Saving energy

For ages I've wanted to put a Blind up on this window. This is our north facing window and it gets really hot in our room 
Terry pre drilling the holes
Here it is on the outside. Hubby is deciding where to drill for the lower clips 
And this is how it looks from inside. I still will draw the blinds but it helps cut out the heat and will protect my curtains. 
It was the longest one I could get. But it's better than nothing and there is plenty of room for my plants lol 
What do you think? It's got to help keep the place cooler. And with temps expected to soar in the next few days. I think anything that helps is worth a try 
See ya xx

    1. Yup we are the opposite. The north is our hottest as the sun. Goes east north and west here. And today it's really really hot

  2. Great idea! It should help with the heat, I would think. Definitely worth a try. Let us know if it helps.
