How to dress up your living room windows

While bare windows are simple and classy, it isn’t always the best choice, especially if you live in a busy neighborhood. After all, we all need our privacy.

Spruce up your living room with fabric curtains. You can use fabric of different textures, colors and prints for this purpose. Pleated curtains add softness to a room. You can choose from curtains made from linen, velvet, silk, cotton or lace, to name a few. Make sure they go with your living room colors.

Use a modern rail or pole for hanging your curtain. This can be made out of metal or wood. This will ensure that you are able to open and close your curtains easily. The current trend is to use two curtain rails, as this will allow you to layer your drapes for a softer look to your room. This ensures that you also have some privacy, as you can pull back the thicker top curtain, leaving the sheer back curtain closed.

If you wish to go for something more modern, you could choose to go for blinds instead of curtains. From plastic blinds, to fabric and bamboo blinds, you have a plethora of options to choose from. This allows for easy control. The blinds can either be plain or printed, according to the furnishings in the rest of the room.
