Outdoor Patio Window Shades Transforms Your Patio Into Cozy Anytime Of Day

By: Terry Schierer

Outdoor Patio window shades allowed me to transform a seldom used space in our home into not only a useful but if I do say so myself, an exceptionally cozy and comfortable one.

You see in our home we have a problem. My wife likes the air conditioner on all the time. We live in South Florida where it is usually warm. During our winter when the temperatures are usually around the 75 to 80 degrees, I would prefer to leave the air conditioning off, open the window and let mother nature come on in.

The temperature and the humidity in the home are two things my wife wants to control as best she can. My wife has allergies and by keeping the air conditioner running she eliminated a lot of her sneezing and eye watering problems.

Now being a good husband and not wanting to fight with my wife over the air conditioning all the time I decided to make use of our patio. It wasn't air conditioned. It was outdoors where mother nature reigns supreme and best of all I could watch the birds and squirrel's while I am writing or reading, my two favorite pastimes.

The only problem with this whole scenario is that the porch faces South East and when the sun comes up until about two o'clock in the afternoon the glare from the sun is unbearable and makes the porch useless as far as working and relaxing.

Outdoor Patio Window Shades to the rescue. These good looking blinds allowed me to use my patio anytime I want and best of all put me in control of the light effects for my new "studio".

WOW! I can't tell you what a difference they make. What freedom. This new studio gives me freedom to do what I want whenever I want. I was finally in control of my studio.

I discovered that with the outdoor patio window shades I could even shoot the short video's I use on my website out there and what a great backdrop my back yard makes. I can sit relaxed and talk to my viewers in an outdoor atmosphere.

The outdoor patio window shades I chose came in sixteen colors, way more than I needed. I guess they need to have that many colors to please some of the discriminating designers that are using them for their customers and for their own homes.

When I don't need them, I can raise them up out of sight and out of mind. They have a clutch type system that raises and lowers them with little effort.

I'm so glad we converted our porch to "useful". My wife is grateful also. The best thing about this is that we don't argue about the air conditioner anymore.

What about you? Isn't it time you transformed your porch to "useful"? You can even make it into a great little hideaway where you can tell the cares of the day to get lost. You can unwind, relax and just plain "chill out".

Outdoor patio window shades just could be what you're looking for to transform your porch into something useful and cozy.
