Cotton Draperies and Curtains
Cotton is a fabric that easily dries and breathes well to ventilate your rooms even when the curtains are drawn closed over the windows. Pure cotton is a preferred fabric for
curtains and drapes.
Types of Cotton Draperies and Curtains
*
Sash curtains are modern unlined curtains that are designed to filter light.
*
Sheer or privacy curtains will block the view of the inside but will make the outer side completely visible. They are thin.
* One
curtain panel each is required on either sides of the window for a complete look.
*
Draw curtains prevent light from entering and are very thick.
*
Draperies are made from thicker cotton and accent any window.
*
Cafe curtains are kitchen curtains that are suspended from rings.
Factors to Consider
* Check whether you want
black out cotton curtains to prevent any light from entering or a light curtain that allows your room to get some light.
* Show your curtains and drapes as the center of attention in your room.
* Take into account the size of the window.
* Fit your curtains according to the features that the decor requires. For instance, check whether you are making a bold statement or tapering down the atmosphere.
Cotton Drapes and Curtains Tips
* Sunlight can cause fading overtime, and cotton is the most affected. Using
dark cotton curtains will prevent sunlight from entering in and at the same time won't fade the fabric.
* To prevent this to an extent, go for light colors in cotton and hand vacuum the dust out.
* Most cotton curtains are machine washable; however washing at a dry cleaner is advisable for the cotton curtains and drapes to last long.
