Picking Shades and Blinds for Bedroom Spaces
Now that another gorgeous Virginia autumn is here, it's time to cozy up your bedroom space for leisurely evenings of reading, movie watching, and preparing for some restful slumber. While you can buy new pajamas and check out our tips for creating a more restful bedroom, new window treatments are one of the best ways to make your sleeping quarters more comfortable.
Our team at Unusual Designs is eager to share a few of our favorite window coverings that will add style and function to your bedroom. Read on to learn which blinds and shades we recommend to upgrade your space!
Romantic Roman Shades
Roman shades are a fantastic choice for many bedroom styles whether you’re interested in a more modern and streamlined space or a more traditional, romantic retreat. Featuring your choice of tailored full or flat fabric folds in rolling or stacking styles, Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman Shades are a perfect fit for those who enjoy architectural lines that draw your eye around the room as well as those who enjoy a more flowing, romantic appeal.
You can select from over 25 fabric and color choices in either a 4" full fold or 6" flat fold to blend into your interior design or stand out and make your windows the focal point of your bedroom. They have no exposed rear cords, so the look is neat and uncluttered.
We offer these luxurious shades in three different opacities, from sheer to room-darkening. For advanced light and privacy management, you can opt for our Top-Down/Bottom-Up design, which allows for varied lighting scenarios.
Selecting The Best Bedroom Blinds
Blinds are an excellent window treatment for bedroom spaces because they are so versatile. It’s no wonder why they are one of the most popular styles of window covering in the country—their convenient construction of slats can rotate open or closed to vary the amount of light in the space, and they and roll up and out of the way for clear views.
If you’ve been comparing faux wood vs wood blinds for your bedroom, we do have a solid recommendation: for most adults, the look and texture of real wood stands out as a fantastic accent for bedroom spaces. These blinds allow easy light and privacy management by simply tilting the slats. You can open the slats and enjoy the outdoor scenery without lifting the blind entirely.
Parkland® Wood Blinds are the best choice if you want the look and feel of wood blinds and the added aesthetic they provide to your bedroom space. These blinds are made of real wood with paint colors and stain colors with true grain that adds a natural vibe to each window. They maintain their luster over the years, so you do not need to worry about the finish dulling.
If you want to enhance the look further, try a fabric or wood cornice or add decorative tapes in various patterns and colors to cover your cord holes and give your bedroom more light control.
Insulate Your Bedroom with Cellular Shades
Duette® Cellular Shades are well-suited if you want your bedroom to be more comfortable and energy efficient all year long. These shades trap air from entering or exiting your space with a special construction of honeycomb-shaped pockets so outside air does not enter your home. You can enjoy a warm, snug bedroom to relax in the fall and winter months while simultaneously saving on your energy consumption. These shades also absorb noise, guaranteeing a good night's rest.
Not only are Duette® Cellular Shades completely functional when it comes to insulation and sound absorption, but they also add a soft, rich ambiance to your room. We offer these shades in a wide array of colors, fabrics, and opacities, ranging from soft whites to pastels to earthy neutrals.
