Room Darkening Shades: Give Mom Her Best Sleep
This Mother’s Day, forgo breakfast in bed and give Mom the sleep she deserves every night of the year with room-darkening shades. You can achieve the perfect balance of light and privacy for your primary bedroom, leading to a better night’s sleep. Blind Corners carries Hunter Douglas window treatments, which include the best options for making your home dark and quiet so Mom can enjoy an incredible, full night’s sleep.
Popular Room Darkening Shades
Room darkening shades adjust the natural light in your bedroom and reduce the glare on your screens from sunlight or streetlights outside your home. Your shades can improve energy efficiency and reduce noise pollution. They even protect your furnishings and carpet from fading by blocking up to 81% of UV rays. Common choices for room darkening shades include:
- Designer Roller Shades have hundreds of fabrics in a wide array of color combinations, patterns, and designs. The roller style reduces light gaps, so streetlights and headlights won’t shine on Mom’s face and wake her.
- Luminette® Privacy Sheers and Silhouette® Sheer Shades are made from semi-opaque fabrics. They can be turned to reduce light and provide privacy, and they’re a fantastic choice if you have a balcony attached to your bedroom.
- Vignette® Roman Shades, which have a crisp, contemporary style available in multiple colors. They can be paired with the Top-Down/Bottom-Up system for light control.
Top Choice for Room Darkening Shades
For the most impactful darkness in your bedroom, select Duette® Cellular Shades. These room-darkening shades use the DuoLite® and LightLock® systems. The two systems work together to give Mom control to make it as dark as she needs.
- The DuoLite system uses two panels of fabric. One panel filters light, blocks the UV rays, and still adds a layer of privacy. The other panel blocks lights, so early-morning sunrise won’t hit Mom’s face and wake her.
- The LightLock system uses overlapping U-shaped panels that reduce light gaps. The fabric deflects or absorbs incoming light, so it stays out of the bedroom.
Duette® Cellular Shades also feature Honeycomb cells. The honeycomb structure traps air and creates a layer of insulation. When it’s up against a window, it creates a buffer between the outside temperature and the inside temperature, which keeps the room warmer in winter and cooler in summer. It also absorbs sound, so Mom won’t hear the neighbor’s obnoxiously loud engine roaring to life.
Together, these three elements create a complete blackout so Mom can fall into a deep and restful sleep and stay there.
Give Her the Power of Automation
To get the most out of your room darkening shades, opt to have them motorized. An app can control the window room darkening shades from anywhere, so when Mom’s ready for bed or if she needs a nap before the kids get home from school, it’s a simple tap. The system can also run automatically, so she doesn’t need to remember to adjust them.
This Mother’s Day, give Mom the gift that keeps on giving – Hunter Douglas room darkening shades for a better night’s sleep every night of the year. With more than 20 years of experience serving Roseville, CA, El Dorado Hills, Sacramento County, CA, and Northern California, the professionals at Blind Corners can get you the best window treatments for your home.
