4 Reasons It’s Important to Invest in High Quality Draperies

September 11, 2017

As you’re decorating your home, it can be hard to decide what to invest in. You do want your place to look great, but you don’t have an unlimited budget. While some areas of your home may be fine to skimp on quality, curtains are not a place to do it. Read the four most important reasons to invest in high-quality curtains.

1. Your curtains can tie the room together

You can mix and match furniture, find art that works well with a vastly different rug, and choose flooring that’s out of sync with the style of the rest of your home – as long as your curtains bring it all together. Choosing the right color or pattern of curtains can result in a room seamlessly coming together. If you do this with poor quality draperies, the effect will not be nearly as impressive.

2. Your investment will last longer

It may cost some money to invest in high-quality curtains but they’ll literally last years longer than cheap curtains. They won’t fade as easily, they won’t rip as easily, and they’ll be worth cleaning and mending. Don’t think of curtains as a stylish option to add today, think of them as just as important as choosing the right couch. Sure, you could find cheap options but you’d have to keep buying them year after year.

3. They can lower your utility bills

If you buy thick curtains, such as blackout or velvet curtains, they can do wonders to insulate your home. This can keep your heating costs down in the winter and your cooling costs down in the summer. It will also simply make your home more comfortable. Who wants to deal with cold, drafty windows? Instead of having your windows replaced, get lined curtains that can help insulate your home.

4. They’re not as expensive as you think

At Half Price Drapes, we’ve learned that many people assume that high-quality drapes will cost them thousands of dollars. When you look at our selection, you’ll likely be shocked by just how affordable your options can be. Whether you look through our clearance section for rock bottom prices, or have custom curtains ordered for oddly shaped windows, you’ll likely find that you can get what you need for much less than you’d expect.
