Blinds just don't seem to do well in high humidity areas long term.

We gave honeycomb shades in our master bath, right above the jacuzzi tub and we also have a steam shower in there. They have been up 20 years and still look great

I think the biggest thing for me is that blinds will rarely get used in a bathroom. you don't spend a ton of time in there... are you going to raise and lower the blinds every time? we have faux wood in one bath. they're always shut, even though they're accessible. if your window is over a tub, how often will you climb into the tub to open your blinds? we have film in the other (over the tub in our master) which I think is perfect.

I need to see the space or at least some idea of where the window is and what your style is. IMO an actual frosed glass is much nicer than afilm and you could look into the glass that has an electric charge that makes it opague with a flip of a switch.

Privacy film all the way!

Bottom up Top down honeycomb shades are a great way to have inside mount window treatment installed. And yes, you do need a light filtering shade in your bathroom. A minimalistic shade that you can keep close on the bottom while allowing natural light coming in on the top would be a great way.

THEIRS!!!

OURS:

I have had honeycomb blinds for 10 years and are in fine shape - have both a tub and shower. I wouldn’t want to have to adjust all the time though (have frosted glass).

I think it comes down to the style of your bathrooms, accessibility to windows and having to adjust. Wouldn’t base decision on consistency from the outside.

Honeycomb blinds are great for a bathroom. And as most on Houzz know, they can be washed when they get dirty. Clearly, they are a great choice for damp areas!

Here are our EcoSmart Roller Shades in a bathroom. Our fabric is super durable and washable!
