Price and quality... I found it at SelectBlinds. I always search the web for the best price (considering quality) and I've ordered blinds from other websites. I find myself returning to SelectBlinds (after my first initial purchase with them) due to the pricing and quality of their products. I'm very pleased with my purchases. A very delightful shopping experience. User friendly web purchasing is a PLUS!

Ordering and picking out the blinds was very easy. Only glitch was that we never received notification of shipment and had to call to find out that they had already been shipped and were due in the next day. Would have been nice to get a shipment notification from sender.

Measuring Instructions For Mini Blinds
Mini Blinds - Outside Mount
Width:
Measure the exact width (left to right) of the wooden or metal window frame or how wide you would like the blind to be.
Make sure to measure wide enough as to cover the entire window and provide maximum light gap coverage. Example: If the window opening is 36", it might be helpful to order 40". This will provide 2" coverage on each side of the window.
There is no rule on the width of blinds other than to make sure that it is wide enough to cover the opening.
Keep in mind that the valance will be about 2" wider than width ordered.
Write down that size making sure that it is the first number of the measurement. This is the width you will order.
Height:
Measure the height you would like the blind to be by measuring top to bottom.
We recommend adding about 3 or 4 inches to this number to insure maximum light gap coverage and to cover the window completely.
Please be sure to know that the height measurement will always include the headrail. Example: if the height ordered is 50" this will be the height including the headrail (from the very top of the headrail to the bottom rail).
You will want to mount the headrail above the window frame. Please make a note that some windows have trim that might interfere with mounting so it's important to measure above the trim if this is the case.
Headrail is 2.25" in height.
*width and length measurements may vary +/- 1/8"
