Windows play a big role in streamlining the décor of any room. For this to happen though, you must chose your draperies carefully as you want drapes that add to the décor style, not those that dilute it. Three main aspects come into play here: the functionality of your windows, the window layout and the type of draperies. Once you understand the functionality of your windows, it becomes easy to pinpoint the perfect drapes to complement this function. In the nursery or bedroom where using sheer curtains would be a distraction when trying to sleep, blackout drapes are the more sensible choice. Likewise, if you need an airy and bright look in the kitchen, go for sheers or other light coloured drapes. Thermal drapes are the ideal choice when you want to keep out the air and preserve heat during the colder months.
The design and layout of the window also influences how you use drapes. Is the window plain or is it framed? If there is any kind of trim around the window, you’ll need to factor this in when taking measurements for the drapes. Failure to do so will result in draperies that are either too short or too narrow to close fully. Ensure that you get the size right by measuring both the width and height of the window when taking your curtain measurements. Lastly, choose the fabric of your draperies well. There are heavy fabrics that are perfect for blocking out light, air and the breeze, and light fabrics that let in more light and air.
