What's different?
- Absolutely Mama Award: Gold, for best Nursery / Interiors Product. Winning over huge household brands like Stokke and Silver Cross who were competing in the same category
- Clean + Conscious Awards: Silver, in the Baby Accessories category
- 100% organic cotton fabric with safe and non-toxic dyes
- Our fabric is totally natural with no PVC, meaning, unlike many conventional black out blinds, it’s safe to leave up in direct sunlight and won’t leach chemicals into the air
- Versatile, size adjusting blackout blinds to fit almost any window with 9 movable super sticky suction cups to ensure a close fit to the glass, blocking out maximum light
- High performance suction cups which stick easily (no licking required!!)
- Easy to fold away and store
- Comes in a cotton drawstring bag for easy storage and travel
- These blind provide almost total blackout but as we do not use any artificial coatings or synthetic fabrics they will let in some light if in direct sun
Size
- Dimensions: 130cm x 200cm
- Dimensions (folded in travel bag): 32cm x 43cm
- Weight: Approximately 1kg
Important Information
- GOTS certified organic cotton
- Block out majority of light but please note, as we don’t use any artificial coatings or synthetic fabrics, a very minimal amount of light may penetrate the blinds when in direct sunlight. They achieve around 95% darkness (which is dark enough to need a torch or other light source to navigate the bedroom when the blinds are correctly in place!).
- NOT FOR USE AS A TOY OR BLANKET. For intended purpose only
- If needed, remove suction cups and hand wash (regular washing not recommended)
- In the unlikely event that suction cups don’t stick, it’s probably because there’s a bit of oil or grease on the window. Wipe the window area and suction cup with a wet wipe and try again. For extreme grease, you can wash suction cup with water and soap.

Pure Earth Collection have some amazing products. I have recently purchased a blackout blind for the babies room, love them and want some for my room now.
Kate Arnell –
These blackout blinds have been excellent – especially on nights when the moon shines super bright! They claim to fit almost any window and we certainly tested that with our peculiar shaped windows.

Quick delivery, quality product.
Ashlee –
Pretty darn great. They are about 95% black out only because our bb’s window is in direct sunlight. I was able to fit to the long, odd-shaped, original windows and I know they will fit great when the window is eventually replaced. SO so so glad it is all organic and non-toxic. We used right out of the bag. THANK YOU. Love what your company is doing for the world and that I found you!!
Georgie –
Great quality and has transformed bedtime!

First night after using this we had to wake Clara up at 7am! Sticks easily and stays up.

Quality curtain mercifully free of nasties. Def passed the sniff test! Thank you for solving the problem.
Nicola Williams –
Deeply disappointing.
The first thing that hit me was the smell (some sort of highly scented product) which I think came from the packaging rather than the product.
Secondly – the biggest disappointment was the curtain’s inability to block out light. Yes the room is darkened but the light still comes through the fabric which is not thick enough or tightly woven enough to block light fully. You also get light coming in around the edges and where the top flops down. That light can be quite blinding in the morning!
Thirdly – the idea that it “fits almost any window” is ridiculous.
Fourthly – the suction cups smell very strongly of PVC and I would like to know what they are made from and if they have phthalates and other toxins which will be warming up nicely in a hot window!

Hi Nicola, Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback.
We’re very sorry to hear that you’re not happy with your blind. We do of course want all of our customers to be happy with their purchases, which is why we offer a 60 day returns policy. If your item is still unused and you have the packaging then please get in touch with us at hello@pureearthcollection.com and they will be able to help with this. To your points below:
1. We definitely don’t use any scented products on in our manufacturing or packaging processes. The packaging bags are 100% organic cotton (as well as the blind itself) and they are totally untreated. As we do not use any plastic packaging on our products we wonder if maybe it has picked up a smell in transit. As these blinds were sent out so quickly they have not had time in our warehouse, it’s likely this smell will dissipate with time. We’ll be contacting the transit company to find out what might have happened here – perhaps there are extra Covid regulations for increase air sprays in transit.
2. As we are really strict about not using any sort of synthetic materials or fabric coatings, it’s not possible for these blinds to block out 100% of light (without otherwise being such a thick and heavy weave they would be in-practical and not stick to the window). The ones which block out 100% light are made from synthetic fabrics. We do mention this on our website because we want people to be clear about what they are buying. We’re sorry if you were not aware of this before hand – we will make sure that this information is more obvious for the future.
2/3. The light should not be able to come in around the top when the blinds are fitted correctly to the window. We would be happy to arrange a video call with you to talk through how best to stick them to the window without any cracks around the edges. Please email us at the above address if you would like to do that.
4. We have carefully sourced these suction cups to ensure that they do not contain any phthalates or other nasty toxins. We are very strict on this ourselves.
I hope this helps and please do contact us if you would like any further advice or information.

Update and response to Emma’s reply:
Thanks for answering my queries. It’s good to know that there are no nasties in the suction cups.
You are right, the smell came from the box it was delivered in and it did fade when I aired the blind outside.
I understand and appreciate that you don’t use synthetic materials to block the light. However I was not expecting the fabric to be so loosely woven or for the light to come in as much as it did. The photos on the product page don’t show this. I can send photos if you wish.
I will contact you for advice on fitting the blind to the window. I can’t see a way to stop it bagging and letting in light at the edges. The suction pads also pop off at times so I may need to clean the window with spirits in case there is some grease.
Nicola Williams –
Update to say – thank you Emma for the video and for taking the time to help. Unfortunately, the size of my windows means there is always bagging fabric at the top no matter how I position the suction cups. It needs suction cups where there are no suction cups!
We tried. Thank you again. Have upgraded to three stars because of the customer support!
The “blackout” blinds would be more accurately called “room darkening” blinds I feel.
Sophie –
Delivery was quicker than expected. Great product, really hard to find non toxic blackout blinds and these are perfect!

Brilliant, massive and stays put…lovely quality too. As it mentions in the description its not 100% blackout but it does the job really well.. we’ve got in on our window under our normal blind. Very happy and i recommend above the other blackout items available on the market.

Terrific blinds. So grateful to Emma for producing these. Far better and effective alternative to PVC blinds which unfortunately we had been using. Great customer service and wow, super fast shipping to Australia. Overall impressive.
