Here is Some Inspiration for New Curtains and Drapes
The dawn of a new year presents a great opportunity to try new things in your home, including with its window treatments. Consider finding your custom curtains online to make finding the right new fit a breeze. Keep reading for some ideas to consider in 2021.
Experiment with Color
Because curtains are now available in a huge spectrum of colors, 2021 can be a great time to experiment with color. For example, you might have bright living room window curtains to complement a sunny area of your home, while darker window treatments in your bedroom may create a relaxing mood. Additionally, different colors can let you highlight specific items in a room, or even provide a striking contrast or complement with the walls. If you’re worried about going overboard with color, keep in mind that some curtain sellers provide free color swatches to help you find the right match.
Combine Window Treatment Types
Some rooms lend themselves well to multiple types of window treatments, so don’t be afraid to experiment with combinations! For example, many combine styles for their living room curtains in San Francisco when they are street level. Curtains can be combined with retractable shades to create two layers of privacy when desired but let in sunlight when the weather is nice.
Use Drapes
Drapes are the heavy-duty cousin of curtains. They are thicker and therefore have more light-blocking abilities. Many people hang blackout drapes in their bedroom, for instance, to keep the room dark and easier to sleep in. The right drapes can also have noise-blocking properties, as well, so consider using drapes in a part of your home where noise and light tend to be a nuisance.
Consider Roman Shades
If you’d like a streamlined, sophisticated look in a given room, consider installing Roman shades. This type of window treatment is distinct because when the shades are drawn up, they neatly stack, forming folds in a horizontal pattern. Architectural Digest’s Tim McKeough described Roman shades as both “practical” and space-saving, adding to their appeal.
