Having just visited the site I assumed it was mandatory, along with taking really dark pictures of hideous shower curtains!

Thanks all,

Here's me trying to start a drapery making business here in Canada, and trying to get all these Canadians to create a home and not an office!!!

Hate those blinds

I just realised I lied. So I do have a curtain in my house. Who'd have thought of including the shower curtain in one's calculations? Wonder if you can have 'shower blinds' ?

Curtains are easier for spying on the neighbours without getting caught!
One strange and very very boring fact is that most curtains (panels) seem to be sold individually rather than in a pair
I'll get my coat, "TAXI!!!"

Yes, we love the kiddie toys strewn around the rooms, the dishes in the sink, the God-awful 70's style wallpaper and the rusting trucks in the driveway.

Just makes us want to dive in there and buy. Now where did we pack that disinfectant?

ps: Forget blinds and go for that old fashion favourite: Net curtains!

Roller shutters! A very popular window dresser over here. Especially in the less well-heeled estates.
