Bedroom Curtains

This depends on how sensitive you are to light. If you are a light sleeper, shift worker, or just love a pitch-black room, blackout curtains are the best choice as they block almost all external light. If you prefer a softer, filtered light and want to reduce glare without total darkness, fully-lined curtains are a wonderful option.

Both cotton and linen are fantastic choices. Linen curtains offer a relaxed, textured look that adds warmth and softness to a bedroom. Cotton curtains tend to have a smoother, cleaner finish. Both are natural, breathable, and look beautiful. 

You can compare them in our linen vs cotton guide.

Getting the right size is key to keeping light out. We recommend measuring the width of your pole or track, not the window itself, and then deciding where you want the curtains to end (at the sill, radiator, or floor). For a full, luxurious look in the bedroom, we often suggest floor-length.
