Curtain Up!
The windows of a house definitely would not be eye catching if not for the curtains. The curtains serve a lot of purpose besides being an eye catching decor. It is primarily used for privacy purposes or lighting modulation in an area adjacent to it. From these rest the careful selection of the type of curtains to be used. And just like clothes, it is all about the tone, texture and details of the curtain that will make it certified stunner.
For privacy purposes, curtains with darker colors and thicker textiles are definitely to be used. These types of curtains are very ideal for the bedrooms of the house. But sometimes, darker textiles are just put over glass curtains in case more light will be needed. This is the factor wherein the tones of the curtain are important. Mix and match the tones to meet the lighting and/or privacy needed. But make sure that the colors selected also complement the wall and furnishings colors.
The last two factors are details and texture which are both for the decorative purpose of the curtain. Update the trimmings, rods, key tassels and tie backs of your draperies. New tiebacks available such as the braided silks, add both more detail and texture to your curtain. Try to change these details of your curtains every time the season changes and/or when throwing a party at your place.
