The curtain is not just a piece of cloth that is used to block the light and curious eyes out and keep privacy at night. Rather, Curtains become an essential item of interior design, as they play their part in the overall aesthetics of a certain room, and add charm to the structure of your home in general. 

Sometimes, a wrong choice of curtains may leave an extremely bad effect and give negative energy to the whole ambiance of your home.

 DDW knows how overwhelming it could be to pick the right curtains, that suit your home style and fit the rest of your interior items. 

Color, fabric, length, and lining all need to be evaluated when selecting the best curtains for a room.

To make things easier, we’ve made a list of 4 things you should put in mind when picking your curtains…. 

  • Pick out the Right Fabric 
  • Be careful while choosing colors
  • Select the ideal length
  • Consider Prints and Pattern

Let’s talk about them more….

-Pick the Right Fabric 

The material has a key role in the appearance of the curtains and consequently affects the whole ambiance of the room.

 plenty of options are available to choose from, from sheer to light cotton, to heavy velvet.

 but two factors should be considered while picking the fabrics:

  • The amount of natural light you want to bring into the room 
  • The style of your room. Heavier fabrics, for example, fit more conventional rooms, while sheer fabrics work best for more modern rooms.
  • Be Careful While Choosing Colors

The choice of color can energize your home style or make it dull and dark. So the color you choose for your curtain should harmonize with the rest of the furnishings. For a visually appealing look, you should choose colors that match the tone of the walls, or if you want the colors of your curtains to pop up, pick a hue that contrasts with the furniture and walls.

  • Select The Ideal Length

Curtains that fall exactly to the floor level are a trend these days. A few inches longer can also give a more sophisticated look. while, if you have kids you better choose  curtains that are a couple of inches above the floor. You can give your room a classic touch by having the curtains end at the sill of the window. I think this choice will be perfect for your living room and kitchen. 

  • Consider  Prints and Patterns

Patterned curtains fit solid-color furniture well. If a room in your house lacks a proper color pattern and it is all of the same hues, patterned curtains would be an ideal choice.

Pick tiny, neutral prints that add a touch of fun to your homes, such as paisley or dots. Leaf-printed, floral, rosy and translucent curtains may be a good choice.

 You can also go for blackout curtains if you want to block light from entering your room or reduce unwanted street noises.
