These are a perfect temporary option if you need temporary shade. After replacing the windows in the home and waiting for the new blinds to come these lasted several weeks without any issue. Instant privacy regained in seconds in a room full of new windows.

I purchased the six pack of redi shades for under twenty dollars and installed one . The secret is to use double sided tape which I also purchased at home depot . It looks fantastic and cheaper than replacing fifty dollar mini blinds that snap due to dry rot from the sun . Highly recommend !

Easy n works well.

I just moved into a new home and currently can not get shades due to current events. The lady at home depot showed me these and boy am I glad she did. They look so much better then I ever would of expected. Easy to cut and stick. I did also add some clear thumb tacks to make sure it really stays for awhile. I do wish they had multiple sizes. I have a few huge windows so needed 2 pieces per window. Also be careful I have paper cuts on every single finger. Lol oh well, at least the shades look good.

Great product, easy to install and looks great in all my windows.

Works great for a temporary window treatment. Cheap but looks nice! Actually taped mine up with painters tape because of some of the comments saying that the adhesive pulled up paint

these are great for temporary privacy, put them up on 18 windows in my old house while it's vacant and up for sale. do wear gloves or be prepared for paper cuts when you're sticking them on the window frame running your hands under the bottom fold.

This buys u time until u get permanent window treatments. The white let a good deal of light through but give u complete privacy at night. You cannot see through, only shadows. They cut easily and were also easy to put up.

Very good temporary blind

I love this product, they provide privacy and light. They are a temporary quick fix, easy to trim to fit and apply. The tape is very durable and stays put, but didn't leave a sticky residue on the surface. I do recommend that any powder or dust on the surface be wiped off before applying to assist in a good bond.

Awesome Blinds Alternative. I use these on all windows in homes that are under renovation. These paper blinds are easy to cut to size and are excellent for providing privacy when you aren't ready to install permanent blinds. Believe it or not I actually once used these blinds in a home as permanent window covering for 6 years. One would occasionally fall down and I would have to put it back up there , but that was rare. One some occasions I've even flipped the blinds to the outside so that I could more easily clean the window panes on the interior. These blinds last forever and provide an excellent value at a literally unbeatable price. These blinds exceed my expectations and I have been buying them for years and I will keep buying them.

I live in a high rise. I don't have any direct neighbors so I never felt the need for shades. Recently, the building initiated external brick work. At least once a week, there are contractors outside my window. I didn't want to invest in expensive shades. The building office recommended the paper shades. They come in 2 widths and 2 colors (black and white). The wider shades were too wide for my window and I didn't feel like cutting the shades to size. I bought the shades that are a little smaller than the window but once I centered the shades I still have plenty of privacy. The shades fold up and down like an accordion. There are plastic clips which secure the length that works for you. The building office said her set has lasted 10 years. That's a great return on a $20 purchase.

Great product easy to install bright white coloras described

These are exactly what they say they are -- paper shades. They are fine for temporary use until I can redo the room, but I have a feeling that if I leave them up long term, the top section will pull out straight because of the weight of the lower part when it is clipped up. I would have preferred the off white, but they did not have these in the large package. The white shades are very bright white. I will add that I used white topped thumbtacks to hold them up as I knew with the humidity the sticky tape would not hold.

Nice I love it

These shades are perfect for a temporary solution before permanent window treatments are done. The paper is just strong enough to hold shape and they are easy to cut to fit your window. They can be easily peeled off and reattached if needed. Well worth the money!JG

We needed temporary defused lighting. These worked without issues. The sticky strip held up great; despite the previous comments I read on the issues with it not holding. They were thick and a little difficult to cut, but it was easy. They did exactly what I wanted and easy on the wallet.

Recently moved into a place to realize that several of the rooms didn't have window treatments. I wasn't ready to make a decision on what kind I wanted to order and thought I'd have to hang up sheets to have privacy. A friend mentioned using temporary blinds and this six pack was enough to let me move in. They were easy to put up and have stayed put for several weeks now (still waiting on the treatments I ordered). Easy to put up during the day with the included clips. Filters some light through but it's not too bright - I was easily able to sleep in my bedroom with these. Highly recommend.

Temporary is the operative word here. They do not wear well—thin paper that kinks and crumples and gives paper cuts. After about a week, if you actually lower and raise them on a daily basis, you will grow to hate them because you have to manually gather and clip each side unless you have someone to help. When you do remove them to replace with permanent coverings, the strong adhesive will take multiple layers of paint off.

If you buy these, buy some masking tape to hold them up. All of ours fell down. And when they fall, they stick to themselves resulting in tearing/holes etc. The adhesive the manufacturer is using is cheap. Would not recommend these. Waste of our time an money since most are now torn.

These shades are great for temporary shades. I've used them a few times when moving until my permanent blinds or shades were installed. The adhesive that holds them up at the top of the window frame sometimes lets go and the shade falls, but can be reinstalled with a little help from some painter's tape or masking tape.

So easy to cut the width I wanted. I used a scissors. I dusted the 17x17 window sills and then hung the whole 72" length and then cut it to the length I wanted. Took me 15 mins. For two windows. Looks very professional.

Great Temporary Window Shades. I moved into a new constructed home during a busy work travel period so I don't have time to select and install permanent window treatments. These light filtering shades are a perfect solution to inexpensively provide privacy and actually look pretty good. I used them on a large arch window only hanging them over the two lower standard window sections leaving the arch section open. I was able to attach the adhesive strips along the top vinyl (mini sill) and they adhere very well. Just to be safe I reinforced it in a ew spots with a few small strips I had some specialty white paper tape I had. The pleating does come out a little over time but you can help avoid this by not letting extra at the bottom hang and stretch the bind. Clip the exess and let it rest on the sill. (FYI- The blackout version of these are slightly more difficult to deal with).

Because my husband and I recently painted our bedroom, our existing window coverings no longer worked. I bought these paper shades to hang while new curtains are on order and could NOT be happier with them. It literally took me three minutes per window to measure, cut, and hang these. The plastic clips that come with make it super easy to adjust the length of the shades. They are paper and I can't speak to their durability (because I've only had them up for four days), but they look really sharp. I've told everyone I know about how great these are, lol.

We moved into a big, old house with no window treatments last year. We couldn't afford proper blinds, so we bought a bunch of these to tide us over until we could buy real window coverings. We have the white ones in the living areas, the grey ones in our bedroom and the kids' bedroom, and the black ones in the baby's room. Installation: They are very easy to install. Clean the window frame, trim the shades to size (I used a utility knife and a ruler - it usually just took 3-4 cuts to get through the whole shade), peel and stick. I only had two fall down, of the eleven I installed, and those were the ones where I forgot to clean the surface before installing them. I cleaned it and stuck them back up, and they stayed fine. One of the re-stuck ones fell down a second time on an especially humid summer day. Privacy and light filtering: They do the job. The white ones are completely opaque, and you can't see inside when they are closed. They block more light than I thought they would, and I found myself still wanting to open them to let the sunshine in every day. The grey ones make the room dark enough for the kids to nap or go to bed before sunset, but let enough light in to tell the difference between day and night. The black ones aren't true blackout shades, but what can you expect from paper? You can see the hand in front of your face, and once your eyes adjust to the darkness, you can see across the room without any trouble. But they do a more than decent job for the price. Removal: This was one of the only drawbacks. They all ripped a big strip of paint off when we took them down, no matter how careful we were. But I didn't take away any stars for this because our house is old, and sometimes the paint comes off just because you looked at it funny. Daily use: It was a little bit annoying to have to re-fold the accordion fold every morning to open the blinds, and my kids were constantly removing (and losing) the clips (FYI: clothespins work in a pinch). If you have toddlers, they will likely be fascinated by the big, crinkly paper things as soon as they are tall enough to reach them, which will definitely reduce their longevity (toddler-induced damage was what finally did our living room ones in). The bedroom ones are less tempting, so they are all still doing fine. Bonus: Bored of the look of straight shades? Lost half your clips? Just clip the middle instead of the edges, and you have fancy circle shades!

Just moving in to a new apartment I needed a quick window covering while I moved in so I could leave curtains and blinds until all my furniture and painting is situated. These are a great value took just a few minutes to put up 4. They let enough light in but offer complete privacy.

easy to put up and looks good! my kitty caused my shades to NOT look perfect...she was locked in a room accidentally and she tore up the bottom of the shade... but it held and did not fall down

Great for a temporary use .
