change

Changed our curtains since it has been so blazing

These curtains were from when we were living in Osaka because Satoshi had complained that even with the curtains we had back then, it was too bright.

Well, we got these the other day and boy does it shut out light!

The left side is the new curtain, the right is the old

They are too long because we measured wrong, not sure if I will cut and sew them...too lazy! (though it does irk me that they are too long, so I’ll probably hem them)

I don't know if it will make things cooler but at least the sun won't feel like it is laser beaming into the apartment

UPDATE: I hemmed up the curtains (by hand!) feel so much better about them now...ha!

Like blackout curtains? I would think they also help block the heat too. What a difference between the 2. I hung light filtering curtains from Walmart as a temporary fix while I decided what kind of window dressing I want. The style I wanted was only in a longer length than I needed but oh well. Your old ones look nice. I love blue.
