I love my clerestory windows but at some times of day the sun shines on the TV so it is unwatchable. Can't move the TV - it's the only "solid" wall. I know they make "remote" controlled blinds but I really can't afford that. I'm looking for an inexpensive DIY way to easily cover/uncover windows that will not interview with opening/closing the windows. They slide to the left to open (use a window pole).

Tried to add photo but guess I can't do it from my iPhone camera.

Thanks,
Rosebud
