Choosing the right curtains for the rooms in your home
Curtains make a room whole and change the atmosphere completely. Apart from providing privacy from prying eyes of the outside world and adding warmth, they contribute greatly to shaping the décor of the room. With many, different materials and patterns to choose from, we tend to get a bit confused when choosing the appropriate curtains for each room of the house. Finding the right curtains is about to get much easier with this simple guide to ensure you decorate your home fabulously.
Patterns: Patterns go best in bedrooms and it is important that you use coordinating patterns so that you don’t overwhelm the room with a riot of colours. Bedrooms are private and you can decorate it how you wish since it’s where you spend most of your time; so patterned particles too. So make sure you wash them with soapy water at least once or twice a week.
Use the right cleaning supplies:
The key is to capture dust and not spread it around which is what dry rags will do. Damp rags that attract and hold dust work better.
Carpets are a huge attractor of dust, since all its fibers absorb dust like a giant sponge and sends it airborne every time you take a step. Sweeping or vacuuming it daily is crucial to keeping your home dust free, apart from that, giving your carpet a beating every week is very important too. Drape them over a fence or clothesline and beat them with a broom.
Give your carpets a beating:
curtains are the best choice.
Pencil pleats: These are narrow, single pleats formed in neat folds. They have an attractive and uniform edge that goes well in living rooms or home offices because they are not too eye catching yet very sophisticated.
Sheer curtains: Sheer curtains are the right choice for the kitchen seeing that it is a room that needs as much light as possible. It is important to make sure that they are short too.
French pleats: These curtains are pricier than other options but they’re worth the extra money. They give a more professional ad tailored look that goes well with an elegant living room or dining room décor.
