Look around, you might have something suitable. One effective filter that isn't common any more is the overexposed leader end from developed colour negative photographic film. Some other common items appear black but are transparent to IR. You can use a IR remote control and digital camera to examine the characteristics of likely candidates.

Sorry I haven't anything who is that clear to use it (even temporary).
