PSA room darkening

momofcatan · April 2014

Since it is getting light out earlier DD has been waking up earlier even though we have a good roller shade in her room. This morning we put up some cheap paper blinds (room darkening ones) right up against the window under the roller shade. It is so much darker in there now. I'm sure it is a fluke, but DD has been napping for almost 3 hours now! Just thought I would share my easy fix.

@mcbush‌ I put a new link that should work.

@violet1183‌ I was seriously considering taping towels or tin foil up and then remembered that we used these in our old apartment. They are not the prettiest things, but they are cheap and easy. I've seen them at Home Depot and walmart also.

I went to jo Anne fabrics and got some black out shade material and I have it tacked over the blinds. I did that with ds1 and now ds2. It looks super ugly but both boys rise with sun and don't nap well unless it is dark in their room.

Home Depot sells paper shades very similar for only $5 or $6. https://m.homedepot.com/p/Redi-Shade-Paper-Black-Out-Window-Shade-Price-Varies-by-Size-3203094/202674913/

They work great.
