Oriental, NC

 Have I told you lately that I love my window louvers?  The view out of the salon is just wonderful after being closed in with the dark window coverings for so many years.....but in the mornings/evenings when the sun angle is low, the harsh sun is annoying and hot.  (Yes, the windows are tinted but it's not sufficiently dark to help with this issue).


I set about making inserts to have on hand to block the sun when the occasion occurs.....luckily, there was some perfect foam leftover from the solar panel packaging that I pieced together to make a pattern. 

 

Pattern cut and fitted snugly inside the window frame.  Not perfect but doesn't have to be....sorry for the mess, you know how it gets when you're in the middle of several projects.....

 


I had the old sunshades stored in the trailer - so I got those out and reused the solar blanket bubble wrap material.

All done with the fitting.  There is some sagging because the windows are at a pretty steep angle.  I've ordered some heavy duty suction cups from Amazon that will be inserted to keep the material snug to the window.....

I won't use them often but will be nice to have in certain situations.
