Double-sided tape does not stick. All of them fell off within 12 hours. Already cut them to size or else would be sending them back.

These are a quick and great alternative when you need to cover a window. I have actual shades that look the same, and you really can’t tell the difference.

I recently purchased a new home and it did not have window coverings. I ordered blinds from another company and the manufacture and install was going to take a 6 weeks. I saw this product on Amazon and figured it was a good solution. The product arrived in two days without special shipping. These products are easy to install with a step stool or small ladder if you are height challenged like myself. They are easy to trim to fit and are fairly durable.Living in the Southwest the average indoor temp in my home is about 90. Not using AC, after installing these paper blinds, the temp was reduced. I highly recommend this product. The only concern was I needed 7 and they come in packages of 6. I used butcher paper for the 7th window and it's fine. However, the paper does not compare to the efficiency of this product.I do not work for the manufacturer or any related industry. This is my honest opinion and YMMV. I believe you will be satisfied with this product as a temporary solution to uncovered windows. I will post an update if there are any negative issues with this product. So far, none.

I bought this as a temporary solution that turned into a permanent one. I moved into a new place and my bedroom has 5 windows that didn't have any shades or curtains installed. I didn't want to spend hundreds on rods/curtains/blinds for all 5 windows at least not right after I moved in. So I did some research and got these Redi shades. Based on some previous reviews I was expecting them to last a few weeks before the adhesion wears off but I was ok with that because they are not expensive and I needed something to block the light asap. It's been 8 months now and the shades are still on. It was a little annoying in the beginning having to adjust them up and down with the clips every time I wanted some light in my room but I'm so used to it by now it's not a problem anymore. It's not pitch black during the day of course as they are paper but they're doing a pretty good job for me. The photo is taken at 7:30am. I will add another one tonight when it's dark out.

These were exactly what I was looking for. I love the grey color. It blocks out the perfect amount of sunlight, and at night they provide privacy ( they are not sheer or see through). Other paper blinds I have bought, keep falling down...but the adhesive tape on these is very strong! I am 100% happy with these blinds. Love that they were very easy to cut to fit all of my windows.

Es práctico y fácil de instalar. Se puede recortar a la medida deseada. Aunque no bloquea al 100% la luz que entra en las ventanas, para mí es suficientemente bueno para poder tener la oscuridad suficiente para dormir bien.

I already have vertical blinds but because they don’t hang flush to the window some light and heat still get in. So this is a great inexpensive addition that I added behind current blind to block extra heat and light. Now my air conditioner isn’t running as often and I am sleeping better since it’s blocking more light as well.Only issue is they are not as long as my window due to the pleats. Minor for me but next time I will purchase ones a bit longer to accommodate.

These are amazing! We have a sunroom that doubles as a guest room. We don’t want permanent window blinds in the room. We also have a lot of windows (9 windows and a sliding glass door) so window treatments would get very pricey! One of my neighbors had these paper blinds and I was intrigued. I bought some and I am convinced these are the best thing ever! I measured the windows, then marked and cut through the blinds when folded up, with a razor knife. The adhesive is very sticky but I did have to take one off and put it back as it was crooked, and was able to do so. They look very nice...from a distance you can’t tell they are paper.They do come with clips, but we bought some so we could match the color of the blinds, as the ones that came with it were white, and we bought the gray shades. I wanted something to help block out light when it was used as a guest room but not black.My neighbor uses these full time and replaces them when they get dusty (every six months or so since she has white ones). We only need them when we have company, so it is a great deal for us!You can see in the picture that one is down and the one next to it is clipped up.

These paper shades are great.I am actually installing behind my plantation blinds to protect them in summer from the sun which over times eats away & dry rots the strings.I pull them down in summer also to block the heat & strong rays of the sun from damaging & discoloring mg furniture.Room darkened really work great & I love how you can use them on different size windows.Great for privacy as well as you cannot see silhoettes behind them at night.You can with standard light filtering shades which I have now bit replacing with room darkening ones.They are great, look really great on the windows from inside & outside.Very easy to cut if need be, & install by yourself.Price was great for 6 to a pack.Amazon has the best price for these shades.I highly recommend these paper shades. For the money the ate great

These are pretty tough to cut in one fell swoop. I used Costco scissors and I still had to muscle and maneuver it. Because of this, the edges look a little frayed, but it’s not noticeable since the shades sit inside the frame.I added some additional adhesive because of the difficulties many other reviewers said they had. I highly recommend doing this.In the end, the shades look really nice. Because the clips look cheap when they’re attached to keep the shades up, I recommend buying these for windows you plan on keeping shut most/all of the time.I would give this 4.5 stars if I could.

I got these blinds hoping they would help block light out of a south facing office, they were an interim solution until the new shutters arrived. Well they did reduce the light and they were fairly simple to cut and fit. They are made of heavy gauge paper and are neat....however they stay neat if you do not have to raise and lower them...thats the tricky part. I needed to do this so they didn't stay neat and they would also not 'fold' up well. And after a few days the double sided came off one of the two I fixed, then when it came down ruined the blind. Luckily they come in a pack of 6, so put another one up.Overall not bad, they do not block light out but more reduce the light by a decent amount. I had grey ones. I know that I could have used more double sided tape to fix them up more permanently but no need for me as they were just interim solutions.In future for more darkening of my office I might consider just buying black-out material from a fabric shop an use command hooks to hold them up.
