Lovely little summer houseGadget why don't you want them fastened (no drill)?How do you imagine they will be fastened? I can't see that.I don't think it would work in there but I put up thermal sheets/blinds/curtains using expanding curtain rods.
I can rise and shine - just not at the same time!

Looking at the site they don't have direct contact being so huge.There is Quick Customer Service which may be an online chat. You could as how you can get the window measurements.You can get venetian blinds that you cut to size.Venetian are probably the best for staying close to the window to keep the sun out.Otherwise home made or local made Roman Blinds would stay closest and could be lined with thermal lining. I've done that for my north facing windows.

So what’s the best way to decorate it? I seen somebody in reviews paint outside and add vinyl floor. Can you get laminate floor? Is painting inside a good thing? Is there any sort of roof finish or insulation worth it or a waste of money? Also is it worth building decking as a base or a flat base?0

I can't help with the blinds, but what do you plan to use the summerhouse for? I ask because it really is tiny, and the measurements are the external size. Once you take the framework into account the internal size is about 3 1/2 by 5 1/2 feet. You'd be pushed to get anything more than a couple of chairs in there.
