon. It refers to the dimension that is parallel to the Earth's surface (i.e. sideways) rather than vertical (up and down).
In general, I've noticed that the 60s tended to focus on bright colors and geometrical prints. Hair styles were a bit stiff, (Think bouffants and Jackie Kennedy) and make-up was bold, especially with eyeliner. The transition into the 1970s was subtle, it began by channeling the bright colors of the 60s into the disco look of the 70s. I notice that flare pants, sequins, and looser hairstyles became popular. As the new decade progressed, fashion began to take a more casual turn. Hair took a more natural look, and sideburns/beards were back in style for men, and the disco style became toned down, resulting in what is considered to be the "70s hippie" look associated with guitar-playing, folk-singing American nomads.
It is set up. Present It was set up. Past It will be set up. Future
Roy G Biv made up the name for colors.
Brett Butler, a Southern born comedienne, did a stand-up bit many years ago (circa 1990s?). After a show in New York City, a guido with a monstrously thick NYC accent came up to her and said, "I coult nevah live down Sout'...peepul soun' so stoopit when dey tawlk." Her response was, "Oh Arturo, Prince of Irony." The point, of course, being that the guy was lambasting someone for something he was standing there doing himself. As to whether Ms. Butler coined or found the phrase, only she can say.
I can't find any but if anyone does please let me know
down
Both of them have a different construction. Roman blinds are usually made of fabric and generally preferred in living rooms to add to the decorum of the upholsteries. You can also use roller blinds at home. Venetian blinds have horizontal slats one above the other and tied up with cords which rotates them 180 degrees to open and close. These are usually used in offices.
Close the blinds (with the slats in an up position) as tightly as possible. This will both reflect light and heat away from your house and create a pocket of air between your window and blinds that will serve as an excellent insulator.
They go down
Yes, you can travel with the blinds down in an RV mobile home. If you'd rather have them up, you can do that too.
Vertical blinds are most often used for sliding glass doors, where it is necessary to slide the blinds from left to right in order to gain access to the door. Horizontal blinds are usually used for windows, where the blinds need to be moved up and down to open and close the window.
We bought our blinds from http://www.soeasyblinds.co.uk When raising and lowering the blind use both hands to 'square up' the blind. This may to a bit of adjusting lifting up and down but once it is straight you should be fine
If I understand your question about blinds then when you pull on the cord beside the blind they will either furl (go up) or unfurl (go down)
Cellular blinds are also known as honeycomb shades, due to the unique way they are constructed. They come in a wide variety of colors and allow light to softly enter a room. These blinds can also be drawn top to bottom or bottom to top.
Fold up shades in both paper and fabric are a good choice for rooms that need light as well as privacy. Narrow slat Venetian blinds are also a good choice for a sleek, contemporary look.
Say the word "blinds" and some of us picture the two inch wide Venetian blinds of the 50's. They were two inch wide metal slats that were hung together with fabric strips to allow raising, lowering or tilting. They were, generally, noisy and by most standards did little to spruce up a room. But you can go a lot farther back in history to find the first application of blinds to windows. The early Egyptians strung together reeds from the mighty Nile for their version and the ancient Chinese cultures used bamboo. Hop on up to the eighteenth century and blinds were used as a modernization over bulky wooden shutters. Today those metal blinds of the 50's were replaced in the 80's by one inch vinyl mini blinds you can still use to decorate your windows, plus a wide variety of applications.
