black out things to stick on windows?

[Madigan]

Hello - can anyone advise me if/where I can get black out "blinds" that you actually stick on windows? I have just got black out roller blinds for childrens' bedroom, and they are hopeless. The light at about 6.30am is waking my 1 yo who is in turn waking up my 2 yo (they are sharing a room). I think effective black out blinds would make a real difference, if anyone knows where to get them?

Many thanks

I don't know where you get them but what I did was get a spring loaded pole thing that you jam in the aperture and then I bought some black out fabric and sewed along the top and slotted the pole through. It's RIGHT next to the window and I am getting an hour and a hlaf extra sleep now

I haven't tried them yet but have exactly the same problem and am planning to get Easyblinds. www.easyblindsonline.co.uk/

Link again www.easyblindsonline.co.uk

Jo Jo Maman Bebe catalogue had some that were on a roll and stuck to the window with static (haven't tried them though)

We have the Baa Baa blind which uses suction cups and that works pretty well

I find www.easyblindsonline.co.uk the best.

thank you - going to order velcro blinds from easyblinds -

many thanks for all advice. xx

Ahh, they look like they might be a solution for me too - the DSs' room has Velux windows and blackout blinds for these cost upwards of £70 each! I had though of velcroing blackout fabric to the window but these blind things look ideal.

i just put velcro on the window frame ane blackout material. it works a treat

gltc do the static on ones too now.

Another vote for blackout material cut to size and velcro.
Makes my dcs' bedroom totally pitch black.
Made bugger all difference to ds2's early waking, unfortunately.
