It is not surprising that blinds are a common option for bedrooms. Their versatility allows for the different times of day and what you want at any given time. You can close them at night for privacy and open them to let natural light in during the day. If you are trying to make the decision about going with blinds or considering other options such as Roman shades, shutters or drapes, you should start with considering how you sleep, how much maintenance you are comfortable with, the appearance and décor you like, and the features you’d like to have.
How you sleep is important because if you like an extra dark room, you won’t be happy with a sheer treatment that doesn’t keep street lights from shining in. If, on the other hand, you like waking to a sun-filled room and don’t mind a bit of extra light during the night, a thick treatment won’t make you happy. Blinds come in several different styles, including motorized, so you can open them while still in bed and let the sunrise aid in waking you up.
Maintenance is another factor to consider when choosing blinds or another treatment for your bedroom. Some types are challenging to keep clean, and if that is a concern for you, be sure to mention it to your window covering professional. They’ll also go over the best way to care for the various options, so you can choose a type that fits the time you have available to maintain them.
Appearance, décor, and features are also considerations that your window covering provider can address. It is even possible to combine treatments so you can get the features of two types. For example, using thick, durable wooden blinds for longevity and style while adding a soft drape to match other décor is a great combination.
