The particular design we have is the riviera stripe which it looks like they are getting rid of; but the blackout feature is great. Our nursery is painted navy blue so it's pretty dark to begin with, but that + regular wood blinds + blackout shades makes it very cave-like, perfect for baby sleeping! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-blackout-curtains-do-you-have-in-los-room#post-2577737 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 12:47:16 +0000 Foodnerd81 2577737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Got curtains and black out liners from ikea and they aren't very good. They let a lot of light through still. Ended up buying the paper redi shades from Home Depot and they make it perfectly dark. But don't look very nice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-blackout-curtains-do-you-have-in-los-room#post-2577732 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 12:45:07 +0000 Orchid 2577732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm thinking of getting these:<br /> <a href="https://www.jossandmain.com/Robichaux-Single-Curtain-Panel-OAWY2671-OAWY2671.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.jossandmain.com/Robichaux-Single-Curtain-Panel-OAWY2671-OAWY2671.html</a></p> <p>We need 8 for our room since our newborn is with us for now. $8 can't be beat and it still has good reviews! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-blackout-curtains-do-you-have-in-los-room#post-2577729 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 12:42:20 +0000 Canoli 2577729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the Threshold light blocking curtain liners from Target. I put them under the curtains using a tension rod. Not the cleanest look but our curtains are white so you can't really tell. They work well for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-blackout-curtains-do-you-have-in-los-room#post-2577723 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 12:37:22 +0000 NorthStar 2577723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took curtains I purchased from Target, bought blackout fabric and used no sew binding (whatever it is called).

We did it for our nursery (asked my aunt to sew them) and compared to the blackout curtains I purchased from Amazon, there is a difference. It worked for us because my nursery theme is unique. I picked out a fabric that matches the two crib sheets I have. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-blackout-curtains-do-you-have-in-los-room#post-2577675 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 11:39:13 +0000 winter_wonder 2577675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Recommend your blackout curtains please! </p>
