What are the Best Bedroom Window Treatments?

The Fabric Works window treatment design team doesn't recommend kitchen blinds for bedrooms for reasons you are likely familiar with. A bedroom should be a peaceful sanctuary that promotes relaxation and restful sleep; kitchens are the heart of a home for cooking, enjoying food, and gathering.

That's why the best bedroom window treatments control light and privacy in other ways, typically with softer aesthetics. Style, function, and color play key roles here. We have a few custom options from Hunter Douglas that are ideally suited for these important rooms in your home.

1. Hunter Douglas Blackout Roller Shades

All Hunter Douglas window treatments provide some light control, but some have more room-darkening capabilities than others. Roller shades stand out as a first option; they have a single fabric panel that fully covers a window when down. You can roll them up part-way or entirely into their headrails for brightness.

Hunter Douglas Designer Roller Shades come in different opacities that filter or block light; the clean lines complement modern, contemporary, and minimalist decor schemes. Choose from over 350 fabrics, from sheer to opaque—for more light control, consider the Duolite® system, Dual Roller design, or Blockout System. If you select the blackout roller shades option, you won't need to rely on your sleep mask anymore.

2. Cellular Shades for Insulation and Light Control

Cellular shades, also called honeycomb shades, are fine bedroom window treatments. They're known for energy efficiency, with an air-trapping barrier that regulates room temperatures. This energy-efficient design adds to a bedroom's comfort factor and can lower heating and cooling costs.

Duette® Cellular Shades are impressively versatile, offered in horizontal and vertical orientations and a wide range of sizes. We also customize them for specialty-shaped openings, like bays, angles, and corner windows. If your bedroom is typically too hot or cold, we recommend Duette® Architella®, a honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb design, for more energy efficiency. Are you a light sleeper? The LightLock™ and Duolite® systems have added light-blocking features.t

3. Layered Bedroom Window Treatments

Combining different window treatments elevates a bedroom's aesthetics. For a richly layered aesthetic, you can complement Hunter Douglas shades with custom drapery. We often suggest light-filtering sheer curtains layered over blackout roller shades or cellular shades. That gives you more flexibility for controlling natural light and maintaining privacy. During the day, sheer curtains soften incoming sunlight, while the secondary layer allows a darker, restful setting at night.

4. Woven Wood Shades

Hunter Douglas Provenance® Woven Wood Shades add organic appeal to bedrooms, crafted by artisanal weavers from sustainably sourced materials. They're available in Roman, Waterfall Roman, and Vertical Drapery styles; they have natural materials, so no two are exactly alike. Consider the Top-Down/Bottom-Up design or adding an independent liner for more light control and privacy.
