T - I just bought standard blackout curtains from spotlight, plus some patterned fabric & fabric glue - stuck borders around the curtains and several cut-outs onto the main part of the curtain.
Another one here with the plain blackout curtains from Spotlight. To make it look better we got a 2nd pair of curtains with the pattern and hung them just in front of the blackout ones. DH tinkered with the curtain rod to hold 2 rods next to each other. The plain and the pattern coordinate quite well together.
I am now wondering if I should get him blackout blinds and regular curtains, as his new room (my old study) is at the front of the house. Just to give him a wee bit more privacy. What do you guys think, good idea?
We've got a couple of blockout blinds we were planning on selling on ebay - they're pretty wide though. How wide/high is the window? They're a bone kind of colour.
I *think* they're about 180w by 120h but I'd need to check.
The window is about 95cm wide by 215cm tall, so they wouldn't fit Thanks for thinking of me though. I will have a look at Spotlight/Bunnings on Saturday and see if the prices and range help me decide what to do.
Thanks everyone for your advice, a friend gave me some curtains today that are a good colour, really good quality, and exactly the right size. DS1 is so pleased he gets to move into him own bedroom this weekend
