  When deciding on a fabric for curtains, you need to consider a lot. Choosing the right weight, texture, shading or exposure quality, and fabric durability is just the beginning. If you spend some time thinking about your options now, when you need to look at the dozens of fabrics in the store, you will have a better idea of ​​which is best for your specific needs.

  Durability: Over time, sunlight can damage all fabrics, but silk is particularly susceptible to sunlight. Some of the window fabrics that are least tanned are calico, brocade and cotton canvas. cut pile fabric will also be damaged by the sun, but it is still very suitable for families who want good shading effect.

  
  Thread count: Generally speaking, the thread count of decorative fabrics is higher than that of clothing fabrics, so the service life of decorative fabrics is longer. Some of these fabrics need to be dry cleaned; check the fabric bolt label or cylinder label.

  Weaving: Plain weave, twill weave, satin weave or brocade weave are common weaves for decorative fabrics. Most calicos are plain or twill weave fabrics. For example, satin weave is used to form stripes in certain fabrics, while brocade weave is a single-color, patterned weave.

  Width: Fabrics usually have two basic widths: 42 to 45 inches and 54 to 60 inches. Always check the fabric bolt label or label to determine its width. Compared with fabrics used in clothing, home furnishing fabrics have a wider width. You can also find some decorative fabrics that are 72 to 75 inches wide, 90 inches wide, and even some 105 or 110 inches or wider.

  Still not sure what fabric to choose? The following are some familiar curtain situations and suggestions for choosing suitable fabrics:

  Wide and long windows that require a lot of coverage: a fabric with a certain weight will meet your covering needs. Use heavier fabrics to make simple floor-to-ceiling curtains, such as velvet, velveteen, corduroy, or wool-blend fabrics that restrict light. Another way is to spread cotton ducks on your curtains.

  A row of wide and long windows that don’t need much coverage: the swag and waterfalls (made of a non-transparent fabric with good drape, such as silk or blended charmieus) surrounding the top and sides of a row of windows A perfect treatment, providing some dress up without too much coverage. If you want to use transparent fabrics to diffuse the light, choose panels made of tulle, batik, organza, chiffon or even lace.

  A small room with ventilation windows: Consider adding a curtain that completely covers the window. Measure your curtains so that they extend far beyond the decorative lines of the window. Then choose a heavier fabric, such as brocade, whose color matches (or nearly matches) the paint color of the room. Curtains help block cold air. Matching the fabric with the walls of the room can create the illusion of an enlarged room with a complete wall space.

  Rooms with low ceilings: measure the curtains so that they extend from the floor to the ceiling, and match their color to the color of the wall. Make sure to install the curtain rod almost flush with the ceiling. If you want light to come in, choose a very light but refreshing fabric, such as voile. If you like coverage, choose tightly woven cotton. Using fabrics with vertical stripes is another great way to create a sense of length and height in a room with low ceilings.

  Small windows, the only light source for small kitchens: If you have a small kitchen with small windows, you want to maximize the windows as much as possible. Consider adding a simple drapery, or if you have a ceiling height, add an arched drapery to the mid-weight fabric of your choice. For privacy at night, you can add a simple roller blind, which is installed under the curtain during the day.

  The old windows in the formal dining room double as a study room: The balloon curtains look great on the dining room gauze. This treatment provides plenty of light for dining, work or study, and at the same time adds a sense of design. When making balloon curtains (such as calico or taffeta), choose a fabric that is tightly woven or even a little stiff so that they can maintain their shape.

  Bathroom windows that need privacy but still need natural light: try heavier voile or pleated yarn, they can provide a little coverage, but also need light. When considering wrinkles, please test the sample before pretreatment; some wrinkles lose their texture during washing.
