I will be starting on nights soon and tend to have a hard time sleeping sometimes so darkening my room is of highest priority to me.
I have been looking into Blackout shades. I would like an inside mount but would that block 100% light? Wouldn't it leak through on the sides anyway? I live in Arizona so I need something that WORKS. I know an outside mount would work but I don't want something that is going to look bad, and I want something that I can use like normal blinds on my days off (ie, I want light in the room). Because of this, aluminum foil is just not an option. Plus, hubby would like some light after he gets home in the day I am sure.
I need to know what works BEST but is not totally ghetto. I don't really want to nail dark curtains to my wall or whatever. I am not sure I can sleep with a sleep mask either since I spend most of my sleep on my stomach with my face pressed into the pillow...Any tips would be great!
