Wooden window shutters can lose their vibrancy over the years, and can start to look lackluster. Today, there’s a solution to refreshing and reviving existing shutters. Refinishing and repainting wooden shutters has become quite popular in recent times, and the results are quite remarkable.

For many homeowners, the idea of reviving window shutters emerges when interior decorating or remodeling is in the works. Suddenly it becomes obvious that the shutters need to be renewed. The good news is that many shutters can be beautifully refurbished instead of being replaced.

What’s most important when refinishing and repainting wooden shutters is to have it done by a professional firm. Craftsman Shutters & Blinds provides that type of high quality refurbishing, with a professional touch, and with results that are sometimes even better than the original.

How To Fit Roller Blinds To UPVC Windows Without Drilling

Roller blinds are a great way to add privacy and style to your windows. However, many homeowners with uPVC windows are hesitant to drill into their frames to install them. Luckily, there are alternative methods to fit roller blinds to uPVC windows without drilling. In this blog, we will detail the steps to achieve this.

Step 1: Measure the Window

Before purchasing any roller blinds, it's important to measure your window accurately. Use a measuring tape to measure the width and length of the window recess, as well as the depth. This will give you the measurements you need to purchase the correct size roller blind.

Step 2: Choose the Right Type of Roller Blind

There are several types of roller blinds that can be fitted to uPVC windows without drilling. These include:

Self-adhesive blinds: These blinds come with an adhesive backing that sticks directly to the window frame. They are easy to install and can be removed without leaving any residue.

Tensioned blinds: These blinds use tension to hold them in place. They are easy to install and can be adjusted to fit different window sizes.

Magnetic blinds: These blinds use magnets to attach to the window frame. They are easy to install and can be removed without leaving any marks.

Step 3: Clean the Window Frame

Before installing your roller blind, make sure the window frame is clean and dry. Use a damp cloth to wipe away any dirt or dust. This will ensure that the adhesive or magnets will stick properly.

Step 4: Install the Roller Blind

Now it's time to install the roller blind. Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, as the installation process may differ depending on the type of blind you choose.

Self-adhesive blinds: Remove the backing paper from the adhesive strip and press the blind firmly onto the window frame. Hold it in place for a few seconds to ensure a strong bond.

Tensioned blinds: Extend the blind to fit the window recess and press the tension brackets into place. Adjust the blind until it is level and secure.

Magnetic blinds: Position the blind on the window frame and attach the magnets. Make sure they are aligned properly to ensure a secure fit.

Step 5: Adjust and Enjoy

Once your roller blind is installed, you can adjust it to your desired position. Whether you want to let in more light or increase privacy, roller blinds are a versatile window covering option that can be adjusted to suit your needs.

In conclusion, fitting roller blinds to uPVC windows without drilling is a straightforward process. By following the steps outlined above, you can achieve a professional-looking installation without damaging your window frames. Whether you choose self-adhesive, tensioned or magnetic blinds, you can enjoy the benefits of roller blinds without the need for drilling.

[2024.10.15] BRUTUS November 1, 2024 issue No. 1018 - Beautiful Architecture and Windows

OPEN MY WINDOW Open your own window. Hanyu Yuzuru special photoshoot.

Yuzuru Hanyu Hanyu Yuzuru / Born in Miyagi Prefecture in 1994. He won two consecutive gold medals in men's singles figure skating at the Sochi 2014 and Pyeongchang 2018 Olympics. He has also won numerous World Championships and Grand Prix Finals. In 2018, he received the People’s Honor Award. After turning professional in July 2022, he became a producer and held three solo shows, including "GIFT" and "RE_PRAY." He also has a picture book titled "GIFT" (text: Yuzuru Hanyu, illustrations: CLAMP).

What do you see from your window, Hanyu-san?

One summer day in a house studio, Yuzuru Hanyu was sitting by the window. He gazed at the garden, which glistens in the quiet sunlight shining through the trees. Behind the sound of the shutter, Erik Satie’s "Gymnopédie No. 1," which he had selected from his iPhone playlist, was playing on the portable speaker.

"During shoots, I always choose a song that suits the situation and the intention for each shot. Since turning professional, I've had more opportunities to be photographed not just as an athlete, but as a person and an artist, and each time I am reminded of how many people put in a lot of time and effort to create a single photograph. When I heard that today’s theme from BRUTUS was 'windows,' I approached the shoot as if I were trying to fit myself into a crafted story."

At the beginning of the score for "Gymnopédie No. 1," the performance instructions read, "Slowly, with sorrow." The gentle yet melancholic melody resonates with the struggles a skater must have faced both physically and mentally, before and after achieving glory. Hanyu-san, what do you see from your window?

"When I used to live in Toronto, my house was on a high floor of a building, so I could see the whole city. It was raining in the areas covered by clouds, but I often saw rainbows in the gaps between the clouds where it wasn’t raining at all. That scene left a strong impression on me. I also can’t forget the view I saw from the airplane window during overseas trips. Whether it was on my way to Europe or coming back, I can’t recall clearly, but the plane was flying above the clouds, and only the moon shone brightly amidst the surrounding darkness. The brightness of the moon made it impossible to see the stars, and that scene was so beautiful that I rested my forehead against the window and gazed at it for a long time."

A town in the rain and with a rainbow. Darkness and moonlight. Even these scenes seem to suggest the journey he has taken so far. During the photo shoot, Hanyu was photographed from both inside and outside the window, but which side does he prefer?

"Personality-wise, I guess I'm the type who likes to keep to myself. I'm an introspective person, and I've often thought deeply about myself and people since I was little, so in that sense I might be the type of person who prefers to close the window and focus on being alone. However, I believe that even the most sociable and cheerful people need personal space and sometimes want to close all the windows. But those windows must have handles on them, so that when the time comes, someone else can open it for them, or they can open it themselves… That's what I was hoping to express in that window-shoot I did earlier."

He announced his transition to a professional career in July 2022. It was a declaration of his unwavering commitment to move forward. Although he stepped away from the competitive world where he compared himself to others, his battle with himself continues as he strives for even greater heights. He has already achieved three solo shows, a first in the figure skating world, all of which were a huge success. If we were to compare Hanyu to a house, would it be that he didn’t move to a new house when he turned professional; rather, the house itself remains the same, but the direction the window opens and the view from it have changed?

"Well, it’s true that my fundamental personality hasn't changed at all from before I started skating to the present. I have always been inquisitive and curious, often wondering, 'What is a human being?' In that sense, it is the same house. I probably have windows facing all directions, and I probably hang blackout curtains over them. Sometimes I want to feel the morning sun coming through the east-facing window, and other times I don't want to see anything and keep all the curtains closed. I think humans, myself included, are very selfish and interesting, and sometimes we wish to be part of society, and sometimes we just want to shut ourselves away in solitude. When I'm on tour, I might close the curtains. I want to block out the noise around me, concentrate on myself, and deliver a good performance. Afterwards, I'll secretly lift the curtains to see how the audience reacts (laughs)."

In his solo performance tour "RE_PRAY" from 2023 to 2024, Hanyu himself became the protagonist of a role-playing game, blending skating performances and videos to express a world of opposites, such as success and failure, life and death, light and darkness, and game-over and continue. This unprecedented ice show struck a universal chord with audiences from all walks of life, touching their hearts. What’s next for Hanyu, who always exceeds the expectations of his fans?

“I can’t reveal the details... but I’m constantly thinking about new songs and programs. I said earlier that I haven't changed, but since I became a professional, the way I spend my time has obviously changed, and I don't have time to just sit idle anymore. This year I turn 30, and every day I reflect deeply on what I’ve worked hard for nearly 30 years and the meaning of my existence now.”

After the interview, we returned to the studio for the rest of the shoot, where we could hear Matsutoya Yumi's "Yasashisa ni Tsutsumareta Nara" playing in the background. "Open the curtains..." Perhaps now is the time to open windows in various directions and take in new input in anticipation of the next step. I tell myself that everything I see is a message.

goodbyes

September 9, 2022

Luke, Jack, Quinn and her parents had all joined her to help her get moved into her new apartment a few days before camp started and then preseason, Luke had already started school but took a few days off to make sure he was there to help his twin.

Octavia had bought an apartment that was mostly furnished already only really needing to get anything else if she didn’t like something already. She got a three bedroom and two bath apartment. One bedroom for her, A guest bedroom and a then the last room she turned in into her art room so she has somewhere she can do her art.

She loved the really old and industrial look the apartment had and the large windows that gives a great view of Toronto, she’s just on the edge of the city so she is close to everything she needs to get to but not in the busy part of the city.

Octavia and Luke the past summer have been very stuck to each other, once Octavia told her family she wasn’t going back to Michigan next year and would be going to go play with the leafs the twins have kinda dreaded the day they would be split since.

Octavia and Luke were sharing her bed, Ellen and Jim in the guest rooms and Quinn and Jack on the coaches in the living rooms. Octavia could feel Luke stiring around instead of peacefully sleeing she turned over facing her twin, “What’s wrong Lucky?”

Luke pursued his lips rubbing a hand thought his messy curls, “What if we drift apart Win?” His whisper cut thought the silence of the room, his voice cracking with emotion.

Octavia felt her fact soften she scooted closed to her brother resting her head on his shoulder linking their pinky’s together, “I promise you Luke that could never happen, your my best friend and my other half.” Octavia softly spoke to her best friend. Showing emotion has always been more easier for her with Luke but with anyone else it’s always been more uncomfortable.

“Ok. I promise too.” Luke held his twin sister tightly for the remainder of the night not wanting to think how he’s leaving in the morning.

The morning came around way too fast and Octavia and Luke were already awake both dreading to get out of bed knowing what’s to come. They could smell the coffee being made from their parents and the footsteps of Quinn and Jack walking.

Octavia let out a sigh before forcing herself to get out of bed she put her hand out for Luke who took it and got out as well. They both got ready for the day before linking their hands and walking out to the kitchen where their family was.

Ellen frowned seeing her twins both look so sad and gripping each other and couldn’t feel heartbroken for the two.

Octavia led Luke to her coffee machine pouring herself a giant cup into her mug as Luke stood next to her.

The twins sat together on the couch cuddled for the next hour before they had to leave.

“Alright we’ve got to get going.” Ellen frowned looking at Luke and Octavia.

Luke and Octavia shared a look before forcing themselves to let go of each other so Octavia could say her goodbyes to the rest of their family.

Octavia hugged Jack tightly, “Don’t hesitate to call alright.” Jack whispered not wanting his sister to have a hard time alone and in her rookie year.

Octavia relaxed in Quinn’s hug and hugged him back, they didn’t need to talk the silence being more than enough.

Octavia hugged her mother and let her mother smoother her in affection because Octavia knows how much her mother misses her kids most of the year.

Octavia hugged her dad and nodded to everything he was telling her before letting go and turning to the last person not wanting to say her goodbyes to him.

Octavia took a shuttering breath trying not to break down crying. Luke and Octavia looked at each other before lunging at each other and tightly hugging each other. Luke took a deep breath feeling the tears already down his face and Octavia could feel her eyes filled with tears.

“Tell me everything?” Luke softly asked feeling the tears not stopping.

“Only if you tell me everything.” Octavia whispered back feeling her cheeks covered with tears and not wanting to pull away from her twin yet.

“And enjoy it ok, no one is more proud of you than i am.” Luke whispered feeling bad that Octavia start of her dream has been so sad for her. “I love you Winnie.” Luke pressed a kiss to the side of her head.

“I love you more Lucky.” Octavia chocked out gripping her brother tightly.

The twins slowly let go of each other staring at each other with shaking jaws trying not to cry more, The twins did their handshake once more before Octavia nodded turning around slighty not wanting to see Luke leave.

The rest of the family has stepped outside letting the twins say their goodbyes alone.

Luke walked to the door taking one more look at his twin sister before closing the door behind her, Luke felt Jack out his arm around his shoulder as they walked out.

Octavia held one hand of over heart feeling immense pain and one hand over her mouth to silence her cry’s.

Octavia held her moon necklace between her fingers as she watched from the window watching her family get into the car and star driving away. Octavia closed her eyes taking a deep breath trying to stop the tears from falling again.

Of course Octavia misses her older brothers during the season when they are away but she’s use to them being away and she missed her parents when she went to collage but they were only a quick drive away, but Luke she’s the most she had been away from him was for two weeks when he was injured and couldn’t join the hockey tournament but the twins have been glued to each others sides forever, they have always been together and not she’s starting a new chapter in her life and for once she’s alone.

Octavia stood by the windows for what felt like hours before dragging herself to her room and getting under the covers and crying and sitting in silence for the rest of the day.

Waking up the next morning in an empty apartment all alone and caked on dried tears all over her face.

Top Tips for Cleaning and Maintaining Your Blinds

Your blinds are an essential part of your home’s interior, offering privacy, light control, and style. Whether you have elegant California shutters, convenient motorized blinds, versatile zebra blinds, or chic roller shades, keeping them clean and well-maintained is crucial to ensure they remain functional and beautiful. Here are some practical tips for cleaning and maintaining various window treatments, from custom blinds to outdoor blinds, so they look fresh year-round.

1. Regular Dusting for All Blinds

One of the simplest ways to keep your window coverings pristine is regular dusting. For blinds, vertical blinds, sheers, and zebra blinds, use a microfiber cloth or a soft duster weekly. Run the cloth gently over the slats, or use a vacuum with a brush attachment on the lowest setting to avoid damaging delicate materials. Dusting is especially important for areas like Mississauga, Toronto, and Oakville, where city dust and debris can accumulate quickly.

2. Spot Cleaning for Fabric Shades and Drapes

If you have drapes, dream shades, or fabric-based window treatments, spot cleaning is the safest method for addressing stains. Use a mild detergent and a soft cloth, gently dabbing the stain to avoid spreading it further. For persistent stains, consult a professional cleaner, especially for high-quality custom blinds from a reputable blinds store.

3. Deep Clean Your Blinds with Soapy Water

For deep cleaning, outdoor blinds, roller shades, and California shutters can benefit from a gentle soapy water wash:

Step 1: Mix mild dish soap with warm water in a bucket.

Step 2: Use a soft sponge or cloth to wipe each slat, moving side to side to avoid bending or damaging them.

Step 3: Rinse with clean water and pat dry with a lint-free cloth. Avoid over-wetting as excessive moisture can cause warping or discoloration.

This method is especially useful for outdoor blinds, which are more exposed to dirt and environmental factors.

4. Cleaning Motorized Blinds

Motorized blinds are highly convenient, but they require a gentle touch. Regular dusting is best to prevent buildup around the motorized components. Avoid using water near the motor, and if needed, a slightly damp cloth can be used on the slats or fabric areas. It’s also a good idea to periodically check the battery and remote function for smooth operation.

5. Maintaining Sheers and Light Fabrics

Sheers and other light fabrics can often be machine-washed if they’re labeled as machine-washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and air dry them to prevent shrinking. Always read the manufacturer’s care instructions to ensure you’re cleaning them correctly. Sheers are delicate, so handle them carefully to avoid tearing.

6. Avoid Harsh Chemicals

For all blinds and window treatments, including roller shades, California shutters, and zebra blinds, avoid harsh chemicals like bleach or ammonia-based cleaners, as these can cause discoloration and weaken the material. Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners that won’t damage the finish or fabric of your blinds.

7. Rotate and Inspect Your Blinds Regularly

For vertical blinds, periodically rotating the slats and checking for any damage or loose attachments helps maintain their longevity. Similarly, for California shutters and custom blinds, inspect the hinges, handles, and fixtures to ensure they’re in top condition. Tighten any loose screws and replace any broken parts to keep them functioning smoothly.

8. Protect Outdoor Blinds from Extreme Weather

If you have outdoor blinds, particularly in areas like Mississauga, Toronto, and Oakville, where weather can vary dramatically, take steps to protect them. During heavy rain, snow, or extreme heat, retract or cover them when possible. This helps prevent wear and tear from the elements, extending their lifespan.

9. Professional Cleaning for a Fresh Look

For high-quality treatments like custom blinds, drapes, or complex styles like zebra blinds, consider professional cleaning at least once a year. Many window treatment stores offer professional cleaning services to deep clean and maintain more delicate materials, keeping them looking fresh and vibrant.

10. Use a Protective Spray for Fabric Blinds

If your blinds are made from fabric, using a fabric protector spray can help repel dust and stains. This is especially useful for custom blinds and dream shades that are exposed to frequent use. Test the spray on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn’t affect the color or material.

Maintaining your blinds doesn’t have to be a chore. With regular care and a few simple techniques, your window coverings—whether they’re stylish zebra blinds, sturdy California shutters, or modern motorized blinds—can continue to enhance your home’s aesthetic and functionality.
