Have fun.

I think the same would happen to window shades with the light shining through from outside. I'd try covering them with light-weight fabric or wallpaper.

The show host used spray adhesive in a can on the shades and then attached fabric to the shade that was a better match with the room's new color scheme.

Just use spray adhesive on the window shade to adhere the fabric. Posted on 10/31/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Painting Window Shades By Linda (Guest Post) I see no reason not to paint the shades. You may need to remove the trim and replace it with new in a color that works.

She took wallpaper and put it on the shades. We weren't allowed to decorate with paint so she did this instead...easily removed when she moved. Good Luck. Posted on 10/31/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse
