Think of blinds and shades as the outfit for your windows — they set the mood, control the light, and can make a small room feel cozy or a big room feel polished. Beyond looks, the right window treatment boosts privacy, improves energy efficiency, and even reduces glare on screens. If you're sprucing up your home, picking blinds that fit your lifestyle is as important as picking the right paint color.
If you prefer clean lines and fuss-free operation, roller blinds are a top pick — and the Himla Sunday Roller Blind is a great example. It’s designed for a minimalist aesthetic and smooth rolling action, perfect for modern living rooms, kitchens, or bedrooms. The Sunday Roller is offered in neutral tones that blend with most decor schemes and delivers a neat, streamlined look when lowered or raised.
These roller blinds come in a range of widths that suit common window sizes: roughly 39" x 71", 51" x 71", 63" x 71", and a mid-range 43" x 71". That variety makes it easy to find a nearly perfect fit without special measuring unless you have an odd-sized window.
The Himla Sunday Roller is typically offered in options like White, Oatmeal, and Ash — neutrals that act like a designer’s blank canvas. White brightens and keeps a room feeling airy, Oatmeal brings warmth without overwhelming, and Ash gives a slightly cooler, textured feel. Each finish pairs well with natural wood or painted trims.
Roller blinds are especially handy in kitchens and bathrooms where a sleek profile and easy cleaning matter. They’re also a smart choice for rooms with lots of sunlight because they can be fitted with light-filtering or blackout fabrics depending on how much daylight you want to let in.
Roman blinds bring a touch of softness and architectural interest thanks to their graceful folds. The Himla Miramar Roman Blind is a charming option if you want something that reads more like a curtain but behaves like a blind. Its structured pleats create depth and texture, making it a fantastic choice for living rooms, dining spaces, and bedrooms where style matters as much as function.
The Miramar Roman typically comes in sizes such as 35" x 71", 43" x 71", 55" x 71", and 51" x 71", covering the most commonly encountered window widths. These sizes are handy for standard sash windows and many casement windows too.
Like the Sunday roller, Miramar Roman blinds often arrive in neutral hues, including White and Oatmeal. The fabric weight and weave influence how the light filters into your room: lighter fabrics let in a soft glow while heavier fabrics provide more privacy and insulation.
Want a softer, layered look? Romans pair beautifully with curtains and valances. They bring vertical interest without the rigid slats of Venetian blinds and are a great way to add a textile touch to contemporary interiors.
Getting the right size is the first step to a polished window treatment. Common sizes you’ll find for the products above are approximately: 32" x 71", 35" x 71", 39" x 71", 43" x 71", 51" x 71", 55" x 71", and 63" x 71". These measurements represent width x drop and will suit most standard windows.
For an interior mount (inside the window frame): measure the exact width at the top, middle, and bottom and use the smallest measurement. For an outside mount (above the frame): measure the width of the area you want to cover and add 2" to 3" on each side to reduce light gaps. Want privacy? Go wider. Want drama? Add extra drop for a layered look.
Material affects how much light a blind blocks, how it insulates, and how easy it is to clean. Roller blinds come in materials ranging from sheer to blackout, while Roman blinds vary by fabric weight and lining. If you work night shifts or crave total darkness in the bedroom, blackout-lined roller or roman blinds are lifesavers. If you prefer a soft, sunlit glow, light-filtering fabrics keep the room bright while maintaining privacy.
Blackout fabrics block nearly all daylight and help keep rooms cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Light-filtering fabrics let in diffuse light while obscuring views from outside — ideal for living rooms. Sheer options are all about soft daylight and a more ethereal feel, best for layered looks with curtains.
Installing a roller or Roman blind is often a weekend project. With some basic tools and a bit of patience you can fit most blinds without calling in a pro. Roller blinds usually require a bracket at each end and sometimes a middle support for wider widths. Roman blinds might need a few more mounting points to keep the folds even, but the process is straightforward.
Grab a tape measure (inches!), a spirit level, a drill, screws, and a pencil. Mark bracket locations, pre-drill holes, fit the brackets, and hang the blind. For heavier or wider blinds use wall anchors or a middle support bracket. If you’re uncertain about drilling into specialty frames or tiling, consider using a professional fitter for peace of mind.
Not every blind type suits every room. Roller blinds score for simplicity and minimalism, Roman blinds win on texture and softness, and alternatives like Venetian, vertical, cellular, and plantation shutters each bring unique benefits. Venetian blinds offer adjustable slats for precise light control, vertical blinds are excellent for sliding doors, while cellular shades provide superb insulation thanks to their honeycomb design.
Bathrooms and kitchens: roller blinds in moisture-resistant fabrics. Bedrooms: blackout roller or Roman blinds for sleep-friendly darkness. Living rooms: Roman or cellular shades for a cozy, inviting atmosphere. Sliding patio doors: vertical blinds or panel track blinds that glide smoothly.
Motorization turns blinds from manual to smart with a tap or voice command. Motorized roller and Roman blinds work with home automation platforms and make life easier for high or hard-to-reach windows. They’re also safer for homes with children or pets because they eliminate long pull cords.
Motorized blinds add convenience and a modern vibe. Schedule your blinds to open with morning sunlight, lower them for privacy at dusk, or sync them with your thermostat to boost energy savings. While they add cost upfront, the comfort and safety benefits can be worth it.
Keeping blinds clean depends on the material. Roller blinds usually wipe clean with a damp cloth, while Roman blinds may need gentle vacuuming with a brush attachment or spot cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals on natural fabrics and follow any manufacturer care instructions. Regular dusting prevents buildup that dulls fabrics and can shorten a blind’s lifespan.
For dust: use a microfiber cloth or a vacuum brush. For stains on roller blinds: a mild soap solution typically does the trick. For delicate Roman fabrics: spot test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. And occasional rotation of the slats or fabric can reduce sun-fade on colored materials.
Price is important, but value matters most. Compare similar models across reputable retailers and comparison sites to see which offers better warranties, fabric options, and customer reviews. Look for seasonal sales, bundle discounts for multiple windows, and verified-user photos to check real-world colors and textures. Always factor in installation costs if you’re not installing yourself.
Ask: Is there an option for custom sizing? What is the fabric composition and its maintenance needs? Does the fitted model include child-safe features or motorization? Checking these points helps you avoid surprises and ensures the blinds you pick match both your windows and your lifestyle.
Eco-minded shoppers can find blinds made from recycled or sustainably sourced materials. Cellular shades are particularly effective at insulating windows, which can lower heating and cooling needs — good for your wallet and the planet. Look for natural fibers with low-impact dyes if you’re after a greener footprint.
Adding a blackout lining or choosing a cellular shade can make a real difference in keeping rooms warmer in cooler months and cooler in summer. Even small measures, like fitting blinds snugly inside the frame or overlapping an outside mount, reduce drafts and improve energy performance.
Don’t forget the details: valances and pelmets hide fittings and add a tailored finish, while side channels or blackout borders eliminate light gaps. Cord cleats and cordless options increase child safety. If you want a more bespoke feel, trim and decorative tapes can give roller or Roman blinds an elevated, custom-made appearance.
Before you click buy, run through this quick checklist: Measure twice in inches and double-check whether you need an inside or outside mount; pick the fabric based on light and privacy needs; decide on manual vs motorized operation; factor in installation; and compare warranties and reviews. With this list in your pocket you’ll be ready to choose confidently.
Whether you’re drawn to the minimalist charm of the Himla Sunday Roller Blind or the soft elegance of the Himla Miramar Roman Blind, the right window treatment can transform a room. Think about size, fabric, and function — and don’t be afraid to mix styles across rooms. With thoughtful measuring, a clear idea of how much light and privacy you need, and a few design touches, your windows will look and feel like they belong in a magazine spread.
