Creating Your Perfect Sunroom
Your sunroom should feature light, comfortable furniture, and colors you love. It should also fit your lifestyle, giving you more and better opportunities to enjoy it. At NH Blinds, we carry high-quality, brand-name sunroom window treatments that bring in the light and style you need. Here are some tips for creating your perfect sunroom.
#1: Select the Right Sunroom Window Treatments
For sunrooms, natural light allows you to bring the outdoors in. You also need privacy so you can enjoy your sunroom at night. Depending on how you want to use your sunroom and the overall look you’re hoping to achieve, some options may be better than others. Some of the top choices for sunroom window treatments are:
- Sheer Shades: These twist so you can enjoy an unobstructed view of the outdoors. You can also twist them to diffuse natural light to balance the amount that comes in. Turn them to align the room-darkening fabrics that provide privacy. Sheer window shades reduce glare and block UV rays.
- Blinds: These provide excellent light control, privacy, protection from UV rays, and glare reduction so you can enjoy your sunroom. Wood blinds and faux wood blinds for sunrooms also enhance the sophisticated look.
- Custom Draperies can pair well with other window treatments. Custom drapery can pull in colors and patterns from other parts of your sunroom to give it a cohesive look. You can select from fabrics ranging from sheer to room-darkening. Fabrics like silk, sateen, cotton, damask, velvet, and more add texture and drama.
#2: Find Comfortable Furnishings
Since it’s protected from wind, rain, and snow, you can select any furniture for your sunroom. Will it be luxurious leather or quiet, wooden rocking chairs? Consider whether your perfect sunroom is an adults-only space, primarily a kid’s play area, or a space for the whole family. Will you set guests up to sleep in it? Thinking through these questions will influence the furniture you choose.
- For an adults-only space, you can choose lighter wicker furniture, a drink cart, and a bookcase, creating an open space where you can sit and relax while the kids are asleep or at school.
- If you have young children, select durable furniture. Add a solid wooden table where you can play board games, or kids can color or build things.
- Consider a chest with blankets and pillows to quickly get your sunroom ready for guests.
#3: Add Color and Texture
Select a color palette unique to your sunroom it comes together cohesively. Choose colors that are bright, fresh, neutral, retro, or even on the dark and moody side. Make sure to use pops of color wisely and to intermingle everything with texture by:
- Adding greenery
- Using warm, fuzzy throw blankets, particularly in winter
- Exposed brick walls
- Wicker furniture
- Thick rugs
- Metal light fixtures
