Are you ready… for all the fun and celebrations we have in the United States on the 4th of July? Parades, concerts in the parks, backyard barbecues with friends and families are all ways we celebrate our countries’ founding and the freedoms we share.
In Colorado Springs, Boston and many other cities across the country, we have symphony concerts combined with fireworks shows. There are many wonderful, patriotic songs, such as: Star Spangled Banner, America the Beautiful, Battle Hymn of the Republic and my favorite, the 1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky played with cannons firing at the end at our downtown Memorial Park 4th of July Celebration in Colorado Springs. Long time traditions bring back our warm feelings of independence, freedom and its message.
As we are enjoying our guests and families in our homes for the barbecues and parties, we always want our homes to look their best. Many of you readers have Silhouette® window shadings by Hunter Douglas in your homes and may have noticed tiny gnats, debris or other bugs in your shadings. Why they get stuck in there often seems a mystery to us. The magic of light in the shadings is the attraction for them and those of us who own Silhouettes®, Nantuckets™, Luminettes®, Vignettes®, Pirouettes®, Soleras®, Shangri-Las, or Illusions shadings. Light plays such an important place in our lives, it is attractive in many ways.
In a effort to keep our shadings free of bugs, preserving our views and allowing insulation from heat and cooling simultaneously, we have invented and manufacture our CamilyWand™ Sticky Bug Removal Tool™ to address that issue. It is an extension pole with a washable sticky tip which easily grabs the bugs or offending debris. We have determined why the bugs are so attracted to our beautiful shadings, and offer an easy solution for a quick clean up before your holiday parties start.
We know you’ll be pleased with your unobstructed view through your shadings as you entertain your friends and family. We wish you a very happy, safe holiday and join you in letting freedom ring as we patriotically celebrate the 4th of July!
