Upgrade your space with colorful curtains and designer-look drapes
One of the easiest, most-overlooked ways to refresh the look of your room: switch out your old window treatments for colorful curtains or stylish new drapes! Explore our wide selection of panels and valances, in an array of styles, colors, fabrics and sizes to complement any décor.
Of course, it’s essential to measure your windows before you purchase. Rule of thumb: to make your space look bigger and more luxurious, designers suggest hanging drapes well above the top of window frame and extending your curtain rod several inches on each side. As far as curtain length goes, ideally, panels should “puddle” slightly or just about touch the floor.
Beyond style, think about what you want your curtains to accomplish. For example, to maximize natural daylight, choose sheer, airy panels. On the flip side, to keep your heating and cooling bills down, consider thermal window treatments that keep room air in and outdoor temps out. And don’t be afraid to layer your curtains—say, pairing panels with a matching valance and a coordinating sheer underneath. It provides insulation, while lending a designer look.
