If you’re ‘blinded by the light’ every morning, it’s time to put an end to it with blackout shades.
Many of us sleep poorly enough as it is – we don’t need the sun waking us up at the crack of dawn, especially on the weekend. While I can’t help you with whatever is keeping you up (or waking you up) throughout the night, I can at least help you keep the sun away… at least while you’re sleeping. Once you’re up, do let the sunshine in – get some vitamin D and much, much-needed serotonin! But while you’re in dreamland – make sure you stay there with blackout shades in cool colors. And I mean literally cool, not that they’re not cool too – the other kind of cool. You get what I mean (I hope). As I was saying, if you want to get a good night’s sleep – or, at the very least get the sun out of your hair in the wee hours – blackout shades can help. Or, just roller shades – they do the trick too, especially when they’re made with dark materials. (That sounds weirdly ominous but I’ll explain…)
How cool colors help you sleep better
Ever heard of color theory? It’s a concept used in all forms of visual arts and design, which explains how colors combine to create certain feelings and moods. Now, I’m not saying you need to paint your bedroom black (no shade to Holly Humberstone), but you may want to consider some cooler hues such as mint green, lavender, and brown-grey for your shades.
Cool colors help you create a calming and relaxing bedroom atmosphere that’s perfect for sleeping. I mean, it makes sense – what makes you feel at ease: the greens and blues of a forest, or the bright red, yellow, and orange color explosion of a mall, for example?
Pick a nice cool, natural hue – blue, purple, brown, green, etc. – or combine some colors. Blue and white are always a good match; navy and grey, too; or if you really are set on black, you can combine it with lavender.
How blackout shades help you sleep better
Of course, you can use those cool colors on your entire bedroom – and you probably should – but today, as you know, we’re talking shades. Blackout shades are the best if your number one goal is to block the sun.
Whether that’s just because you want to get a good night’s sleep – or because of your vampiric tendencies – blackout shades will keep you out of reach of those pesky sun rays.
Seriously now, blackout shades have many benefits, such as:
- UV and light protection
- improved energy efficiency
- better sound insulation
- privacy!
- … the list goes on.
And if you’re worried that blackout shades alone won’t quite give you that ‘wow factor‘, you can always combine them with some elegant curtains. Just make sure you pick colors that go together – and that’s something a professional can help with!
Cool blackout shades made to measure
Sure, you could buy your shades ‘off the rack’ but… at least hear me out first. I mean, you’ve stayed with me this far – and since you stayed, you probably found some value in what I’m saying.
Good. This part is equally – if not more! – important, because the last thing you want is to get your new blackout shades, get excited about getting a good night’s sleep… only to realize that the thing you bought at the big-box store won’t quite fit your windows, or doesn’t cover the whole window, or that it looks ugly.
That’s why you should get your shades made to measure.
Now I don’t know much about that process, to be perfectly honest – I’m not much of a handyman. But, that’s why we have professionals like Inside Solutions – I got all my info from them.

So pick your style, color, and material, and get yourself some much-needed sleep at night and serotonin during the day – because shades are also great for light control.
