Hi all,
I am the Carol of "Gordon 'n Carol" and thought I'd let you know how I solved the "sun in the shower" problem. I went to the fabric store and bought 1/2 yd each of white vinyl (like tablecloths) and the silver fabric that is used for ironing board covers. I sandwiched in some layers of dark fabric to block the light, cut it slightly larger than the frame of the skylight, and put white seam binding around edges. On all 4 sides I sewed on strips of the hook side of hook and loop tape to the silver side. I then glued the loop side of the tape to the frame of the skylight. The white blends in with the ceiling and the silver reflects the light and heat away. It is easy to put up and take down, can stay in place when you shower, and folds flat to store if you want to let the sun shine in!
