I just did a quick rough costing out of blinds for the new house. Close to $2K! Good gravey.

My apartment has two huge closets (well, huge by my standards -- much smaller than the ones in that picture), and very little floor space for a dresser. Every dorm room I had in college was the same -- lots of closet space, not much folding storage space. I got in the habit of hanging up pretty much everything except underwear and pajamas, and once I'm hanging things up anyway, it's not any more difficult to make it organized.
Maybe you should go for the vinyl blinds instead of the SOLID PLATINUM ones.
msbelle, a friend of mine in Columbus lamented about the cost of blinds for their new house. I think they ended up spending close to $5K--it was a big house but they weren't fancy blinds or anything. I replaced two of ours recently and it was over $150. I'm dreading the replacements needed for the kids' rooms.

I think mine averaged out to $100/window.
