Which bedroom window coverings reduce noise the best? 3 ways to hush the outside world

Bright bedroom with large wooden framed bed, dressed with white sheets and playful cushion covers, framed by white venetian blinds.

This is a problem that many of us have encountered at some stage in our home lives, but thankfully, there appear to be some solutions worth trying.
