Blinds and Shades Options for Child and Pet Safety

ByAndy Long Window Treatments

October is Child Safety Month, so it’s important to know that, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, window coverings with dangling cords are among the top five hidden hazards for children in American homes. Many people don’t think of window treatments as being hazards, so it’s a good time to examine recent trends in window treatments that have enhanced child safety features.
