My kitchen window used to have curtains and honestly it was a nightmare keeping them clean given how close they were to the stove. Switched to a simple roller blind instead and it's been so much easier, just wipe it down instead of dealing with washing fabric constantly. Also put a slim roller blind in my tiny home office since regular curtains felt like they were eating up space in such a small room when fully open. Still debating between curtains vs blinds for my bedroom though since I want something softer there. Went to Kingdom of Curtains to compare blind options alongside curtains since they had both available to look at together. Anyone else switch from curtains to blinds in high-mess areas and never look back?
