Curtains or Draperies take on many functions. They are used for decorative purposes or for privacy and energy control. As a decorative feature they are hung on the sides of the window to provide a softening of the hard lines with decorative rods and finials. Trim or contrast fabric is sometimes used to add more depth and detail.

Alternatively, curtains and draperies are a great way to decrease heat loss through your windows especially during the colder months of the year. Many window treatments can improve energy efficiency with a variety of lining options while remaining decorative and stylish.
