Design ideas for your Net Curtains
Most rooms will benefit from some sort of curtain design at the windows to provide softness and decoration. If you're looking for a simpler modern style then you may decide to leave your window as it is, but even then the window may be enhanced by a Voile , voile panels or net curtains.
What sort of finish do you want?
Simple or elaborate? Note that modern designs and finishes tend to be simple (for example, a slotted top fairly plain voile or net), while traditional jacquards give a more elaborate look. (Remember to choose a design which is keeping with your room style). So if you have a Victorian house, then you'll be safe if you base your window designs on Victorian ideas. Traditional heavy jacquard nets with an allover floral design could be used to bring that victorian feel back to a room.
If your room is contemporary (such as minimalist) then a plain track can be used, or a metal pole (brushed steel or aluminum is common) with matching finials .Use a sheer light weight lead based plain voile with a three inch heading tape to give a simple yet effective look.
Where on earth do we begin?
How does one get inspired when it comes to choosing the right curtains for the right window? We at www.avisnetcurtains.com know only too well how difficult it is to get started! The most common question customers have is "Where do I begin ?" .With so many different options and curtain ideas to choose from, you're bound to get a bit confused at first glance. Perhaps the biggest source of frustration comes from the huge number of different net curtains, voile curtains ready-made curtains and made to measure curtains, another factor being cost, curtains in particular can become exceedingly expensive depending on the material you choose and on the size of the windows you're looking to cover. Making the wrong choice means that you will be forced to look at something less than desirable, perhaps for years to come, and since curtains cost so much, fixing your mistakes will be very costly.
As a retailer of nets,voiles,ready-made and made to measure curtains you might think that my initial thought would be "Well start with the curtains and the rest will follow" however over many years the majority of customers when re-decorating have already painted , wallpapered ,laid carpets or flooring and have already bought the sofa.
So I guess one of the hardest choices is going to be "What curtains?" . The advise I would always give is try not to let the component parts of the room compete with each other!
If simply decorated with blank canvas colours i.e. creams, magnolias or light variations then one can definitley be bold with curtain choice. Ask your retailer for samples and live with them for a couple of days. If going for bolder colours think about ordering some cushions for your sofa in the same fabric to contrast . Never try to overpower! Take a look at our readymade and customised curtains on the front page of www.avisnetcurtains.com .
Customers fall into many categories but primarily two stand out those who dip their toes and say yes lets go BOLD lets give it a go everything else is fairly plain so lets splash some colour the vast majority go the other way LETS PLAY IT SAFE! not wanting to experiment as this could be too costly.
My advise would be try to push past your fears and go as far as you can without loosing any sleep over it. Take your time play around with colour see and feel what suits you.
Just remember the whole experience is a process and wether you run or walk you will get there in the end.
