3 Things You Must Know Before Choosing Curtain Fabric

No matter how stunning a fabric may look on your windows, choosing the perfect curtain fabric to glam up your room can be a total nightmare. With all the interior decisions you already have to make—especially when redecorating—this one can feel overwhelming.

That’s why we’re here to share a simple guide with 3 important things you should know before beginning your curtain fabric journey. With these tips, your curtain shopping can be smooth, enjoyable, and most importantly, well-informed.

1. Measure Your Window First

Taking note of your window measurements is the first and most important step in the curtain fabric selection process. In order to ensure that your new curtains fit properly, having the right measurements (and writing them down!) will help your fabric supplier know how much you need. This will allow you to create a preliminary solution, a sewing sketch for your window. Not sure what size you need? Measure the width of the curtain rod (or window if the curtains are not already hung) from left to right. You will also need to measure the length of your window or the area you want your curtains to cover. If you have an option for long curtains, you should measure from ceiling to floor. A good curtain fitter can advise you on fabric requirements based on these measurements.

2. Know When & Where to Buy Your Fabric

Before scheduling your curtain fabric shopping trip, it’s a good idea to know where to buy. Ideally, choose a reputable fabric supplier who can offer:

• A wide range of curtain fabric options – including textures, colors, and patterns.
• Better quality assurance – so you don’t have to worry about safety or durability; the fabrics have already been tested and proven.

3. Consider the Fabric Carefully

The type of curtain fabric you choose will make a huge impact on the overall feel and look of your space. That’s why it’s essential to consider what type of fabric you want before making your final decision.

Many people make the mistake of picking out curtain fabric without thinking it through, or worse—designing the room first and trying to match curtains later. This often leads to mismatched furniture and a space without cohesive aesthetic flow.

So before you commit to a curtain fabric, take a moment to consider the style and theme of your room. This will help you coordinate your curtain fabric with the other materials, finishing touches, and furniture that share the same space.
