Does anyone have the sizes for cellular shades for a 26 side bath Canyon Lands?

Thanks!

Rickmo,
There is really no set size for the cellular shades. Width can depend on how your windows are configured, how much overhang you want on the sides, where you want to mount the tops, etc. Both Home Depot and Lowes have booklets that will help you with those decisions. If you are using the shades for their insulating value you will want to consider some form of "cap" on the sides to reduce heat/cold from migrating around the shades.
