Choosing The Right Draperies: We Guide You All The Way
There are choices available when you order custom-made drapery panels and curtains for your home. There is a distinct process that our experienced designers go through with you in a personal in-home consultation to convey the exact feeling you want.
Panel Texture
The first step towards the perfect window treatments in your home is to decide the texture of the fabric that matches the mood of your room. For formal spaces, such as a formal dining room or living room you may want to choose a heavy silk or a velvet fabric. There are also silky rayon blends and cotton sateen For a casual mood, you can choose a billowy linen or crinkly crushed velvet. Cotton and cotton blends work well with any type of decor to bring a neat a crisp feel to a room.
Solid Colors
When choosing a solid color fabric, you need to decide if you want to blend your window coverings with your decor or if you want them to pop. Blending colors works well when you use the same tones in your room but in a few shades darker. You can also just pick up one non-dominant color to use on your draperies. A bold color gives you the wow factor with a pop of color.
Prints and Patterns
If you have patterned furniture, bedding, or an elaborate rug in a room, it is best to stick to a solid color. However, if your room has an all over solid color in it, then patterned curtains are the way to go. For subtle style and energy, you may go for a natural small print such as dots or a paisley. A large graphic print in a color that matches the decor can be really spectacular and eye-catching in any room.
