If you are an incoming college freshman there may be one aspect of dorms that you didn't realize. What you may not know is that the vast majority of dorm rooms lack blinds or drapes that actually block the sun. Sure your room will come equipped with cheap blinds, but we can guarantee the sun will be shinning in bright & early. To avoid unwanted sunlight in your campus room you'll want to add our Blackout Curtain. Blocking 99.99% of all sunlight, this sun prevention curtain drapes in front of your blinds to allow for daytime naps and sleeping in on the weekends without sunlight interruption.
In college your sleep is important. Our Blackout Curtain is an essential dorm supplies item for any college student. Don't loose sleep just because your dorm has not so great blinds!
How to hang?
Most dorm windows are set in. This means that you'll be able to use a tension rod from wall to wall. This rod can hold our Blackout Curtain and provide that dark layer of drapes beyond the university provided blinds. You'll want to use a tension rod because any holes in the dorm wall from trying to hang curtain rod brackets will certainly result in an end of year fine. You'll be surprised at how high these fines can get! If for some rare reason your dorm does not have set in windows and a tension rod is not possible you can still use our Blackout Curtain. It doesn't look as nice, but you simply tuck the top portion over the university provided blinds and the curtain will hang over the blinds. This may be something you only keep up when you go to take a nap or know you'll be sleeping in. The decor aspect won't look as nice as the rooms that can use a tension rod, but when it comes to good sleep dorm decor takes a back seat.
