Blackout Blinds: Great For Master Suites

One of the best places for blackout blinds are in the master suite of a home. Often, once new homeowners remember that they need to purchase window coverings for their home, the master suite is left until last, often with bed sheets, Styrofoam sheets, or tinfoil. Blackout blinds are a cost-effective way to reduce the amount of light coming in through a window. But, to get the most effective result from your blackout blinds, you’ll need to make sure they are installed in your bedroom and any connecting room.

Sounds silly, right? Of course you would install blackout blinds in all connecting rooms. You’d be surprised how many people don’t. There are many people who will install blackout blinds on only one or two windows where the light is coming in the brightest. However, you may not realize how much light is coming in through other windows in your room because the other bright windows overpower it.

For the best result from your blackout blinds, you should install them on every window, even if you don’t think much light comes in through one. In a master suite, this means you need to cover all the windows in your bedroom, any sitting areas, the bathroom, and the closet. Once your room is darker, you’ll notice every other source of light.
