How do I dress 12 windows in my sunroom?
+8
the walls can't hold curtainrods, we've tried shades but no luck. Thank you for any ideas.

Hi Jeannie- If they have metal frames, use magnets and put up sheer curtains. They make magnetic curtain rods too. Lowes, Home Depot has them. You can make extensions from dowels if you need length and the curtains will cover it. Also perhaps narrow shelving full of plants, or suction cups with hooks or even Velcro attached netting or sheers. A friend of mine put those window peel and stick contact type coverings on hers - partway up--stained glass look that removes easily. She got it at Home Depot.
I have thought about using shutters
Can the ceiling hold the curtain rods? The curtains can be hung use clip rings or shower curtain hooks.
How about window film?
If the ceiling can hold a rod, you can buy ceiling tracks (similar to the curtains you see around a hospital bed) . They have hooks or rings which are attached to the track which you can hang curtains from.
I agree, check and see if the rods can be hung from the ceiling safely, there may be more structure in the ceiling.
How about decorative window film, it comes in many patterns including privacy, stained glass, natural prints, heat reflective films. Amazon has a zillion to pick from.....

Wow, thank you for all the wonderful sugestions! I have tried everything mentioned except a ceiling rod, that will not work either. i have been online looking for a solution all evening and did find magnetic tie up shades, a gentleman suggested I glue magnets to the wall. The shades are room darkening and help with the tempature. problem is they were to small.
