Decorating Tip: Drama with Drapery

Your window coverings are often the finishing touch that defines the look of a room. Weather you prefer long, puddle panels, swept back swoops, swags, shutters, blinds or even just a simple shade, your windows should reflect the style of the room. One easy and relatively inexpensive way to dress up your drapery is through your choice of hardware.


A huge variety of decorative curtain rods are available in many different stores. I personally like the look of metal rings. I enjoy the Victorian feel of them. It’s easy to find something that you like. The best part is, with so many options, you’re sure to find a color and style of hardware that will fit your decor. If you like your existing drapes, but want to add a bit of drama, switch out the curtain rod to one with an ornamental finial or design. Or, add some tie-backs or other accessories. It’s an easy, affordable way to make a big difference in a room without making a big effort.
