cafe scientifique went a bit over my head really. oh well. after this, [livejournal.com profile] riak, [livejournal.com profile] lost_species, [livejournal.com profile] grim_tim and [livejournal.com profile] drjane came round to admire my blinds. they are cream and i indeed took photos of them (and of the flat with all the furniture in) but don't have a USB cable with me.

they do not keep the light out sufficiently, so will have to beg to be allowed to install curtains in the bedroom as well. with the blinds closed, there is still enough light in the room to read by! i did manage to sleep there overnight, but brokenly, waking up at 2am and then 5am and never really getting back to sleep again.

You can buy black-out curtains from Dunhelm pretty cheaply, and they have them in all different sizes. They're white and plasticy so to make them look a bit more homely you could sew some prettier fabric on top of them.

Or go for student-chic and pin black bags over the windows?

Or carrier bags from clothes shops for *designer* student chic :)

If you can afford clothes as a student, you're such a poser!! *grin*
