Window Shutters for Your Guest Bedroom

Decorating your guest bedroom is your chance to have some fun and add both personality and function for the benefit of your guests. As you’re selecting everything from furniture to duvet covers, don’t forget to think about window coverings, such as window shutters for your guest bedroom. Window treatments are important when it comes to both form and function, making window shutters a great choice.

Shutters offer a range of benefits for your guest bedroom, including privacy. They fit tight across the entire window, but the louvers can be tilted up or down to let light in while still maintaining privacy. Shutters are also great for guest bedrooms because they increase home security to keep your guests feeling safe and secure. Shutters completely block off the window so no one can see inside your home, and they stay firmly shut so no one can break-in.

Shutters also help keep your guests at a comfortable temperature as they are highly insulating. They form a barrier between the outside air and the window to help keep the inside air at the right temperature. As a bonus, this feature also helps you save on energy usage. Finally, shutters also come in a range of colors and styles to suit your guest room. You can also add curtains and other window finishes on top of the plantation shutters for a completely unique look.

Here are even more tips to help you get the most out of your guest bedroom window coverings:

  • Neutral Doesn’t Mean Boring
    It’s best to keep guest room décor neutral so as not to overwhelm your guests. But neural doesn’t mean boring. Make your neutral color scheme shine with subtle patterns, gradients, or tone-on-tone designs as well as textured fabrics and materials. You can also add pops of modern hardware on your shutter pulls or curtain rods for a modern touch.
  • Keep it Consistent
    Your guest room is part of your home. As such, it should have décor and window treatments that tie into the style of the rest of your house. While the window treatments in your guest room don’t have to be identical to the ones in your room or the living room, they should have a consistent color scheme or overall style to help pull the house together. Try using the same color curtains or the same shade of shutters to give your window treatments a consistent look.
  • Choose Warm Colors and Finishes
    Warm colors, meaning those with yellow, orange, or red undertones, will help make your guestroom feel cozy and inviting. While you can still toss in pops of cool colors like grays, purples, and greens, be sure to keep your overall color palate warm to soften the space and make it feel welcoming for your guests. You can also explore adding new colors and decor for variation between repeat visits.
