DEAR GAIL: I am not sure what is acceptable as far as store-bought blinds and custom blinds and where they should go. My husband bought some off-the-shelf one-half-inch miniblinds to put in our garage that faces the street and I just hate them. We have custom 41/2-inch shutters that are on the front windows of the house and it seems it just makes them look cheaper with the minis on the garage. Please help me; I know that he will take your advice. — Becka R.
