Roman Blinds Bedroom Ideas
If you are not sure what blind is the right choice for your bedroom, here are some things you may want to ask yourself to help you find your perfect match.
For the light sleeper
If you or someone in your home needs complete darkness for a good night's sleep, a blackout blind is the best option. Using a specially coated lining, any glare from bright streetlamps or passing cars can be kept to a minimum whenever the blind is drawn across. In this bedroom, we have chosen a Duette® Blackout blind as it comes with the extra benefit of fitting directly into the window recess to help reduce light gaps.
If daytime privacy is important
Much like curtains, some blinds only have the option of blocking out natural light or being left open. So for better privacy control, choosing a Venetian blind or semi-transparent fabric will help obscure any views from outside while still allowing light to enter your room. Sheer fabrics like the Silhouette® blind pictured here take this a step further, allowing sunlight to filter through the soft fabric layers while preventing prying eyes from looking in.
A look for day and for night
If privacy and light control are both just as important for your bedroom, a smart choice would be a blind that uses two fabrics to give you an option for the day and for the night. These can come in a variety of different styles which can be tailored to suit your needs. The Twin Shade blinds pictured here, for example, have a blackout fabric on the top and a softer translucent fabric below, which can both be easily hidden or revealed when you need them throughout the day.
Something bold for the kids
A child's bedroom might feel like much more than a place to sleep, so it makes sense that anything you add should reflect their own style and individuality. Blinds can be that vibrant burst of colour that makes this room feel different to the rest of the house. Just make sure any blind is fitted with a retractable cord or go cordless altogether to ensure your little ones will always be safe around it.
A charming alternative to curtains
If you like curtains but are looking to save space, Roman blinds offer the same homely feel with the added perk of neatly folding up into soft pleats whenever the sun is shining. From charming patterns to bold plain fabrics, Roman blinds can also be finished with a thermal or blackout lining to help you add the finishing touch to your own sleep sanctuary.
