bathroom blind


Window shades are an important feature of the home and office interior. Often other rooms offer a lot of felicity for the choice of curtains, blinds or shades. But when it comes to the bathroom the choice becomes somewhat difficult. Not all the bathrooms in homes are roomy enough to accommodate large curtains and draperies. Though there is a lot of variety of shades for the smaller windows but for the bathrooms people mostly stick to conventional shades or blinds to protect their privacy.

I tell you 2 most important factors to keep in mind while choosing shades for the bathroom.

The first factor is that the bathroom must experience sunlight, while protecting your privacy.

Being an interior designer and home keeper for 10 years now, I believe that the bathrooms should experience sunlight. Considering that the shades made of hard and solid material are completely out. Because on complete closure, these shades won t allow a single ray to pass making the bathroom darker and would also increase your electricity bills. Therefore shades with soft material which can be rolled from top to bottom or otherwise are advised to use.

Roman shades and other roller shades have also proven good in keeping the bathroom and its other elements out of sight for the people in the neighborhood. These shades are designed with a material that allows the sunlight to pass but the human eye can not see through them.

The second factor is that the shades must be water and humidity resistant.

Hard material particularly timber made shades are not all the right thing as they tend to degrade due to the moist condition. Here again, the Roman shades are a better option. Particularly the ones with the rolling capability are made out of moisture resistant fabric.

The third factor is the satisfaction of your aesthetics

My advice on this is that just keep the above two factors in mind. You will be surprised by the colors, textures and prints available for choice.

Careful selection of the Bathroom shade can make your showers a blissful time. It is worth taking some pain in selecting the right option instead of facing a dark and open to all bathroom everyday. Colored mini blinds are a great choice for the smaller windows in your bathroom, they are designed for smaller windows, and come in great colors.
