Choose the Right Curtain Fabric
Although curtains are made from different
fabrics, some are only suited to certain living
rooms. For example, heavy fabrics help to
insulate a living room and are suitable for
cooler climates in Canada. 

• ?Silk
• ?Cotton
• ?Sheers 
• ?Velvet
• ?Linen 

Note This material is lightweight and soft and
is mostly used in living rooms with simple decor.

Pick the Appropriate Curtain Style
Window curtains come in a wide range of styles,
so you should think about what exactly suits the
decor of your room and window. For example, while
the double panels help create symmetry, the
smaller ones are ideal for smaller rooms. Panels
with a fabric valence are perfect for traditional
decor.   You should also consider the heading
type most suitable for your living room curtains.
French pleats, pole pockets, and pencil pleats
are some of the most common heading options.

Choose the Right Colours and Patterns

• It is important to consider what type of pattern
  or colour you want for your window curtains, at
  least as much as when choosing a sofa or chair.
• Consider the pattern of the fabric as well as the
  colour of the wall
• The next step is to blend or match your curtains
  with these key factors.
• Before buying curtains, tape a fabric swatch on
  the particular wall where you want to install
  them to see if they are suitable.

Consider the Curtains Size

• When it comes to living room curtains, size is an
  important factor. They must be at least twice the
  width of the window, even though you keep them
  open during the day.
• They should also be long. If you want to create
  an elegant look and feel, these curtains should
  puddle on the ground. For a clean, modern look,
  they should just skim the floor.

Determine How You Want to Install the Curtains
There are two ways of hanging curtains in your
living room
