Helping families go cordless for safer, smarter homes — offering deep discounts to further the effort during National Child Safety and Protection Month and beyond

As Creative Blinds celebrates 50 years of elevating homes with beautiful, custom window treatments, the family-owned company is marking the milestone with a renewed purpose: making every home safer for children. In recognition of National Child Safety and Protection Month, Creative Blinds is leading a “Go Cordless” initiative to raise awareness of the hidden dangers of corded window coverings and help families upgrade to safer, cordless designs—without sacrificing style or savings.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission reports that each year, an average of nine children under age five lose their lives to strangulation from cords on blinds, shades, or draperies. Over a 13-year period, more than 200 children were injured or killed in such incidents—often in seconds, and often while an adult was only a few steps away.

“Our mission is simple,” said Erika Palmer Mandel, second-generation owner of Creative Blinds. “Design and safety should never be a trade-off. We’re encouraging homeowners, builders, and designers to replace outdated corded blinds with cordless or motorized solutions that protect children without compromising style. Through the end of the year, we’re offering a trade-in incentive—an added 20% off already-discounted pricing on new shades when you trade in window coverings that pose a safety risk. We also offer a free safety review of your current window treatments.”

For five decades, Creative Blinds has been transforming homes with stylish, smart window-treatment solutions that prioritize both beauty and safety. From cordless to fully motorized systems, the company’s products eliminate the risk of dangerous cords while enhancing convenience and design.

Cordless window coverings are now widely available and affordable. For families unable to replace old products immediately, steps such as shortening cords, keeping them out of reach, properly anchoring loops, and moving cribs and furniture away from windows can dramatically reduce risk.

“Fifty years later, our founding principles still guide everything we do—personal service, quality craftsmanship, and now, innovation that makes homes safer,” said Steve Palmer, president and founder of Creative Blinds. “We’re proud to see families embrace cordless design and look forward to helping the next generation build homes that are both beautiful and safe.”
