Cut down on light and energy waste with room-darkening shades

If you're the kind of person that wears eye shades to fall asleep, there's a much more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing alternative. Room-darkening shades can help prevent air leakage during the winter and keep cool air in during the summer. In addition, they will provide the darkness you need to get a restful night's sleep.

Many scientific sleep studies have proven that sleeping in a dark, quiet room can not only help you get the rest you need, but can also improve mood and energy levels.

"We hope that we can help get these blinds into the homes of people who desperately need a good night's sleep. With the proper rest, creativity increases, mood improves and efficiency increases," said Chris Stanly of Blinds Chalet.

SlumberShades may be the perfect option for consumers who need additional darkness at night. In addition, the tops of the blinds are sealed to prevent light from filtering in for full room-darkening capability. The shades are made from a variety of versatile fabrics, offer energy-efficiency and are the official shade of the National Sleep Foundation.
