Are you looking for new window treatments for your home? Two common options you will come across in New Zealand are curtains and drapes. To understand which would suit your needs better, it’s important to understand the differences between curtains and drapes, and the advantages of both.
Curtains are fabric panels used to cover windows, and are generally cut to fit a window or drop a few centimetres below it. Drapes are also fabric panels but are generally made from thicker fabrics and cut to floor length or to slightly puddle on the floor.
Both curtains and drapes can enhance your décor and the overall aesthetic of a room, and are available in multiple options for light control, privacy and insulation.
