Dimming the roof window with canvas image itself

Roof window blinds cost a lot of money. For not too large skylights, I solved the problem with two rails from the hardware store, 4 screws and a self-painted canvas picture.

Screw in the screws at the top and bottom of the picture frame and push them into the previously installed rails from the side. To make it really dark, I have painted the picture on the back black.

The rails are double (+10 cm) as long as the width of the window and so the picture is pushed aside during the day and makes the room even better.

It is synonymous with cut in the hardware store 3-4 mm plates, then it goes without screws. Wallpaper on it and the design is done. With a double rail you can work with 2 pictures / plates.
