Hi! I'm not really good with introductions, so this will be short and to the point.
I just joined a bunch of craft/decorating/homemaking communities (have been lurking for a while on yet more), and this is being crossposted to all of them. I don't have much spare time for crafts, but I have a long list of things I'd like to start soon, and figured these communities were a great place to look for inspiration.
Now to my first question: I am in the process of rearranging my living room. I will be moving the entertainment center to a wall with two off center windows. I have decided to hang fabric, floor to ceiling along that wall, and cover the windows. I've also opted to go with something dark and opaque. The sun shines nonstop in the living room from the moment it rises till the moment it sets, and I'd like as much of it blocked as possible. Do any of you have any suggestions as to what type of fabric would work for this? I wanted to use 90% shadecloth, but so far have had no luck finding it in any of the home improvment stores around here.
