  • To avoid anyone peeping in on you, you'll want to close your blinds facing up!
    You've been closing your blinds all wrong.
    BELIEVE it or not, there is a right way to close your blinds and you may not be doing it correctly.
    Closing your blinds facing downward can actually allow people to see into your home.
    To avoid anyone peeping in on you, you'll want to close your blinds facing up!
    The right way means no one will be able to peek inside so say goodbye to peeping toms.
    If someone tries to look through the blinds, all they'll be able to see is the ceiling.
    There's no right or wrong way to turn your blinds. But one way may be more suitable than the other, depending on your needs. The choice really boils down to your lighting and privacy requirements at different times of the day and, of course, personal preference.

    To achieve the best privacy and lighting vs darkness , in the daytime the slats of the blinds must be upward to maintain the best lighting and privacy BUT at night the slats must be downward to maintain maximum darkness and best privacy according to professional blinds designers

    You have to have super low windows for this to be true. Otherwise you should do the opposite and tilt them so somebody would have to look down. I'm fine if they see my knees and feet.
