Curtains and venetian blinds have both plus and minus points. In my view curtains brighten up a house each room having a colour to match other items in that room.
The minus point is that one needs two sets as when they are removed to get them laundered they have to be replaced by another set. Venetian Blinds on the contrary can be cleaned and/or dusted without having to remove them. No doubt Venetian blinds do not add colour but they protect one from the sun. The disadvantage of Blinds is that they can go out of commission - the blades may need replacement and also the mechanism that lets them open and close Many a time one does not get the services of those from where these blinds are bought. Also it is possible blades for replacement may not be available.
The fact of the matter is both curtains and Venetian Blinds are in use and they end up being a personal choice.
What is your choice and why?
