Blinds Or Nothing

Do you have blinds on your windows for privacy or do you prefer nothing? I have faux wood blinds in the living room but sometimes we leave them open all the time. Bedrooms all have regular mini blinds and they are closed at night, Sitting Room has regular blinds that are closed at night. Kitchen has no blinds and Morning Room has regular blinds that are closed at night. We live in the country but our neighbors are "weird" and with the trees' leaveas falling off, we can see their house, so we do close them to the back of the house.

window with no curtain - blinds, window covering, window quilts, curtains, drapes, all associated with the covering of a window
we have no curtains, we are 1000 feet from the road and solar and wind powered so the sun shining in during the winter is important. We can enjoy so much wildlife and keep an eye our for the critters doing the interesting things that they do.

I love enjoying the wildlife too. We had a pole light put up and it shines right in our front Living Room windows so I do close the blinds at night but wish I could leave them open.

Window Quilt - Window blinds known as "window quilts".
I live in town, so blinds are definitely a must here. Our front windows, in the living room and front bedroom are about 7' wide and have "window quilt" blinds. They are insulated to keep out the heat in the summer and keep in the heat in the winter. The other rooms have mini blinds.

yes, we've got blinds in the lounge and kept it a bit open whole day then have to close it again during night time. We also have it on the bathroom. Blinds are mainly for privacy purposes for us.
