    Location: PA | I have metal Venetian blinds in my LQ. I would like to replace them with a day/night pull down shade that I used to have in my previous LQ. can you help me find a source for the day/night shades?
I'd also like to know if this is something I can install myself. I am not very technical, but I can hang blinds in a house. Is installing blinds in a LQ similar?
Thanks for your help |

 Location: illinois | We ordered our day/night shades from Jazz sales. Very happy with the shades and service. You just call in the measurements and then they can tell you the cost. We price shades at different stores including Home Depot I am pretty sure the price was better at Jazz Sales. Good Luck! |

     Location: Texas | your regular basic pull down roller shades are at Walmart, Home Depot etc. My trailer came with those, and I was going to replace them, as I thought they were ugly....
....but, I had a brainstorm, and decided to just paint them. Found info on line, and they said use Acrylic art paint. I did that, and they turned out really cute! Each is different.
I am not artistic, so I found clip art on line, traced outlines, and just filled them in solid. I have a bronc and cowboy, some running horses, and a pony express rider.

Here is link to the pix. Disregard the holding tank pix, that is an issue in itself, and will post my "fix" at some point.
