one of my apartments has a curved floor to ceiling window and the sunlight is blinding between 4-8pm at the moment.
it's going to take my awhile to organize some nice blinds to be fitted but in the mean time does anyone have any creative solutions to block out the sun without installing any fittings?

possibly something I could go to b and q and cook up, like a a sunblocker on caster wheels which I could wheel around the room to block the sun as it moves, as absurd as that sounds!

it really is that unbearable !

You can get suction black-out thing for children's windows, might do the job?

Gro Anywhere

Size is 130x198cm, so depends on window really, but is fairly sizable.

blackout blind with window suckers?

Its what we had in our daughter's room during the hot summer last year, helped a bit at nap time, but it was nice and simple and folds up into a bag if you aren't using it.

Cheap ricer window tint from halfords, then peel it off and bin once blinds arrive.
