What to Think About Before Choosing Curtains

When shopping for curtains, you should consider your desired amount of light control, which is how much natural light you want to allow to filter through to your space. If you want to eliminate natural light, blockout curtains will be the ideal choice. On the other hand, if you're looking for privacy while wanting to enjoy natural light filtering through your curtains, sheer curtains will deliver that for you. Want the option to switch between these two? Consider shopping Spotlight's range of both blockout and sheer curtains and layering these curtains together. You can also enjoy shopping from a range of different curtain header types. This range of curtain styles allows you to elevate your window furnishings with a contemporary elegance, timeless beauty or a modern charm.

Getting the Right Curtains for Every Room

Depending on your room and preferences, there are many types of curtains you can choose from that offer different benefits.

• Best curtains for bedroom: Blockout curtains offer great room darkening benefits for bedrooms. You can also pair with sheer curtains for privacy and a little sun.
• Best curtains for living room: Curtains are perfect for adding a sense of drama to living areas, and they can be dressed up with pelmets, trims, tassels, rods and other accessories.

What Curtain Fabrics Should You Go For?

With so many different types of fabric to choose from, you can make curtains that suit your light control needs and style preferences. To create curtains that help your space feel nice and dark, consider shopping our range of room darkening and blockout curtain fabrics. If instead you want to create your own curtains that allow natural light to brighten your space, consider our selection of sheer curtain fabrics. You can also find all the accessories you need to create your very own DIY curtains, including curtain linings and curtain heading tape. At Spotlight, you can find an exceptional range of curtain fabrics to customise your home!

Should You Get Ready-Made or Made-To-Measure Curtains?

Made-to-measure is a fully comprehensive service that includes in-home measure, consultation, custom sizing and installation, whereas ready-made curtains are off-the-shelf curtains or blinds you can purchase and install yourself. Both are great options for achieving your dream look. If you are confident with measuring and installing your curtains yourself or have existing rods or tracks, ready-made curtains are a budget-friendly choice for quickly updating your home. For new homes or larger projects, M2M services will get the job done without hassle.

How to Measure for Curtains Without the Guesswork

Measuring your windows correctly is very important when shopping for curtains. Start by measuring the width. Base your measurements on the width of your curtain rod or track. To achieve a full look in your curtains, shop for a pair of curtains that, when drawn, are double the width of your window. In terms of height, take your height measurement from where you want your rod to track to sit, rather than from the top of the window architrave and measure all the way down to where you want your curtains to sit near the floor. Generally, you should measure the height to ensure your curtains slightly touch your flooring. If measuring for blockout curtains, it's a good idea to allow additional measurements for a pooling effect to ensure all light is blocked out. Take into consideration where you want your curtains to sit when recording your length measurements. Read our comprehensive window measurement guide to find out everything you need to know about measuring your windows for the perfect curtains.

The Tools and Equipment You'll Need to Hang Your Curtains Right

Our range of ready-made curtains is easy to hang with our incredible selection of curtain rods and tracks. This process depends on the type of curtains you are hanging. To install eyelet, tab top and rod pocket curtains, a curtain rod is threaded through the header. Pencil pleat and pinch pleat curtains can also be installed using a curtain rod by threading the rod through hooks or rings attached to the curtain, however, they are most often installed on a curtain track. Other curtains, such as S-fold curtains, are also installed on curtain tracks. Check out our guide for more information on how to hang curtains. To complete your curtain installation, you can add finishing touches of curtain tiebacks and holdbacks to securely hold your curtains open.
