Insulated Window Cover (low cost)

In this Instructable I will show you how I made a very low cost window covering.

If you have read my other Instructables the story is a cold bedroom and trying to get it warm on a budget, so I wont bore you with the details.

Step 1 Step 1 What you will need

First off look through your belonging and see if you have a spare comforter, bed spread, blanket etc. I find FULL SIZE is usually good depending on height and width of the window.

I personally went shopping at the thrift store. I found two items. one a used sleeping bag, that ended up in the second bedroom, and two a used comforter that was light weight but very warm.

You will need clips to attach these to either a curtain rod or vertical blind tracks.

The green clips shown were purchased at Home Depot for 38 Cents each + Tax. I bought 12 to make things easy and secure.

I had $7 in the comforter and less than $6 in clips. Im sure that in the two winters since doing this I have saved my $13 back over and over in this one room, not to mention the warmth and comfort.
