Getting good sleep starts with a calm, dark space. If you’re sensitive to light or live in a bright area, custom blackout curtains are one of the best upgrades you can make for better rest.
Why Blackout Curtains Matter
Block unwanted light
Custom blackout curtains are made to fit your windows exactly—no light leaks, no glare. Perfect for bedrooms, nurseries, and night shift workers.
Backed by science
A study from PNAS found that even dim light during sleep can raise your heart rate and disturb blood sugar levels. Keeping your room fully dark helps your body produce melatonin and stay in deep, healthy sleep.
Reduce outside noise
The thick fabric also helps absorb sound, creating a quieter, more restful space.
Improve temperature control
Blackout curtains help insulate your windows, keeping rooms cooler in summer and warmer in winter. That means more comfort and possible energy savings too.

Simple Tips for Better Results
-
Hang curtains high and wide
This helps block more light and makes your windows look bigger. -
Go for full blackout
Not all "blackout" curtains are 100%. Look for ones with certified blackout lining (like the ones above!). -
Layer with sheers
Add soft sheers underneath for daytime style without giving up privacy.
Bonus Tip: Keep Your Sleep on Track
The Sleep Foundation notes that blackout curtains help support your natural sleep cycle, especially REM sleep, which is essential for feeling rested and alert during the day.
