The
eyes of our houses - windows, can become more beautiful and more stylish with a
little bit of help from curtains. And indeed, every time you step into the
room, the first things you notice are colors dominated in it, and how much
light enters the room. Since the house without windows is a house without life,
it is important to decorate them accordingly and not comprehended it.
ผ้าม่านราคาถูก, we
think of everything ranging from color to style, decor and accessories when
dreaming up our image of a ‘perfect home’. Yet we often tend to ignore some of
the little things that ultimately make the biggest difference. Window curtains
definitely fall into this category and do not generally get the attention that
they deserve. A part of it lies in the fact that many homeowners are turning to
other windows coverings to get the job done. Then there is the factor of
‘budget limitations’, which means it is often stuff like gorgeous window
curtains or exquisite carpets that take the fall first!
But
a curtain can go a long way in elevating the aesthetics and ergonomics of a
room and is far more cost-effective than you think. And they definitely should
not be an afterthought or an impulsive buy in the overall plan of things.
Choosing the wrong curtains can damage the appeal of your living room space or
bedroom and would leave it a duller, more dreary space. To help you avoid this
conundrum, here are a few pointers to help you get the basics of curtain
shopping spot on
An
Extension of the Room
The
curtains you choose for your windows must seem like a natural extension of the
room. Sounds pretty basic, does it not? But in an attempt to cut down on
‘drapery expenditure’, many homeowners opt for the same curtains in every room.
This might work in a few select homes, but it fails in more contemporary
residences where each room has a specific theme, style and aura of its own. If
it is indeed the costs involved that are stopping you from adding curtains to
the windows of your home, start slowly with just the living room. There is no
hard and fast rule that all the rooms must have window curtains at the same
instant!
Colors
and Contrast
Obviously,
when we say ‘an extension of the room’, we do not mean curtains that have the
very same color as the walls of the area. Feel absolve to use drapes in colors
that will vary from the ones already existing in the area to provide it a
different and unique vibe. This is effective in styles that range between
eclectic and Mediterranean to classic and even modern. Another popular method
is to have a tone-on-tone method of decorating, gives the area a monolithic yet
interesting look. If you need a room filled with just natural hues, this is
definitely a fantastic choice.
Privacy
and Views
Picking
window treatments is not merely about form and beauty alone. Actually, the
primary reason for drapes is to stay away any prying eye while providing a
choice to change between personal privacy and unabated views easily. It really
is here that the drape fabric and weave become an important factor, as some
offer much more personal privacy than others. While sheer drapes appear and
feel great and do bring with them visible lightness, they execute a poor job in
this respect. Add yet another coating of solid curtains along with the sheers
to give yourself a wider range of options.
Ventilation
and Insulation
Still
reeling from the chill of winter outside? Thermal curtains are a great way of
keeping out this cold for good and increasing the energy efficiency of your
home’s heating system in the winter months. Adding curtains to the windows (and
even doors) gives you an additional layer of insulation and can even bring down
your power bills in the long run. Of course, pretty soon the chill outside will
disappear and you will be longing to bring the exuberance of spring and warmth
of summer indoors. And all you need to do then is draw those curtains back and
take in the sights and sounds outside!
While
we warned you against the use of sheer curtains if privacy is your basic goal,
they are great for creating breezy, cheerful spaces that have wonderful natural
ventilation. Take into account how adding window curtains affects the flow of
natural light in your home and pick a fabric accordingly. Adding heavy drapes
that completely block out light in an already dark, cluttered home can be
counter-productive and unappealing.
Pattern
with Texture
Are
you trying to add some vivacious pattern that will breathe life into your
living room? Maybe your bedroom needs an additional plush texture that will add
elegance and a hint of romance to the space? Consider these questions before
you go shopping for a window curtain. Curtains are an easy way to introduce a
fun geometric pattern or a velvety new texture to the room without making major
overhauls. With bold, mid-century prints and retro motifs making a comeback
recently, maybe your window curtains are the easiest way to keep the interior
fresh and on trend!
