When to use custom drapes
If you want to tailor your window fashions to a specific design scheme or use them to cover a uniquely shaped window, then choosing custom drapery is a no-brainer. This option allows you to think outside of the box in terms of design and create an original ambiance.
"Most of us have a wide variety of window shapes, styles and sizes to address when decorating our own homes," states Morgan Hill Times' writer Pamela Boyd when discussing the importance of custom drapery. "We're always looking for fresh ideas."
If you're looking for custom window drapes here are some helpful guidelines to consider:
- Fashion: Aside from serving essential purposes, curtains and drapes are also fashionable home décor items. It is important to know how fancy you would like your room to be before selecting custom fabrics. Areas such as the living and dining rooms allow you to be more elegant with heavier materials. For casual rooms you spend a lot of time in, such as your TV den, think about lighter weight options.
- Focus: Do you have grand windows that are the focal point of your room? If so, take your window styling up a notch to truly put these windows on display.
- Function: Before selecting window coverings, know what purpose you'd like your custom curtains and drapes to serve. Are you buying drapery for decorative purposes, or do you also want something practical that can help cut heating costs and insulate your home?
