ive been on the road and sleeping in my truck for a little while now — wanted to make a post about the blackout “curtains” I made for TruckSleepMode that have been working out well so far.
1 - i made a template of the windows using newsprint.
2 - i cut a black trifold foamcore presentation board (reused my younger sister’s science fair project board hah)
3 - attached suction cups to it using beading wire.
been sturdy enough + it’s really nice that it folds up for storage during the day!
@lake Ooh, that's really nice -- thank you: I've been stuck on blackout curtains for a long-ass time, but suction cups are a great idea. 😈
@lake oh good thought on the suction cups. my partner made a bunch of reflective covers for our van windows that sort of affix with magnets, but they haven't quiiiite proven to stay in place. going to have to give that a shot.
