  1. Buying Curtains in Markham (Avoid These 5 Mistakes)

  2. Curtain showrooms in Markham offer a wide range of window treatments in different colours, materials, sizes, and patterns. Picking the right ones is never easy, especially if you are doing it for the first time. Windows are a design focal point in any room. That’s why you need to carefully consider your curtains, as they should be aesthetically pleasing and functional. You may be planning to shop for the best brands in Markham like Hunter Douglas. But choosing the wrong curtains can ruin the overall look of a room or fail to serve the purpose for which you purchased them. Find out what common mistakes are made by homeowners when selecting curtains.

  3. Common Mistakes Made When Buying Curtains • Failing to Take Proper Measurements • Choosing the Wrong Fabric • Selecting Curtains That Don’t Blend with the Decor • Not Adding a Lining • Not Deciding on Your Budget in Advance

  4. Failing to Take Proper Measurements This is probably the most common mistake homeowners make when buying curtains. Despite measuring the size of their window, they end up picking curtains that are either too big or small. This can overwhelm the space and be noticed by anyone entering the room. So, make sure you take down the correct measurements for your window coverings. Remember that the panels should look ample when you close the curtains. So, be sure to pick curtains whose width is about 2 to 2.5 times more than the width of the window. As for length, the ideal measurement is from the curtain rod to about a quarter-inch above the floor. You can also consider puddling lightweight curtains to give the space an elegant look. However, if you have kids or pets, it’s best to avoid this to prevent accidents.

  5. Choosing the Wrong Fabric Whether you are installing curtains in your bedroom or living room, choosing the right fabric is important. Curtain showrooms in Markham have many attractive curtains. However, it is best to choose ones that require little maintenance, especially if you prefer not spending a lot of time in regularly cleaning them. Fabrics like cotton and polyester are ideal in this case, as they can be easily washed.

  6. Selecting Curtains That Don’t Blend with the Decor Many curtains look great in the showroom but not so much when you get them home. That’s usually because you didn’t consider your decor when buying them. Think about the style of your room. Is it modern or traditional? And what colours predominate? Select your curtains so they blend in with the existing decor.

  7. Not Adding a Lining Many homeowners ignore the importance of curtain linings. Though they are not visible, they come with benefits you cannot neglect. Besides enhancing the look of your curtains, these linings increase their longevity, improve insulation, and provide privacy. So, line your store-bought curtains or make your own lined curtain.

  8. Not Deciding on Your Budget in Advance It is important to set your budget before you go to the curtain showroom. That said, do not compromise the quality of your curtains to fit your budget. Many homeowners are tempted to buy discount curtains without considering their quality. As a result, you may end up purchasing curtains that do not have a uniform length, shrink in the first wash, or whose colours fade when washed. That can mean having to replace your curtains soon after buying them.
