You need to consider a few things when looking for window coverings for your bathroom windows. Here are a few things to consider when shopping for the best blinds for bathroom windows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Material<\/li>\n<li>Privacy<\/li>\n<li>Light Control<\/li>\n<li>Functionality<\/li>\n<li>Colour<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Material<\/h3>\n<p>The first thing to consider is humidity. If your blinds are going into a powder room bathroom, this likely won\u2019t be an issue. But if the bathroom has a shower or bath, excessive humidity can be a problem. It can damage the blinds if you get a product that isn\u2019t water-resistant. Avoid wood products because they can retain moisture and slowly warp over time. You should also try to avoid sheer shades and fabrics as they will also retain moisture and could become susceptible to mould.<\/p>\n<h3>Privacy<\/h3>\n<p>You may want to avoid something like solar shades in the bathroom because when you switch the light on at night, they work in the reverse way. That means people can see in and you would be giving up your privacy. Instead, choose something that offers privacy.<\/p>\n<h3>Light Control<\/h3>\n<p>You probably want some natural light in your bathroom so light filtering fabrics are best for you. Blackout shades will give you maximum privacy but no light will enter the space. Instead, choose something that allows you to enjoy natural light without sacrificing privacy.<\/p>\n<h3>Functionality<\/h3>\n<p>Your shades have to be functional in the space. If you choose blinds with a cord, but the blinds are hard to reach, they aren\u2019t very functional. Consider your space. If you can\u2019t physically reach the shades easily \u2013 for example, skylight shades or blinds over the bathtub \u2013 then upgrade to a motorized lift system for simplicity.<\/p>\n<h3>Colour<\/h3>\n<p>You also want to consider colour. If your window is very close to a sink, you may not want to opt for something very light \u2013 especially if you have young children.<\/p>\n<h2>The Best Blinds for Bathroom Windows<\/h2>\n<p>Once you have considered all of the above, you\u2019re ready to make your selection. Still need a little help? No problem! Here are our top product recommendations for the bathroom:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-875\" src=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PID-272_CID-2159_3.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PID-272_CID-2159_3.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PID-272_CID-2159_3-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PID-272_CID-2159_3-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PID-272_CID-2159_3-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PID-272_CID-2159_3-676x676.jpeg 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Faux Wood Blinds and Aluminum Mini Blinds<\/h3>\n<p>These durable and affordable options are both water and humidity-resistant. That means they won\u2019t warp or bend due to excess moisture. They\u2019re also very practical and make it simple to control both light and privacy, as well.<\/p>\n<h3>Top-Down Bottom-Up Honeycomb Shades<\/h3>\n<p>This unique lift system allows light to come into the room by lowering the top, preserving your privacy. These are very practical for a room where you may want to maximize light without giving u your privacy. Plus, light filtering options allow light to flow through, as well.<\/p>\n<h3>Motorized Shades<\/h3>\n<p>We highly recommend adding a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.selectblindscanada.ca\/motorized-remote-control-motorization-blinds-shades\/\">motorized lift system<\/a> to your bathroom window treatments. This can make them very simple to operate, particularly if they\u2019re in a hard-to-reach spot. Plus, they minimize the wear and tear on your shades, which can lengthen their life span.<\/p>\n<h2>What to Avoid<\/h2>\n<p>For the bathroom windows, we recommend avoiding fabrics shades as they can retain moisture and develop mould. You should also steer clear of light-coloured shades because they can stain easily if you have them located near a sink.<\/p>\n<p>Which of our suggestions do you think are the best blinds for bathroom windows?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019re looking for new window blinds or window shades for your bathroom renovation project, you\u2019re in the right place!
