Have you heard of blinds?

[–] duhbasser@lemm.ee 0 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Yes I have heard of blinds. This is a rental and they installed one of those pulley system blinds (white shades) so I’d either have to ask them to swap them for darker ones (they won’t do that) or install my own blinds and pay for it out of pocket. Any more suggestions?

For a rental? Heavy curtains but those make the room dark.
