Default Idea for sunroom blinds

Hi,
Looking for ideas to window treat my sunroom. This sunroom is build
around the kitchen and there is very little privary. Window frames are
not deep enough to hung regular blinds.
Appreciate if anyone post your ideas or point to a site in Internet
for further research.
Thank you

We replaced window treatments on two triple width sliders and another
large window, considered a number of different things. Roman shades are
nice, can be home-made. Some of the bamboo or grass roll-ups are nice,
but some allow a lot to be seen. I considered buying inexpensive bamboo
and applying a fabric lining to the outside for more privacy - haven't
done it but it is doable. Might not even need to stitch it on - there
are spray adhesives that work with fabric but haven't tried those,
either. I ended up making lined draperies - two sets for 11' wide
sliders - which are much too expensive to think about custom-made.

Sliding louvered panels? Vertical blinds? Hang a track on the ceiling
for plain fabric with eyelets for hooks?

Must the sunroom windows afford privacy, rather than just kitchen window
treatment?
