We put up regular blinds in our bedroom, and I was thinking that it would be good to wake up to the natural light since I'm not a morning person.

But we have 5 windows that face east and it was just waaaay too bright! So I put blackout shades on 3 of the windows and it is sooo much better. Going to put a blackout shade on a 4th window too.

What is the light in your bedroom like?
