Plantation shutters on all windows 20k but that was 20 yrs ago.

I used Select Blinds and measured by myself. Had my handyman install them after he painted the house. It was 16 cellular blinds for $1200. I initially had 3 day blinds come in to measure and they quoted over $4000. I was shocked.

Please don't think you need to keep up with Larlo and Larla from DCUM. We spent $6k in our family room with Hunter Douglas 10 years ago before someone here turned me on to Steve's Blinds and Wallpaper (online). Have since done 5 bedrooms, 2 offices, 3 basement windows and the dining room, and didn't spend $6k on all of that.

Could you link the one you bought?

Could you show us pictures of a 7k sf house with no curtains and just roller blinds everywhere?

We have a modern home and went with honeycomb shades from Select Blinds. They maybe cost $600. Top down bottom up also.

And upstairs we have blackout drapes from Pottery Barn Kids which all together maybe cost $600.

Hunter Douglas cordfree fabric roller blinds with the nicer "cartridge" valance. Half blackout (for bedrooms) and half light-filtering. 18 windows, only a few very large ones, including installation was about $6k. Ordered through Home Depot on one of their many sales. Dealing with the Big Orange Box Store was a huge hassle but vastly cheaper than 3 Day blinds. I'm still weighing whether to hang drapes in a few of the bedrooms. We have a small newly renovated/expanded house and I wanted to see my beautiful $50k new windows, not the blinds or shades!

Let's say you have a brand new 5000 sqft house with lots of big windows, what price range is reasonable to cover up all the windows with some roller shades, some honeycomb shades, some shutters, and some draperies? I am just looking for a price range from low end to high end.

TIA!!

We did pretty much exactly this and spent about $24K. Some rollers, lots of shutters and some smart shades. 5000 sq foot house.

We did cordless, bottom up/top down honeycomb shades for all of the window - these were blackout shades in all 4 bedrooms. We didn't do automated blinds (now I wish that we had), and no additional drapes. The glass doors had different treatments and were about $1500 of the total cost.

I think that we went with 3 day blinds.

Same but 15 windows we went to Home Depot and they cut them to size. Under 1500k for 15 windows. Contractor installed for $300

We did white plantation shutters and I absolutely adore them. It was $750 per window and they did an amazing job.

I just did HD top-down, bottom-up Roman shades (not motorized) in several of my bedrooms. I’d say average of $1000/window, though we had some they were larger/standard size (more $$) and some that are much smaller. This did not include curtains, just the blinds.

we got shutters on a 3500 sq foot house and it was $10k . we got 2 roman shades and it was almost $3k! but it's our forever house.

We did this with Smith+Noble, measured and installed ourselves, but they were still about $1,000 per window for the fanciest shades. We have honeycombs that are blackout and sheer -- you can run them down and they are sheer, run then up and they are blackout, or pull them all the way up and have open window glass.

They do have nice things though--we have a custom roller blind in the bathroom, seagrass weave with a wide fabric band that matches the color scheme. And wood blinds with wood valances for the basement casement windows. Those were all probably in the $200-400 range.
