"Living room curtains and area rugs are two integral pieces of decor that make a room feel complete. However, they usually arrive at very different stages of the decorating process: Interiors experts typically recommend starting with a floor covering and finishing with the window treatments. That way, you're literally outfitting the room from the ground up. With that in mind, finding a rug for an empty room is easy. Drapery, on the other hand, presents more of a challenge."
"From luxurious Marie Antoinette-inspired velvet blackout curtains to minimalist pinstriped Belgian linen sheer curtains, the options are endless. Just be sure to measure out the correct dimensions before adding to cart, or risk being stuck with too short curtain capris or overly long drapes that will feel like a drag on your space. And when you're ready to hang your newly purchased curtains, grab your toolbox and consult our step-by-step guide to make sure everything goes smoothly."
Living room curtains and area rugs together complete a room's decor. Start decorating with a floor covering and finish with window treatments to outfit the room from the ground up. Rugs are simpler to choose for empty rooms, while drapery requires careful consideration to tie the space together. Curtain styles range from velvet blackout to pinstriped Belgian linen sheers. Measure dimensions carefully to avoid curtains that are too short or overly long. Blackout curtains rely on a tightly woven dark middle lining and can be layered with sheers, while heavier fabrics also block light. Prepare tools and follow a step-by-step hanging guide when installing curtains.
