Would it work to use this material and make it into a roman shade?

Yes just make sure you tie it to a frame otherwise it will flap with high winds

You actually can sew it....I did when I had to join two sections together.Be sure to use heavy duty needles if you sew it yourself.

I have many coolaroo shade various sizes. Can make into roman shade,if put on top of wood to make patio I use screw with washers then add wood 2x2 as trim. Sew it together has to be strong.

Nothing to add to the previous answers: I haven't tried those materials myself either, but I think it should work. Good luck.PS: If you do end up trying it out, why not let us all know how it went?

it would definitely provide shade.... although despite the vent in the back, it didn't have a whole lot of air flow unless you were right near the front.

I am sorry but I do not use this material for that purpose. I am not familiar with what you are asking. Sorry

The fabric appears to be vinyl/polyester. I believe you can dye the lamp shade.

The top of the side wall is attached to the frame via Velcro. So, as long as the shade is 10'x10' and it has vertical legs (not slanted), it should works.

It should work- this stuff is pretty sticky. Double check the 3M site for applications, but I think it should be good. You want to spray down both the surface and the fabric separately, about 2 coats on each. Let them dry for about 10 mins, then stick them together. Be really delicate with attaching the fabric to the surface, because once it's on there- it holds pretty tightly. Good luck with your project!

Hi Marylou-Absolutely; I have an outdoor patio shade that is constantly exposed to the weather and, after six plus months it looks perfectly fine. The use for an outdoor tent would certainly be far more benign on the material than my application.

Yes, but you may need a strip of double face tape to secure it since the initial application wore off the sticky. Ideally the shade should be a tight fit to eliminate drafts. (In a basement window, I stapled the top of shade )

Hi Thomas, That's a good question. If there is a way to fasten it yes. We put it on a metal grid mesh with grommets and zip ties. It certainly provides the much needed shading.

Just to clarify, the shade is not made from glass. It is made of resin (ie. plastic).

Yes, that is definitely the most common method. Remember, this material is unsupported so it needs to be stretched tight in all directions for best results. For a different look or more portability you can also check out the version of this that has finished edges. Thanks!

Hi, could you post pictures please? I'm interested in this shade and would love to see your end result!

The circles are big on the pattern so the valance would need to be wide enough to a accommodate the pattern. I don't think it would work for a valance. I made a roman shade so the whole pattern displays

Not at all. The darkest shade will work perfectly for you. It looks a lot lighter in the package than it actually is.

Yes. It would be great for that. You could use a piece of siding to press the texture in it.

Yes, but need a little modification. You have to screw in this shade permanently.
