During our first week in the new home, we quickly learned one thing — blackout curtains are a must. Not because we planned it, but because the sunrise streams right into our room every morning, way earlier than we expected.
We didn’t realise it at first, but our master bedroom faces the east, so every morning around 6:45–7am, the sunlight comes in directly and wakes us up before we’re ready.
The soft glow is pretty, but when you’re still half-asleep, it feels more like a spotlight than a sunrise. 😅
Lesson learned — never underestimate the power of good blackout curtains! 🖤✨
They make such a difference to our sleep, our mornings, and the overall comfort of the room. Now, we can finally enjoy a proper lie-in without worrying about the sun creeping in, and the bedroom feels cozy and peaceful all day long. If you’re moving into a new place or planning a refresh, seriously, don’t skip this one!
