Please delete your multiple posts....keep just one in order to avoid confusion.

Thank you yes I don't want multiple posts. It timed out each time I posted and gave me an error msg. Now I can only see 1 post. Ugh! Sorry I will try to delete the others.

There are light-filtering roll-down shades available at most window shade companies. They let in as much light as you want, yet offer enough privacy. You can get them in several. colors to go with your paint, your window trim or your drapery panels.
