Dear blind bracket:
You will never be my BBF.
Sincerely yours, venetian blind detester.
Window blinds of all types are not new to me. I've had them in many of my previous homes. And four things have ALWAYS stood in my way from liking them.
1. I don't like looking through them all day.
2. They're clunky to scooch up out of the way.
3. They are fiddly to clean.
4. Installing is a royal pain.
In fact, NONE of my windows in my current home even HAVE blinds of any kind, for all of the above reasons. I. JUST. DON'T. LIKE. THEM.
BUT. Our needs required privacy and room darkening features in some rooms. So I was rather stuck. And chose to do nothing because I didn't know WHAT to do.
And then, the clouds parted, the angels sang and Dave from Simple Fit became my super hero!
Ok, you know I jest. That isn't Dave. But that's how this whole story makes me feel with how these custom shades managed to solve my problems.
So, what makes the Simple Fit system so special anyway?
I actually came up with three reasons.
#1. They install FAST.
Know why? They don't have hardware. Isn't that crazy?
Once the shades arrived, they sat in the boxes. I truly wasn't eager to tackle them. And then when I bit the bullet and just did it, I laughed. Because it was so ridiculously easy!!! I kid you not. And I'll show you how it's done in a moment.
2. They really REALLY darken your room!
You have a choice of light filtering or black-out. My son has trouble falling asleep during the long summer nights so I chose the black-out. And oh my GOSH is the room dark! He adores that!
As for me? If they were in my room I'd go the light filtering route. Isn't it nice to have that option?

3. They scooch out of my way!
I sooooo detest looking through traditional blinds. I like privacy by night and window with view by day. Better yet? These go up easily with a one finger touch. How cool is that?
And you know what? I'm gonna show you just how I installed them.
Dave asked if I could videotape my experience installing the shades and you KNOW how foreign that is to me. :) Kidding! Any chance to work with video editing software I consider a scream, so here you are! Flubs and all. :)
And.. the first window in the video is the same window you see in the above pic. The editing program shrinks your window viewing area which I didn't know. Whoops! No worries. You'll see more on window #2.
So, wanna get in on some of this action? I'd bet you do!

Simple Fit offers you all kinds of different custom shades at different price points with different features. So it pays to read what each type of shade offers. But just know, they all install easily, requiring no hardware, but rather, by means of either peel and stick or spring loaded, which mine had.
Dave was very generous and sent me the higher end cellular shades and their features are:
- spring loaded install system
- aluminum rails
- cordless (excellent for kiddos!)
- honeycomb insulating cells made from spun linen
- snow or cream
- light filtering or black-out
