[VAC] Re: Window treatments

[Roy Lashway <rlashway@xxxxxxxxxx>]

We added aluminum, 1/2' ven. blinds from Home Depot.  The blinds have 
small plastic holders that can be attached to wall to hold  clips on 
bottom of blind .  This holds blind into the wall at bottom.  Works out 
good so check them out although the windows are rather small on the '56 
so they hung with out much vertical sad. 

  To get some curtain effect around windows you might check out my web 
site and the treatment around our windows.  I acquired some thin card 
board type material from an upholstery shop to which we glued (used 
fabric glue) decorative fabic and then pop riveted the board material to 
the trailer wall.  What you see on ours is a ruffled  trim material used 
for edging for quilts but any kind of material could be used.  If you 
plan it right you can place rivets under the fabric by pulling up a 
fabric a bit and then regluing after rivet is set.  Initially used two 
sided carpet tape to mount the  decorative strips but found it tended to 
come unstuck from heat build up when rig was parked so added the pop 
rivets.
