Light Weight Curtains

Options
Hi, I'm going to errect a PVC curtain rail behind my existing vertical blinds.

The only rail (cheapish) rail I can find which will reverse bend is the streamline + (plus). It will have to be ceiling fixed and because of the width of the window I will probably have to buy four curtains: 90w x 72drop and a smaller pair 54w x 72 drop putting extra strain on the rail.

I'd like to buy some light weight curtains which will stop the reflection of the sun onto my TV screen even when my verticals are closed. Do such curtains exist? If they do, can someone point me in the general direction.

Thanx

    Lightweight (lined) voile curtains should do the trick. If you have a TJ Hughes near you, that's the place to go. Maybe Wilkinsons or Dunelm Mill also.
    Normal people worry me.
  • Thanx Hobsons Choice, how strange for you to recommend TJ Hughes at the same time as they are calling in the Administrators.

    I just wonder if the voil curtains will still allow too much light to pass through, but I'll take your advice and go and have a look.

    Thanx
