Curtains

Window treatments can dramatically affect the look and feel of a space. They can be as bold or as understated as you'd like. Ultimately, most people are looking for curtains to provide more privacy and the ability to control the amount of light that comes into a space; other considerations include the control of temperature and sound. There are several factors to consider when purchasing curtains including the type of curtain and fabric and the length and width of the curtain panel.

There are several types of curtains and they are typically defined by their heading. Dont be put off by all the technical terms though as my job is to guide you through to making the right choice for the look you are trying to create. Whether you want formal Swags and Tails to Urban Chic on the whole, if you can think it I can make it!

Despite the heading, the fabric of the curtain can dramatically affect the look. For example, a polyester curtain panel that drops to the sill has a much different feel than a cotton ceiling-to-floor length curtain panel. When looking at fabrics, you want to pay attention to care. Usually a polyester curtain is machine-washable and completely practical for a child’s bedroom, while a cotton curtain is probably dry-clean only, which is perfectly fine for a living or dining space.
