THIS IS A BIG ONE GUYS!! 💕💥 You've asked SO much about how to do windows, how to solve window problems, how to design window coverings... and FINALLY here MY take on how designers do window treatments!! Make sure to comment below with any other questions you may have!! 🔥🥰😍
Can you tell me what to do when the windows are vertical to open, can you help me with that type of design, because the shades or curtains get duty on one side. Thank you, I love the way show the difference
Hey, Lisa I ran the window treatment department of a design center for 32 years. One thing your fans should know : if you're getting an outside mount on a shade, you should have the width 3" wider on each side (6" total) than the window opening for privacy and light control reasons. The gap between the fabric of the shade and the window allows people to see into your home and lets light in as well. Love your videos! Nora
Nora!!! This is SUCH good info!! 🤯🤯 I LOVE that we have actual window treatment professionals in the channel fam - you guys' tips are SOOOO valuable!! 💙🤩 Thank you so much for sharing your expertise with all of us - amazing point!! 💕👏🏻
Lisa, Nora, what's your opinion on this: a shade on a window over a radiator could go all the way down to the floor like a drape or stop dead above it? 🤔
These videos are absolutely the best source available outside of hiring a designer. The best, most complete, most helpful design information on the internet. Thank you so much Lisa.
Anita! I am soo happy that you are learning so much through my videos! 😇 I am actually launching the Dezign Club this summer and it's going to be PACKED with more information!! 🤩🤩 Be sure to sign up to join it here www.lisaholt.com/thedezignclub !!!! I know that you're going to LOVE IT!!! 👏🏼❤️💜
The examples you show are beautiful, but can you include some “average” homes? It can be hard to translate an example with 20 foot ceilings into a suburban split level.
It's so refreshing to watch home decor videos prepared by a truly thorough expert, rather than by newcomers to home decor who throw out run-of-the-mill suggestions that I've heard dozens of times before! You are so appreciated, Lisa! 🏡 😁 👍
Awww Lucy this is too sweet!! 💚 I do my best to give you guys advice you haven't heard - I always want to be as helpful as possible!!! 🌟🌟 Thank you SO much for these kind words - you guys make my day in these comments!!! 🥰💜
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE your energy... I can’t believe I am still watching these after almost 24 hrs.. I am a tired working momma of a toddler and baby.. I need to sleep but these are so much fun and knowledgeable and tips.. 😩🤦♀️🤦♀️
OMG Shivani!!! I am SO GLAD that you are enjoying the videos!!! 💖🤗 Thank you so much for including me in your momma breaks and sending me this sweet comment!!! 🥰💚 Really means a TON to me!!! 😘

I hadn't thought twice about vertical blinds since the 80s, then my son and daughter each bought houses in the past year with, you guessed it!, vertical blinds! I'm recommending this video to each of them.
OMG Ann!! Perfect!! 👏🏻👏🏻 Vertical blinds are DEFINITELY not just for the 80s anymore...there are SO many fabulous options out there that work for SO many styles!! 🌟💜 Congrats on all of the moves in the family, and thank you SO much for tuning in again this week!!! 😘 Love my channel fam!! 💙🥰

Just discovered you on You Tube - what a treasure! You are an incredible resource and teacher! Such a great presence with and incredible level of legitimacy.

I am just about to have roller blinds installed on the arched living room window. Mounted outside. Thinking now that this will give a totally different look to the room. The shade and header are going to stand out and dominate where the inside set of 2 smaller shades were less obvious.
OMG Cathy that is SO exciting!!! Project time!!!! 🤩🤩🧰 So glad I could get this to you RIGHT when you needed it - you know how much I LOVE hearing that!!! 💙😆 Sending you my my BEST for a happy project AND a happy spring - thank's for always being the sweetest!!! 💚🥰💐

Hi Lisa! I've always liked the clean white look of simple Japanese style blinds. Either made of rice paper or bamboo or ratan. I love traditional shutters too, I can't wait!

Everyone we know thinks we’re nuts for swapping out our plantation shutters for top down - bottom up shades. Removing the shutters has opened up our smaller spaces, eliminated all of the constant dusting, and we have more light and more specific privacy 😍✨🙌🏼
Hi Lisa, Another great video. Thanks for them all. I used Silhouette blinds in our old house, and adored the way they look, but they are very difficult to clean, even by professionals. I never had any success with trying to stick the vacuum wand between the vertical layers to suck up the dust and dirt that accumulated on the horizontal slats. One new style of roller blind you didn’t mention was the “zebra blind”, which I have had custom made for all my windows, save my living, dining, family and reception (ie, formal) rooms. I’m hoping this style of blind doesn’t attract, or at least ‘embrace’, the dust, dirt and bugs between them like my Silhouettes did. They are fresh and completely current, light-diffusing, yet provide privacy, and can be constructed as black-out blinds or combined with an integral roller blind. They give a consistency from outside the house, which I think is important. I have had them made to fit inside the window frames, and intend to combine them with drapes, valances and swags in my various rooms - or leave them plain in the smaller bathroom windows, since they have self-headers. My idea is that they will maintain our privacy while letting in lots of sunlight AND provide what is effectively a blank palatte, and, at the same time, texture, for whatever other window treatments I care to add. We shall see! Thanks again or sharing your expertise with us, and in such a delightful way. You are marvellous!
Oooh Lois!!! LOVE this comment - great tip!!! 👏🏻👏🏻There are just SO many different options out there for window treatments...I love that you guys are bringing up some of your favorites that I didn't touch on!! 😍 Sounds like these are working FABULOUSLY with your space - way to go!!! 🤩💙 Thank you SO much for sharing your experience with all of us - this comment section is SO amazing!!! 💚🥰

How many inches between the end of the pole (without the finial) and first bracket? And bracket to the start of the window? Is it ok to place the bracket against the crown molding or does it need to sit below it a few inches?
Awww of course!!! 💕 I LOVE my international channel fam!!! 😍 I've spent a TON of time living overseas myself, so I KNOW the struggles of not being able to get things shipped - I never want to leave you guys out!!! 💙👏🏻👏🏻 Thank you SO much for this super sweet comment...I LOVE hearing that these resources are helpful!! 💚🥰

In contemporary shades, one way to avoid having to do a valance, and also to avoid collisions with casement window hardware, is to do a reverse roll with an inside mounting. It looks a lot sleeker because you can't see the roll itself at the top and it leaves enough space between the shade and the window, so you don't touch any of the hardware.
Yay Susan!! I love hearing that these videos find you guys at the right time...don't you love it when things work out!! 😆💜 If you're looking for even MORE info on window treatment options, definitely make sure you're on the list for the brand new Dezign Club I'm launching this summer!!! 💙🌟 We're going to be diving even deeper into this HUGE topic and making sure you really have all the options in front of you!! 💚 Get on the list at www.lisaholt.com/thedezignclub - I think you might love it!! 🤩💕

There is also Springs window fashion(Bali or Graber) they have very nice shades patterns also Levolor as well which is now under Hunter Douglas because c’mon some people do not want to spend too much on window treatments. Graber is more expensive however the product and customer service is top notch…. Bali’s fabric is amazing also look into pleated shades it’s like a roller but pleated they come in 1 in and 2 in look great and do not cost as much as Roman and roller.
Great video as always! When we were starting out Lowe's had just introduced "cut while you wait" honeycomb Levolors that you DIY install. We needed budget friendly, neutral and insulated, and those things lasted years. They were also sturdier than old school white vinyl roller shades that would occasionally spring up in the middle of the night and scare the kids to pieces!
OMG this is SUCH a great tip!! 💚👏🏻 If you're looking for a budget option this could definitely be the answer...those Levolors can really last forever!! 💜😆 Thank you SO much for this sweet comment, and thanks for sharing your window treatment knowledge - you guys are the best!!! 😘😘
Lisa, you are amazing! You always explain everything in such professional and at the same time fun way! I just found your channel in December and I am so glad I did!

I am your number one fan and subscriber from Venezuela here in South America!
Enid, Welcome to the fun FAM!!!!! I"m so glad you're here, there TONS of fun stuff coming out this year! And,...I think you're representing for Venzuela!!! Love it!!!
Lisa - thank you, thank you, thank you 🥰. I've been pondering what best to do with my kitchen window, it's not really overlooked but I often see people walking through the garden, past my window taking a short cut to the road!!! (I'm in a ground floor flat so the garden isn't just mine). The shade that goes up from the bottom and down from the top looks perfect, light coming in the top and privacy. Who knew these even existed??? You're my hero, again 😂😂
OMG Gail!!! That sounds like a PERFECT option - I'm so glad I mentioned it!! 💜 I'm always hoping these examples find people who need them - it makes my DAY hearing I could help you out!!! 😘😘 What a delicious way to enjoy that garden view without any distractions!! 😆🌷 Thank you SO much for making my day with this sweet comment - happy shades shopping!! 🛍
Hi Lisa! When are you going to upload the last series of window treatment? Please~ I can't wait!!! I just moved in a new house and I need to make a decision to pick which one I should go with.
Thank you! So many options, I'm still working on getting the ceiling curtain rod from the last video, LOL! With baseboard heating, it's a must, my short curtains look frumpy--I'll change things a little at a time. Thanks again, always a bright spot in my day!

I have been binge watching you today. One of the things that have impressed me is that most of your suggestions were mostly possible for most. However ur gushing about The Shade Shop surprised me. Yes,they do a great job. Have used them for a redo(not at the beach) however they are quite expensive. I still think your videos are fantastic. I intend to catch up on all videos. Am extremely impressed by you. Thank you your suggestions and terrific,clear,interesting and definitely up to date. Wish you were in my area. Would love to be able to work with you,unquestionably. Again thank you 👏👏👏👏😘
Yay!!!! Diane, so great to have you as part of the Fam! And if you have a project where you’d like some direct help, consider joining the Dezignclub, I do consulting online to many of the members…it’s fantastic
@@LisaHoltDesign I will certainly keep that in mind. At this time, I am unexpectedly doing major work on two houses in deferent States at the same time. Thank You very much. I binged once again today. You absolutely know your stuff, and you express it extremely well. 👏🔥😘🌹
OMG no prob SCD!!! 💚😘 You know I love making these videos for you guys...can you tell I was having fun with this one??? 😆😆 SO glad that this was a helpful one for you - thanks for being such a fabulous part of the channel fam!!! 💙🥰
Uh oh, I just made the rookie mistake that this video was also about to be about blinds and shutters, too. Will be waiting for part 3! Can’t place an order until I’m clear! The blinds guy does both.
DIY problem solver: If you have a room that doesn't anywhere lend itself to hanging artwork (and you know you need some), bring it to your shade. Here's how: Buy yourself your basic Levlor shade cut to your window size. When you get it home, gently tear the plastic shade from the tube on which it is glued, making sure not to tear the tube that you will need to complete the project. Use the shade as a drop cloth on which to finish the project. Get yourself some Super Glue (not other brands that may ruin your project.) Buy your favorite canvas that you want to use to replace the shade you removed. I recommend a canvas of things you see in the sky, like a beautiful sunset, a blue sky with some popcorn clouds, or maybe some birds or some upper tree limbs (whatever goes with the theme and colors of the room where you will hang the finished shade.) Remove the canvas from the wood frame on which it came. A staple remover or knife probably works best, depending on how the canvas is adhered to the wood frame. Cut the removed canvas to the width of your custom cut shade barrel, making sure that you use that part of the canvas that is the best part for going with your room decor. Glue the cutout canvas to the shade barrel, and hang it as you would any other shade (with the proper mounting brackets), and wahlah! Your previously art sparse room now has art when you pull down your window shade!
I need help with my windows. I live in a house with vents under EVERY SINGLE window so long curtains are a problem. I had short curtains but they looked cheap & horrible. So thank you for this video.
Lisa...thanks, this was so informative! I just spoke with someone about window treatments. It's such a challenge living in a city and ensuring I can let light in but still have privacy. This was very helpful. Hope you're well and thanks again!

THIS IS A BIG ONE GUYS!! 💕💥 You've asked SO much about how to do windows, how to solve window problems, how to design window coverings... and FINALLY here MY take on how designers do window treatments!! Make sure to comment below with any other questions you may have!! 🔥🥰😍
I love the way you explain the difference design with windows
Can you tell me what to do when the windows are vertical to open, can you help me with that type of design, because the shades or curtains get duty on one side. Thank you, I love the way show the difference
Hey, Lisa
I ran the window treatment department of a design center for 32 years. One thing your fans should know : if you're getting an outside mount on a shade, you should have the width 3" wider on each side (6" total) than the window opening for privacy and light control reasons. The gap between the fabric of the shade and the window allows people to see into your home and lets light in as well. Love your videos! Nora

Lisa, Nora, what's your opinion on this: a shade on a window over a radiator could go all the way down to the floor like a drape or stop dead above it? 🤔
@@Amira_Phoenix have to stop above it.👍🏼
How do you choose between an outside and inside mount?
Is it better to mount outside for room darkening?
These videos are absolutely the best source available outside of hiring a designer. The best, most complete, most helpful design information on the internet. Thank you so much Lisa.

Yes please🙏
The examples you show are beautiful, but can you include some “average” homes? It can be hard to translate an example with 20 foot ceilings into a suburban split level.
I agree. Could you consider using homes in the middle income range that are done well with examples?
I agree. Let’s see some east coast rowhomes 1500 sqft or less
@@kendralangdon7316I think those examples stillapply and look just as good.
It's so refreshing to watch home decor videos prepared by a truly thorough expert, rather than by newcomers to home decor who throw out run-of-the-mill suggestions that I've heard dozens of times before! You are so appreciated, Lisa! 🏡 😁 👍

I hadn't thought twice about vertical blinds since the 80s, then my son and daughter each bought houses in the past year with, you guessed it!, vertical blinds! I'm recommending this video to each of them.
OMG Ann!! Perfect!! 👏🏻👏🏻 Vertical blinds are DEFINITELY not just for the 80s anymore...there are SO many fabulous options out there that work for SO many styles!! 🌟💜 Congrats on all of the moves in the family, and thank you SO much for tuning in again this week!!! 😘 Love my channel fam!! 💙🥰

Just discovered you on You Tube - what a treasure! You are an incredible resource and teacher! Such a great presence with and incredible level of legitimacy.

I am just about to have roller blinds installed on the arched living room window. Mounted outside. Thinking now that this will give a totally different look to the room. The shade and header are going to stand out and dominate where the inside set of 2 smaller shades were less obvious.
Budget Blinds is coming to my house next wk for measuring and selection. Perfect timing. Thank you. Happy Passover and Happy Easter, Lisa!
OMG Cathy that is SO exciting!!! Project time!!!! 🤩🤩🧰 So glad I could get this to you RIGHT when you needed it - you know how much I LOVE hearing that!!! 💙😆 Sending you my my BEST for a happy project AND a happy spring - thank's for always being the sweetest!!! 💚🥰💐

Wow.Ms Holt, you are magic! So many great ideas and so considerate of us in Europe!

I’m in the UK and have Intu Blinds. They’re a great option for places where you don’t want holes or screws, like French windows or bi-folds.
Oooh Francesca!! Another great option!!!! 🤩👏🏻 There are SO many out there...just like anything with design, it can be SO hard to choose just one!! 😆💜 Thank you SO much for sharing what you've got working in your home - I love how much we all learn in these comments!!! 🤓📚
I have no idea what an Intu Blind is. Couldn’t find it online. Is there another name for them?

Everyone we know thinks we’re nuts for swapping out our plantation shutters for top down - bottom up shades. Removing the shutters has opened up our smaller spaces, eliminated all of the constant dusting, and we have more light and more specific privacy 😍✨🙌🏼
Hi Lisa, Another great video. Thanks for them all. I used Silhouette blinds in our old house, and adored the way they look, but they are very difficult to clean, even by professionals. I never had any success with trying to stick the vacuum wand between the vertical layers to suck up the dust and dirt that accumulated on the horizontal slats. One new style of roller blind you didn’t mention was the “zebra blind”, which I have had custom made for all my windows, save my living, dining, family and reception (ie, formal) rooms. I’m hoping this style of blind doesn’t attract, or at least ‘embrace’, the dust, dirt and bugs between them like my Silhouettes did. They are fresh and completely current, light-diffusing, yet provide privacy, and can be constructed as black-out blinds or combined with an integral roller blind. They give a consistency from outside the house, which I think is important. I have had them made to fit inside the window frames, and intend to combine them with drapes, valances and swags in my various rooms - or leave them plain in the smaller bathroom windows, since they have self-headers. My idea is that they will maintain our privacy while letting in lots of sunlight AND provide what is effectively a blank palatte, and, at the same time, texture, for whatever other window treatments I care to add. We shall see! Thanks again or sharing your expertise with us, and in such a delightful way. You are marvellous!
Oooh Lois!!! LOVE this comment - great tip!!! 👏🏻👏🏻There are just SO many different options out there for window treatments...I love that you guys are bringing up some of your favorites that I didn't touch on!! 😍 Sounds like these are working FABULOUSLY with your space - way to go!!! 🤩💙 Thank you SO much for sharing your experience with all of us - this comment section is SO amazing!!! 💚🥰

How many inches between the end of the pole (without the finial) and first bracket? And bracket to the start of the window?
Is it ok to place the bracket against the crown molding or does it need to sit below it a few inches?
Thank you for your channel. I used a lot of your advice to make a great look out of my new home.
Albina!! That's AMAZING to hear!! 👏🏼 Thank you so much for this sweet comment and CONGRATS on the new home!! 🥳💜

I’m just pleased to see the dark eyeglasses are back. They have the presence to match your presentation.
LOL J!!! 😆😆 I told you they'd be back!! 💜😉
In contemporary shades, one way to avoid having to do a valance, and also to avoid collisions with casement window hardware, is to do a reverse roll with an inside mounting. It looks a lot sleeker because you can't see the roll itself at the top and it leaves enough space between the shade and the window, so you don't touch any of the hardware.
Such a great tip Steven, thank you so much for sharing!! 👏🏼
Thank you. I needed this. Have old grody blinds i need to replace and am having trouble deciding. Afraid of making an expensive mistake.
Yay Susan!!

Budget Blinds comes to home and does a design consult and quote right there. They carry all brands Hunter Douglas to Springs Window Fashions.
There is also Springs window fashion(Bali or Graber) they have very nice shades patterns also Levolor as well which is now under Hunter Douglas because c’mon some people do not want to spend too much on window treatments. Graber is more expensive however the product and customer service is top notch…. Bali’s fabric is amazing also look into pleated shades it’s like a roller but pleated they come in 1 in and 2 in look great and do not cost as much as Roman and roller.
Great video as always! When we were starting out Lowe's had just introduced "cut while you wait" honeycomb Levolors that you DIY install. We needed budget friendly, neutral and insulated, and those things lasted years. They were also sturdier than old school white vinyl roller shades that would occasionally spring up in the middle of the night and scare the kids to pieces!
OMG this is SUCH a great tip!! 💚👏🏻 If you're looking for a budget option this could definitely be the answer...those Levolors can really last forever!! 💜😆 Thank you SO much for this sweet comment, and thanks for sharing your window treatment knowledge - you guys are the best!!! 😘😘
Lisa, you are amazing! You always explain everything in such professional and at the same time fun way! I just found your channel in December and I am so glad I did!

I am now window ninja! Thank you, LHD!
Lisa - thank you, thank you, thank you 🥰. I've been pondering what best to do with my kitchen window, it's not really overlooked but I often see people walking through the garden, past my window taking a short cut to the road!!! (I'm in a ground floor flat so the garden isn't just mine). The shade that goes up from the bottom and down from the top looks perfect, light coming in the top and privacy. Who knew these even existed??? You're my hero, again 😂😂
OMG Gail!!! That sounds like a PERFECT option - I'm so glad I mentioned it!! 💜 I'm always hoping these examples find people who need them - it makes my DAY hearing I could help you out!!! 😘😘 What a delicious way to enjoy that garden view without any distractions!! 😆🌷 Thank you SO much for making my day with this sweet comment - happy shades shopping!! 🛍

I have been binge watching you today. One of the things that have impressed me is that most of your suggestions were mostly possible for most. However ur gushing about The Shade Shop surprised me. Yes,they do a great job. Have used them for a redo(not at the beach) however they are quite expensive. I still think your videos are fantastic. I intend to catch up on all videos. Am extremely impressed by you.
Thank you your suggestions and terrific,clear,interesting and definitely up to date. Wish you were in my area. Would love to be able to work with you,unquestionably. Again thank you 👏👏👏👏😘

This is so timely. I just called the blinds guy today! Now I know what to ask for.
Uh oh, I just made the rookie mistake that this video was also about to be about blinds and shutters, too. Will be waiting for part 3! Can’t place an order until I’m clear! The blinds guy does both.
LOL Kendra!! 😆 Don't worry - that's exactly why I made this series!! 👏🏻💚 Part three is coming SO soon....stay tuned!! 💕😉
Can't wait for the third part!!
Ooooh Betty me neither!! 💚😆🌟 You guys are going to love it...coming sooooon!! 💙😉
DIY problem solver: If you have a room that doesn't anywhere lend itself to hanging artwork (and you know you need some), bring it to your shade. Here's how: Buy yourself your basic Levlor shade cut to your window size. When you get it home, gently tear the plastic shade from the tube on which it is glued, making sure not to tear the tube that you will need to complete the project. Use the shade as a drop cloth on which to finish the project. Get yourself some Super Glue (not other brands that may ruin your project.) Buy your favorite canvas that you want to use to replace the shade you removed. I recommend a canvas of things you see in the sky, like a beautiful sunset, a blue sky with some popcorn clouds, or maybe some birds or some upper tree limbs (whatever goes with the theme and colors of the room where you will hang the finished shade.) Remove the canvas from the wood frame on which it came. A staple remover or knife probably works best, depending on how the canvas is adhered to the wood frame. Cut the removed canvas to the width of your custom cut shade barrel, making sure that you use that part of the canvas that is the best part for going with your room decor. Glue the cutout canvas to the shade barrel, and hang it as you would any other shade (with the proper mounting brackets), and wahlah! Your previously art sparse room now has art when you pull down your window shade!
Do you have any video to see the prosses?
Thanks
