Your choice of curtain fabric is important
You need new curtains for your house and you go out looking at the ready made ones that are available. They are all the wrong size, gaudy and the quality is just not what you want. There is only one choice – find some fabric you like and have them made to measure.
Heavy weight or light weight?
Curtain fabric not only comes in various colours and designs but also in various weights. The material that you need for a kitchen window is entirely different to that which you require for a set of French doors. Kitchen windows require a light fabric that will match the décor of the kitchen and will be washable, while the fabric used for curtains that are hung in front of patio will need to be quite heavy and lined so that it hangs properly. The weight of a curtain fabric is not just about where you will use it, but also about the size of the windows they are for, as if the drop is quite long the curtains either need to be of a heavy fabric or a weight will need to be placed in the hem to ensure that they hang correctly.
Bathrooms
You may wish to hang curtains in your bathroom, and these will need to be of a material that will not be affected by steam and water, as there is a possibility that fungus may grow on them. They should be able to be washed on a regular basis or wiped clean.
Bedrooms
Curtain fabric for bedrooms is important as the weight of them is vital to a good night’s sleep. Curtains that are too light in weight will allow light through and your night’s sleep will be disturbed. You may of course also have the curtains lined or maybe have blackout cloth added, but maybe a heavy weight fabric would be better.
Conservatories
Conservatories may have blinds on many occasions, but as conservatories take on the role of living and dining areas, curtains are now being called for. The choice of fabric here is very important as they will have string exposure to the sun and thus they should be a fabric that will not fade.
Curtain fabric will come in many shades, styles, patterns and weights so you can guarantee there will be something that will suit your choice.
