"We want to install our own motorized blinds!"

Pickled Vegetables Daily LifeI prefer salty and classic dishes, and because I had seen Manshibuti's matte wooden blinds at a friend's house, I felt the texture perfectly suited my needs; plus, almost all of Manshibuti's curtain styles can be upgraded to...Electric curtainsThis further resonates with Zhong Xian, who is already a fan of smart home living.

1. Organize usage requirements and confirm interior style.

I did a lot of research beforehand and even visited friends' homes with different decorating styles, so I did my homework on heavy salt and classic dishes.Regarding their daily usage needs and desired interior designThey have a very good understanding of the style."Confirming the style is very important; it makes the combination of hardware and software easier and prevents regrets."Chong Xian said this.

Buying a house and decorating it are both major expenses. Rather than constantly wanting to change things after moving in, I highly recommend spending some time gathering information and organizing your needs from the beginning. Confirming your preferred style will make communication with the designer smoother later, ensuring that both the hardware and software are done right the first time. This saves time and allows for more precise spending.Over time, this will make living comfortable and aesthetically pleasing.

The spaces where new curtains need to be installed are the living room and the master bedroom. It was decided from the beginning that the living room curtains would be the ones seen at a friend's house.Flat wooden louversWhen choosing other curtains, they also pay close attention to salty and old-fashioned flavors.The following usage requirements have been prepared in advance.Discuss and select suitable curtain styles with an interior designer:

① Future plans include using smart homes.As a smart home enthusiast, Chongxian already has the habit of using Google smart speakers for voice control and has planned to use more smart home appliances in the future, including electric curtains. She has also asked the designer to reserve sockets above the living room windows.

② Create a photo backgroundDue to work requirements, Lao Cai needed a beautiful corner with a white background to take a lot of photos → In addition to the motorized wooden blinds, the living room was also fitted with a hand-pulled white gauze curtain.

③ The bedroom needs blackoutBecause of work, I sometimes don't get ready to sleep until late at night, so the bedroom curtains need to effectively block out sunlight during the day. → Some prefer blackout zebra blinds with manual or electric systems, while others are considering blackout honeycomb blinds for better light blocking.

Of course, you don't need to have the skills of an experienced cook to do the measurements yourself and save money. The Manshroom website provides complete information on this topic.MeasureIt can be done in three simple steps:

Step 1. Measure the maximum flat area where the curtains can be installed.
Step 2. Determine the size of the area to be covered within this range = Curtain size
Step 3. Start choosing your favorite curtain items.

When measuring curtains, it is recommended to do so during the construction phase.Interior decoration (walls, floors, cabinets, air conditioning, carpentry, etc.) projectsThis should be done at the end, when preparing to begin the finishing touches, such as applying putty and painting. This ensures that the space around the window will not change, thus avoiding dimensional errors in the installation area.

3Order through the official website

After selecting the style and size of the curtains,Chongxian and Laocai returned to the Manshibuti official website to inquire about prices and place orders. Curtains are completely custom-made products, so confirming the size and details is very important; otherwise, they may not be able to be installed due to size incompatibility.

Thus, inAfter placing an order on the official website, customer service personnel will proactively contact you to assist in confirming the size details of your order.For example, double-checking whether there is enough space for installation and the color matching of parts to ensure that the product is correct when it is delivered to your home.

◆Living room curtains: motorized wooden Venetian blinds + manual sheer curtains

Wooden Venetian blinds are heavier than other blind styles due to the weight of their timbers; therefore, a motorized system is highly recommended for saving time and effort. Besides a remote control, you can also...Includes MotionBlinds App Use your phone to control the curtain height and adjust the slat angle; you can also connect to Google.

The blackout honeycomb blinds also feature a motorized system and can be remotely controlled via a mobile app. You can operate the honeycomb blinds in the bedroom with your phone, whether you are in the living room or out.
