Whether you've just moved to a new house or blinds just aren't in your current budget...try Redi Shades!  They are an extremely affordable way to get privacy and/or darken your bedroom.  The room darkening shades are the most expensive and cost around $10 per shade.  You cut it to size and tape it to your window, using clips if you need to raise the shade.  (It looks better than it sounds- trust me- it looks like an accordian blind.) This is a perfect solution for a temporary shade!
