The shades that work in your kitchen can be the wrong call in your bedroom. Match the treatment to how you use the room.
Bedroom: room-darkening shades block early sun so you sleep past sunrise.
Living room: solar or cellular shades cut glare on the screen and keep the view.
Kitchen: faux wood blinds wipe clean and take the heat and steam.
Patio: outdoor shades drop the temperature so August evenings are usable.
Start with the room that annoys you the most.
