Linen comes from the flax plant and is a winner fabric when it comes to home textiles, especially curtains. Much more durable (compared to cotton), this fabric can last you a lifetime and help make any space feel like home. You have probably heard about the high-quality of Belgian linen, well, our linen does not compromise on quality as well. It is no surprise that we only use natural 100 % linen fabric which feels thick yet airy, provides privacy (depending on the density), and prevents people from the outside seeing directly into the room. Choose from sheer or non-sheer linen curtains depending on the look you are going for and your need for privacy. From bedroom to the kitchen, sheer, sun-soaked linen curtains will bring coziness and a romantic, relaxed vibe while not being high-coverage. Non-sheer curtains provide more privacy, help to make the shadows of the room softer, add a more textured look. You can choose from three different styles: curtains with tab top, tie top or rod pocket.
How to decide on length and width of the curtains?
Although there is no right or wrong on what length is the most flattering, some curtains could make the room look out-dated, small, and overall not a cozy place to be in. If talking about lengths & trends, floor-length curtains are currently at their peak of popularity. Surprisingly, linen curtains could kiss the floor by two, three, or four inches. This specific length elongates the room, makes it look more spacious, gives an elegant and sophisticated vibe as well. Floor-length linen curtains lightly move in the wind when you open the window and create a laid-back look too. For a classic, simple look, you could follow our size chart and choose the panel that only slightly touches the floor – it is an absolute, fuss-free classic. Of course, it would be better to stay away from shorter lengths since they make space appear smaller. If you are choosing curtains for the kitchen, hemline could stop where the the window ends.
If you want a texture, full look for your windows, allow the fullness of 1.5 x in width. The more drapes the more relaxed, comforting the place will look. When shopping at Wrinkles Shop, you can choose from two different width options: 92 in | 235 cm and 55 in | 140 cm though length does vary from 36 in | 91 cm to 140 in | 356 cm.
