If you’re wondering about popular trends for your window treatments, this post is for you. In the first part of this two-part series, we’ll review some treatment styles which are currently trending.

Not very long ago, light and neutral solid colour window treatments were in fashion. Their versatility and simple design made them stylish additions to any room. Though solid neutral shades have been popular for quite some time, graphic and bold patterns are making an entrance with full force. Abstract and geometric patterns are quickly coming into high demand, most of which include dark and bold designs typically complemented by bright colours making various designs pop out. These innovative styles, when installed in your home, such as in your kitchen or living room, attract attention. They provide a topic of conversation as your family and friends spend time admiring your contemporary sense of style.
Bold patterns with a modern look won’t necessarily suit the decor of every home or every homeowner. However, if you’re someone who likes the thought of installing modern curtains in your home, you’ll probably prefer the simplicity of jewel tones for the curtains. Intense colours like turquoise, ruby, emerald and amethyst are quickly becoming trends in the interior designing world.
If you’re someone who loves window treatments which can add a luxurious feel to your room, you may consider using velvet curtains. However, if decide to change them in a few years time, now is probably the best time for you to make the switch. Due to their natural ability to block light, soft texture and variety of colours, velvet curtains are becoming one of the most popular window treatment trends this year. They have the ability to mix in with any kind of decor. In addition to being stylish, they’re also thermal insulated and prevents the hot summer sun from entering the indoors, keeping it cool.
If you’re not ready to give up the solid neutral coloured window treatments, there are other more creative ways for you to inject some style and colour into them. You can add various decorative trims to your curtains. All you’ll have to do is visit any local fabric store or an interior designer to make your window treatments look extraordinary. An easy way of incorporating elegance into the room is to use trims with reflective embellishment or colourful jewels. Using features like tassels, pom-poms and buttons can add a unique attribute creating a more fun and creative style.
