I hate blinds! 11 windows in my house have them and they are an off white color and they are all filthy. My house is 102 years old and my windows are really long so my dad(my lanlord)
) thought blinds where the way to go. I havent cleaned them in 5 years. They are a pain in the butt to get down and put up plus they are impossible to get clean. I do dust them once in awhile. My advice never invest in blinds. Curtains aew easier to wash.
