Consider adding a sheer fabric solar shade to your new roller shades

While more opaque forms of window coverings are great at providing privacy and blocking outside light, solar shades made of light, sheer fabric are a great option for those times when you want to enjoy the view from your window without sacrificing the many other protections that window coverings provide. Solar shades reduce the glare of sunlight, while still allowing it to light up your rooms. They also protect you and your home from the harms of UV rays, which can otherwise create serious health problems and damage to your furniture over years of unfiltered exposure. By adding a solar shade to complement a more opaque roller shade, you get maximum flexibility when it comes to regulating the outside light coming into your home. Perfect for sunny days, adding a see-through solar shade is a great investment that will see lots of use.
