Hey bountyhtr,
Cool name and great question!
Blinds are my favorite part of our stores and my favorite thing to help redo in the house, so you've come to the right place. :)
Have you thought up some ideas for what type of blinds you're looking at going with? Some things to keep in mind are:
As far as measuring the windows out, it's a pretty simple ordeal as long as you have the right tools. Make sure you do all your measurements with a metal tape measure. Don't skimp on it by using string or roll-tape, they don't provide accurate measurements. Also make sure you've got pen and paper handy to write everything down too.
Let me link you over to another write up I did on measuring, which also includes a quick video of yours truly showing you some quick tips.
Check it out here, Quick Measuring Tips for Blinds.
Also keep in mind that we do offer professional measure and install services too, so give that some thought as well. Check our installation page for current pricing or promotions and stop by your local store.
Be sure to let me know if you have any other questions, or to update us on the project! We love seeing pictures of renovations here~ :)
