Perfect bedroom window treatments

Whether you’re five years old or 50, your bedroom is your haven.

Your quiet and private area that is reserved for only you to enjoy.

Whether the bedroom in question is reserved solely for sleeping or is used for studying and playing too, it is essential to get the interior and finishing correct for the room to function to its full potential.

Depending on who the room is for, the bedroom window treatments should match the needs and requirements of the room. Little details such as colour, material and style can go a long way to make huge differences to your home.

Room by room, let’s explore the best bedroom window treatments for:

Children’s Rooms

Children’s bedrooms should be light, airy and welcoming. They should be a place where a child can feel safe and can enjoy their freedom, more than in other rooms in the house where there may be items that they can’t be left alone with.

When it comes to choosing the right bedroom window treatments there are a few things to consider. Does your child take naps? Do they go to bed before it becomes dark? If you answered yes to either of those questions, we recommend installing blockout blinds or curtains. They are both designed to block out all light and keep even a sun-facing room dark and cool when necessary, making nap times and bed times easier to establish.

One of the many advantages of choosing blockout blinds or curtains is that they can be opened easily and tucked away neatly, providing unobstructed views and a seamless connection with the great outdoors.

As with installing anything in your child’s bedroom, safety is paramount; at Curtain & Blind Co. all of our bedroom window coverings come with the relevant safety equipment and free instructions for installation. For more information, read our Important Safety Advice about blind and curtain cords.

Teenagers’ Rooms

Eventually it’ll be time to upgrade your little one’s bedroom into a space for a teen. If their window treatments are outdated or feel more suited to a younger child, consider updating them to better match their age. Allow your teen to express their personality and create a private space with stylish and affordable window treatments from Curtain & Blind Co.

Roller blinds are a practical, versatile choice for any teen's bedroom, available in a range of classic colours. If your teen prefers a softer look, consider silky voile sheer curtains. These curtains keep the room light and airy while providing daytime privacy. Pair the sheers with blackout roller blinds for additional light control and privacy. Plus, giving your teenager’s bedroom a makeover could, in fact, encourage your child to keep it cleaner, be more sociable and invite more friends to the house.

Your Room

Your bedroom is the most important room in the house; the luxurious sanctuary you may have been dreaming about your entire life. Collecting furniture, bedding and paintings throughout the years has meant you finally have the bedroom of your dreams and can go to bed in your perfect surroundings.

Whether it’s a walk in wardrobe, a 42” flat screen TV or an antique dressing table, you each have your own prized possession that has made the stamp on your room, however the key to a perfect bedroom is the ability to change the mood and atmosphere for its different needs.

Good lighting and your choice of bedroom window blinds or curtains are the perfect ingredients for introducing light control. Spotlights, or lights that can be dimmed, as well as candles, are perfect for creating a mood at nighttime.

A combination of venetian blinds and sheer curtains create the ability to manipulate light and therefore the overall atmosphere of the room. Adding sheers will frame your view and add a touch of luxury to any simple interior.

Guest Rooms

Guest bedrooms are the least trafficked rooms in our homes – even when guests are frequent. However, that doesn’t mean the interior should be compromised on, it should be simple, fresh and not focus too much on a singular theme or style.

Sleeping in another person’s home for the first time can be a little uncomfortable. Sleeping in a bed guests are not familiar with, and with sounds and light that they aren’t used to, can make for a restless night’s sleep – however guest rooms can also have to ability to feel like luxury hotels where you receive the unbeatable benefits of “knowing the owner”.

The trick to having the perfect guest room is simple – provide the tools to let your guests make up their own minds. For example, provide a fan and a heater, quality bedroom curtains or blinds, a duvet and bed sheets and leave your guest to decide what they would prefer.

Roller Blinds paired with curtains give your guests the choice about how much light they would like in the day, as well as the option of how dark they would like their room to be when they sleep – meaning they can sleep easy and you can be the hostess with the mostess!
