We have heavy drapes in some windows & plastic on our porch. I have Window Quilts in my bedroom windows. These are regular quilts for a single/twin bed. We folded down the top edge & sewed it to form a rod sleeve. I slid them on tension rods & voila.Window quilts, they keep out a lot of cold air & they're nice looking. One of them has Jungle Cats , the other has Winnie the Pooh & friends. I don't care one bit if my room Matches. I have lightweight cat pattern curtains under them & lilac colored roll shades under those.
Mixing patterns is another way to save money.
