Cindy O’Reilly from Smith & Noble is on site to install the natural bamboo, sliding-panel shades. Smith & Noble’s catalog and Web site give directions for measuring, ordering, and installing their window fixtures. First the brackets and head rails are screwed in place. The head rails have tracks that carry the panels one behind the other to open fully to one panel width exposed. O’Reilly tells Bob how Smith & Noble is currently debuting a measuring tool online that will ultimately be available to customers everywhere. O’Reilly also shows Bob the bamboo roman shades that are being installed over the windows. These shades are woven on a loom with reeds that are individually hand fed.
