how to dress up plain curtains.

A common concern among homeowners is that plain curtains won’t hold up against the rest of their decor. While there’s certainly nothing bland about our collection, you’ve still got plenty of options when it comes to adding a little pizzazz and dressing up your window dressings even more.

Plain curtains might be the name of our collection, but that doesn’t mean for a second that they’re one-dimensional. Jazzing up plain curtains can be as simple as opting for a statement fabric, such as our twill woven and mélange effect designs. It can also be as simple as choosing an eye-catching colour – with bright hues of hot pink, sunshine yellow and zesty orange guaranteed to imbue any space with a blazing burst of energy.

If you’re dead set on a neutral or muted hue for your plain curtains, there’s still tons of space for spicing things up. Pairing neutral drapes with a lighter shade of neutral wallpaper is a tried and tested method of getting plain curtains to pop. Having wallpaper a few shades lighter than your curtains will create a striking contrast, giving your curtains the eye-catching illusion of bouncing off the wall.

If you’re going with white curtains, for example, factor in some matching cushions and a snow-white throw to strengthen the colour scheme and make the whole look work in harmony. Ensuring your plain curtains feel like a seamless part of your interior is key to making the whole thing work, so pay attention to how you go about coordinating them. If all else fails, some braids, home-sewn trims or snazzy tiebacks are always a solid choice, and will have your plain curtains looking like a showstopping focal point in no time.
