Curtains can transform a room on multiple levels, whether adding a pop of color, softening the ambiance of a room, or letting just the right amount of light into a space. With the right drapes, you can create the ambiance of your space no matter what you want, luxury, comfort, or a combination of the two.
But does the actual material used to build the curtain make a difference? yes! The materials you choose for your project are just as important as the color, design, and overall look. When looking for a material that is elegant, easy-care, and comfortable, linen curtain fabrics meet and often exceed expectations.
Buying any type of decor or furniture is an investment, and consumers want their investment to last. After all, the goal of those looking to give their space a new look is to want the transformation to be long-term. Linen has a long-lasting texture because it is made of strong natural flax fibers.
In fact, linen is durable and stays comfortable when compared to other curtain fabrics or upholstery fabrics. As linen ages, the material actually gets softer, even after repeated cleanings. It also continues to repel moisture, absorbing up to 20% of moisture without even feeling wet. Unlike linen, other fabrics show wear and tear after repeated use and cleaning.c
