Duck egg blue is not only one this seasons in-vogue colours to use in your interiors, it is a colour which has a classical timelessness which coordinates beautifully with a wide palette of other natural colours.
Pretty pastels are a great way to bring a subtle touch of warmth to a room without being overpowering. A mixture of duck egg blue teamed with pastel shades of rose pinks and sage greens are ideal colour combinations to use if you want to achieve a sense of harmony and tranquillity to a room. As these are pale shades they are the ideal solution of creating the illusion of more space in smaller rooms or in rooms which have limited natural light.
Trendy interior designs have coordinated chocolate tones with duck egg blue and ivory tones to inject colour into window dressings and soft furnishings. The latest trends of having a neutral shade for the main body of a curtain with stripes of different complimentary colours offer a look which is chic and elegant, especially when the curtains are full length and just skim the floor.
Designs are also integrating the practicality of using curtain headings which are completely hassle free and yet provide stunning looks to windows. Tab tops and eyelet headings can quite literally be brought home unwrapped and hung within a matter of minutes, which meets the needs of today's consumers who want instant stylish looks with the minimum amount of fuss.
Modern homes can use stylish metal curtain poles, which are available in a wide variety of colours and textures. This season gun metal greys and polished silver are extremely popular and are the perfect choice if you use eyelet style curtains as the eyelets are predominately silver tones rather than bronze or gold.
Another great advantage of using poles rather than the more traditional style of curtains tracks is the ability to add some wonderful end finials which coordinate with the other furnishings in your rooms. The shepherd's crook style remain popular, however beautiful glass finials which have a swirl or bubbles of coloured glass within them are truly striking and offer to enhance your window treatments quite effortlessly.
Whatever the colour scheme of your room there are wide varieties of different styles of ready made curtains to suit. Of course, if you prefer there are vast ranges of curtain fabrics available for you to make your own curtains, blinds and soft furnishings.
When choosing ready made curtains it is imperative to get the right size! Measuring guides are available from online curtain retailers which provide advice and guidance on how to measure your window dimensions correctly. These retailers are also able to provide you with free samples of fabrics to ensure the colour and quality of the fabrics meet your requirements.
Opt for curtains which have a neutral colour with trendy stripes of different widths across the top third, as this will offer you versatility with the type of furnishings and remain in style should you decide to re-decorate the room. Select Harvard curtains with their coordinated plain tie backs and matching cushions which bring a contemporary yet practicality to your home. |
