Macrame Curtains

When selecting macrame curtains consider the following tips:

• Choose macrame curtains that match the color of your room's decor. Proper choice of color will certainly create a beautiful effect.

• The type of macrame cord to be used should be given utmost consideration. Macramé curtains are not the same as regular curtains. Various kinds of cords make for entirely different styles of curtains. Hemp cord curtains will definitely be different from polypropylene cord curtains. It is important you know the kind of cord you will want to use. There are varieties of cord types to pick from, eg, Metallic Cord, Polypropylene, Hemp, Jute, Yarn, Cotton, Flax Linen Cord, etc.

• Do not forget to consider the measurement of the curtain. Without proper measurement you might not get the desired result. I'm sure you wouldn’t want that to happen! Remember the size of the window or windows has a part to play in the total cost of your macrame curtains.

• If you want to buy macrame curtains don't forget the temperature of your room. Also the texture is very crucial if you keep domestic pets. Get curtains that will withstand the pressures from pets. On the other hand, if you want to make them yourself I’ll advise you seek professional advice on the type of cords and knots to use. Some cords like the nylon type are not easy to use in making macrame curtains.

Keep to the above tips and you will ultimately get the best from macramé curtains.
