Easy, Eco Bedroom Makeover

In the Shade

We replaced the dusty old mini blinds with these ivory cotton roman shades. Their thermal backing makes them a great energy saver because they block out outside elements (weather, noise, and sunlight).

GREEN TIP:
Make sure you don't just throw your old window treatments away. If possible, recycle plastic mini blinds or donate old curtains and panels to a local thrift store or charity.
