The best white tipped bicolors?
Comments (11)Yes, Poochella, I am having an excellent year over here on the Island! I had both knees replaced last year so I am really enjoying gardening again! Planted 130 tubers this year, and have divisions still sprouting in the pile of excesses that i think I will go throw into the ground just in case one of them is a replacement for something I love that did not come up. I also bought one of those "Dinnerplate" mixes at Costco, and am enjoying seeing what blooms from it. So far I have a very pretty soft lavender, and a bright yellow. I have cut about a dozen dahlias all ready and look forward to the full spread of them! My older son is getting married at the end of August and guess who is doing the flowers? Yup! So I have planted a number in the peach/pink or deep purple range for that. Of course nothing is more beautiful then Hillcrest Kismet, but one needs the color in other sizes and shapes too. What do you do specifically for earwigs? I wish they would leave my Bert Pitt alone! I do garden organically but these little monsters are defeating me because you never see them, only the damage....See MoreHow to choose window shades/blinds
Comments (10)I have sort of the same issue.. I have wooden blinds with stationary drapery panels to either side. I love the blinds for their function, but something is missing. What I am considering is placing those bamboo woven roman shades OVER my blinds (in your case, the cellular shades), and leaving my drapes to each side. That would finish my look off, and would bring some nice texture in for you. The roman shades would be are just for looks and won't be pulled up and down, so they would be hung so the cellulars are hidden under the romans when the cellulars are pulled up. I can't tell if your cellulars are inside or outside mounted. If they are outside like my blinds, you are going to have to put a 2x4 or something behind the romans before you put them up so that the romans stand proud of the cellulars. Additionally, the drapes may also need to come forward in order to clear both.. I am considering buying a double curtain rod and using just the front rod, OR using those plant hook brackets. I've used them as drapery rod holders before when I lived in an apartment, and they worked quite well. Actually, I used a spray painted length of iron pipe as the actual drapery rod. Can you tell I had a tiny budget then? :) This was kind of long, hope it makes sense!...See MoreChoosing cellular shades for sliding balcony door and window
Comments (5)Thanks. not exactly blocking completely or I would have gone with black out. but don't want it look like dracula's castle:). I do love black outs for bedroom. but for LR/DR it is a bit trickier. funny, I did put both samples of the double cell and single cell side by side against my window and they did not appear that much different. more "gradient" if you will. but maybe this isn't a good way to test?...See MoreTwo shades of white sheers.

Comments (5)The drapes are a tan/ light brown (Picture attached) and the bedding is a shade of white which is in between the two shades of white sheers, doesn’t match either exactly but is closer to true white...See Morebondia
