Color ideas for custom curtains and drapes

Here we will talk about choosing the right colors for your curtains so that every room in your home has a story to tell of its own.

Coordination is important in any home and this holds true for curtains as well. You may buy the most excellent looking luxury drapes or curtains but if they don’t complement the rest of a room then the money spent is not worth anything. This is one premise you should consider as base and then go out searching for luxury custom curtains and drapes within your budget.

For color coordination consider the colors of the walls. The walls may be of light color or of dark color and this should decide the color of your custom curtains and drapes.

If the color on the walls is dark or strong you can tone down the look of the room by using neutral colored luxury drapes. White almost always works well with dark walls. You can also use other neutral colors like oyster, ivory and buttercream. If you don’t want solid colors and instead are more interested in patterns then using the wall color along with the neutral color in a pattern should look nice.

If you have a light color on the walls then repeating the color in your luxury drapes is a good idea. White curtains for white walls do look great. You can use a color that is two tones lighter or darker in shade than the wall color and this will also look fantastic in the room. There is also the option of using complementary colors but for this you need to do some research. You can find the list of complementary colors online and this will help you choose the right color for your curtains.

Many people prefer monochromatic colored curtains for that classic look. Monochromatic color on custom curtains and drapes may be exactly similar to the wall color or a couple of shades darker or lighter than the wall color. One may even choose colors that belong to the same color family. Apricot and burnt orange, for example, belong to the same color family.

Patterns are also highly popular and patterned curtains and drapes also need to be considered keeping coordination in mind. Usually patterns where one color is similar to the wall color and the others colors in contrasting shades never go wrong.

Brighter colors in the living room and the children’s room and darker colors in the bedrooms are always good to choose.

When you choose to buy custom curtains and drapes you can ask for someone to guide you. Luxury drapes will cost you slightly more than standard curtains and color is one thing that you don’t want to go wrong with them.
