I got these for the children’s room. When it’s hot outside, I can smell chemicals from the blinds from outside the closed door. Heck, sometimes I can smell it from the next room over. I’m not sure if this chemical smell is safe for my sleeping baby. It’s strong and unpleasant. It’s a bit better if the blinds are down and closed… but the fact that there is this smell in the first place is surprising. A shame because they are very cute! Not sure if I will be returning or not.
