Nothing gives your living room a more sensual and luxurious look than high quality curtains. Functional yet decorative, the right kind of curtains can transform any room almost instantly. Here are some tips to keep in mind when choosing curtains to glam up your living rooms. Style and Colour Factor Are you going for a classic look or a breezy one? Starting off with a key style helps to narrow down your curtain fabric choices which play an important role in creating the ambience you desire. It's a good idea to create a moodboard, pairing your chosen colour palettes with fabric samples. For ideas, you can browse through magazines or drop by a curtains showroom like Curtains Place to check out the window treatments on display.

Think about the level privacy that you desire - for more private spaces, heavier fabrics are suitable. If you want to bring in light or have a hint of the views outside, opt for sheer curtains that are made from lightweight materials. Heavier fabrics offer a blackout effect, and create a more formal, sophisticated ambience, while lighter materials give off a casual and airy vibe. Most importantly, always go for high quality curtain fabrics so they are longer lasting and give you a more elegant look. For instance, Curtains Place provide a wide variety of both and light and heavy curtains that are made from a variety of eye-catching, quality fabrics.
