Curtain for door?

Anyone attached a curtain to your door? It was really bright this morning!!

I'm thinking about making one with magnets... or trying to find a curtain rod with magnets built in.

Mags won't work on the door. We made fabric strips, about 3 " wide and as long as the window is wide, she sewed Velcro to the strip. We then loosened the screws across the top and about half way down the window, slid the fabric between the top of the frame and door, tightened the screws. With the fabric folded over, the Velcro is facing out and now with a mating strip of Velcro on the curtain, you remove when desired. Hope this helps!

I use the reflective door window covers. Velcro on and off.

Solar Entry Door Window Cover, 24" x 16" - Direcsource Ltd 26406 - Window Covers - Camping World

Not as pretty as a curtain, but blocks both light and heat.

UH, UMMM, we use a dark beach towel to block out the sunlight. There is a "valance" or some type of decorative trim thingy over the door and I just tuck one end of the towel into that and let it hand down. I'm cheap

Ended up getting the solar shade from my dealer. It was only $13 and does a great job! Velcros in place so easy removal if I want, as well.
