Hrmm I have shades. They are solid material, like some form of plastic almost. I wouldn’t mind verticals though, so long as they were fitted such that they were within the window frame, and not outside of it (if that makes sense). One thing I don’t like about mine is the amount of light that comes in through the sides, I always get blasted by a ray of light during the winters ---

What are the window sizes and what is your budget? One of the divisions of the company I work for is Levolor Window Fashions so I spent some time working with the product. So, no, I am not gay. ---

Here’s two price conscious options. 1. Roller Shade Room Darkening $10-20 ish -inexpensive -Can be cut at Lowe’s to proper width [http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=142299-978-YSU37660-RD611&lpage=none](http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=142299-978-YSU37660-RD611&lpage=none) 1. Levolor Cellular Room Darkening shade - $40 ish -At Lowe’s they can cut them to your width and then you can cut the length at home if you choose. - Look nicer than roller shades -The best insulating blinds on the market I use these in my house and the bedroom is almost pitch black any time of day. [http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=167805-978-NCC31720-62287&lpage=none](http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=167805-978-NCC31720-62287&lpage=none) Price wise it is tough to beat Lowe’s for IN Stock Levolor product. I’m not trying to push you towards Levolor, I just know their product is some of the best out there. ---

you can get cheap blinds at Home Depot or Lowes man Are you looking to blackout the room or just don’t want it blaring at you? I find the standard mini-blind to be more than enough and I lived in a room that was in direct sunlight all morning. ---

No problem. No matter what you buy, make sure you take proper measurements first. [http://www.levolor.com/how-to-measure/](http://www.levolor.com/how-to-measure/) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/gay-day-crew-so-chinos-advice-please-what-style-window-covering/52393.md?page=2)
