Blinds provide more privacy than curtains and better control over the amount of natural light in a room, but they can be difficult to clean. Curtains give you the opportunity to add shape, color, and texture to your windows, and can produce a more dramatic design statement. Think about the look you want in your room, how much you are willing to spend, and whether privacy is an issue.
