From Just Right Blinds & Shutters – A HUNTER DOUGLAS Distributor in Wheaton, IL
While smaller homes are becoming more popular, large-scale master bedrooms continue remain on-trend as they offer an escape from the real world. Sally Morse, Director of Creative Services for window fashions leader provides the following tips on how to create the perfect retreat in your bedroom:
• Atmosphere: Leave the world, and the items that remind you of it, outside where they belong. Your master bedroom should be tidy and clutter-free, offering a place to de-stress and find solace. Replace cell phones and computers better suited for a home office with candles and photos of loved ones.
• Furniture: Keeping with the streamlined look, furnish the room with essential elements only. An oversized bed with lots of pillows offers a comfortable escape and focal point. Additional furnishings such as “his and hers” bedside tables provide a place for personal items and an armoire can host a television, decorative books and photographs.
• Window Treatments: The right window treatments can soften harsh light and provide privacy and noise control for a restful environment and maybe even a touch of romance. Products such as Silhouette® window shadings from Just Right Blinds & Shutters a Hunter Douglas distributor, diffuse light through two fabric layers for a warm glow and calming effect. The shadings’ rotating fabric vanes have the added benefit of allowing one to manage the amount of incoming light and close when complete privacy and light control are needed. Silhouette shadings also absorb up to 30 percent of reflected sound.
• Decorative Accents: Inviting, yet soothing colors such as soft yellows and warm blues invoke a sense of calm and happiness. A fresh coat of paint in these colors can dramatically alter the look of a room. Add an inspirational element using paintings from places around the world where you have traveled or hope to.
• Bath: Luxury still resonates with the master bath. “His and hers” vanities remain popular as do relaxing soaking tubs. Scented candles and oversized, fluffy towels add both a functional element and serene setting.
With these tips, you will be dreaming in your bedroom both night and day.

THE INCREDIBLE POWER OF COLOR IN HUNTER DOUGLAS BLINDS & SHUTTERS HELP EXPRESS INDIVIDUALITY WITH HOMEOWNERS
The right color brings out the beauty of furnishings and enhances a room’s décor. Silhouette window shades and Vignette roman shades coordinate beautifully with current trends.
Barbara Schirmeister color design consultant for Hunter Douglas defines the 2010 palette as combinations of classic and contemporary, cool and warm, quiet and vibrant and stable and unpredictable. When asked for the number one color combination for the year, Barbara stated, “A gamut of blues (Including both blue-greens and purple hues) balanced with warm yellows, oranges and pinks. Barbara also mentioned these important trends: layering and texture, metallic’s, less of matching colors and more unexpected pairings."
Today’s top colors:
Purple – grayed out violet, redder plumbs
Blue is new green – soft watery blues and vibrant sky blues
Grays and cooled down browns. Yellow for energy.
Brighter accents – oranges, turquoises and teals, red and yellow abound
White is now a business color
Mauve is an older color – works as an accent

HOW TO SAVE UP TO 25% ON HEATING COSTS THIS WINTER
Duette® honeycomb shades from Hunter Douglas stop heat loss, may earn energy
tax credit
Just Right Blinds, Wheaton, IL . . . As the temperature drops to single digits and below, shivering homeowners learn the hard way that frosty window surfaces draw out lots of heat. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that indoor heat escaping through cold window glass accounts for 10 to 25 percent of home heating bills.
A cost effective and green solution is to install energy efficient window treatments with a high insulating R-value. R-value measures an item’s resistance to heat flow, so a high R-value window covering will keep heat inside, helping homeowners stay more comfortable without cranking up the thermostat.
“An R-value of 4.8 will more than double the energy efficiency of a double-glazed window, and will nearly quadruple the efficiency of a single pane of glass,” says Todd Zimmerman, owner of Just Right Blinds, a Hunter Douglas distributor in Wheaton, IL. “Hunter Douglas offers a 3-layer Duette honeycomb shade with a 4.8 R-value, making it one of the most energy efficient window coverings on the market. These shades have been shown to protect against heat passing through windows by as much as 76 percent.”
To understand how the Duette’s pleated honeycomb design holds in heat, picture the difference between a flat piece of fabric and a multi-layered, three-dimensional fold. That’s exactly what young architect and inventor Wendell Colson did while enduring a winter night in Massachusetts during the depths of the 1970’s energy crisis. “As I was shivering in bed, a double curtain came together in a folding pattern with a honeycomb-like configuration, capturing air between the folds,” says Colson, now Senior VP of Product Development for Hunter Douglas. “I saw this vertically, but I thought if we put it together horizontally you would have a highly energy-efficient treatment because air would literally be trapped in the honeycomb cells.”
Certain Hunter Douglas Duette honeycomb shades may also qualify for the federal energy tax credit of up to $1500. “Homeowners need to save their original product purchase receipts,” says Zimmerman of Just Right Blinds, “and go to the Hunter Douglas website for more information and manufacturer’s certification statements that they can provide for their tax professional.”
In addition to saving energy costs and providing a possible green tax credit, Hunter Douglas Duette shades are available in a wide variety of colors, fabrics and hardware options, as well as in single, double and triple honeycomb layers. Shades are anti-static, dust and stain resistant and virtually maintenance free, plus they are backed by a limited lifetime warranty. “You can make your home warmer this winter, save on heating costs, and enjoy a fashionable addition to your home décor,” says Zimmerman. “It’s a great package of benefits in a single product.”
Just Right Blinds provides free in-home consultation, free measurements and free installation for blinds and shutters. Call Todd Zimmerman at 630-292-3756 or visit www.JustRightBlinds.vpweb.com.

In addition to saving energy costs and providing a possible green tax credit, Hunter Douglas Duette shades are available in a wide variety of colors, fabrics and hardware options, as well as in single, double and triple honeycomb layers. Shades are anti-static, dust and stain resistant and virtually maintenance free, plus they are backed by a limited lifetime warranty. “You can make your home warmer this winter, save on heating costs, and enjoy a fashionable addition to your home décor,” says Zimmerman. “It’s a great package of benefits in a single product.”
