Mix and match the curtain rods, after all, small changes can make a big difference in the look and feel of a space. If you like to synchronize your curtains with the rods, then check for metallic ones, which come with a different colour coating. But, if contrasting looks appealing to you, then wooden rods can be ideal. A wood polish rod has its own appeal and can enhance the look of your curtain.

For some curtains, explore the traditional fabric made tieback and go for a metallic holder for some others. It will beautifully grace your home and exhibit your mind and preferences. A tieback made of fabric infuses colour and texture to a room, so a simple curtain can be adorned with it. But, if the curtain is already heavy, then highlight it using a holdback.

5. The Window Coverings: Along with the bedding and cushions, you can bring neutrals to play in the window coverings, as well. If the wall paint is in soft hues, then go for dark colour curtains and hone a contemporary room. But, to add a traditional flavour go for non-patterned fabrics.
