Unusual vertical blinds.

by Jerry snyder
(Pasadena, US)

MY QUESTION

WOULD YOU KNOW ANY RESOURCES TO LOOK AT ONLINE -- OR EVEN BE ABLE TO SUGGEST ANY SEARCH TERMS TO PUT IN TO SEARCH THE INTERNET

I've tried search terms like : "modern vertical blinds" or "architect vertical blinds" or "art vertical blinds".But i haven't really gotten much.

I did find one rod, lol, but I can't get to the manufacturer for some reason -- they have lights in the rod :

Very nice looking, i thought.

I recently bought drapes at IKEA called "UNNI BLAD" (green and blue "leafy" pattern)

http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20122208

I have vertical blinds behind them and I could have TWO ENTIRELY DIFFERENT ROOMS depending if i had the vertical blinds showing or the curtains pulled across (showing the pattern on the curtain.

So they don't necessarily have to co-ordinate.

thanks for any suggestion on site OR any suggestions on what search terms i could use to get closer to sites that might have unusual blinds or panel style blinds.



Hi Jerry

Interesting query never been asked before had to do a little research. As you found very difficult to get a vertical with a picture on due to the way the strips are manufactured.

But fear not I have found 2.

1. Desert scene

2> City scape

I hope these may suit you. If not maybe get some plain verticals and create your own design with paint or with sticky back plastic in various colors cut into shapes.

Just a thought but could turnout very time consuming.
