Even the simplest window treatment can dress up any room. Blinds, curtains, shades, shutters and more are on the list of choices for the self-styled interior designer or the true professional. Among the options, and growing in popularity, are tab top curtains.
Though the varieties and styles are numerous, the tab top curtain is identifiable by the series of fabric loops at the top of each panel of material. The loops are made to be able to easily slip around a rod or pole. The loops are of the same material as the curtain and are generally sewn to the fabric. Sometimes buttons are attached to the loops as a decorative touch.
Many people choose this type of curtain more for design than function. Often they are merely a way to add a splash of color to an existing window treatment such as blinds or shades. Designers are able to use patterns and colors to complement existing decorative schemes without the necessity of a complicated operating mechanism.
Typically a lighter fabric is used in the tab top panel than is used with traditional curtains. Additionally, the folds of the classic curtain are absent with the tab top variety. Again, their primary purpose is to dress up a room with style and flair, but without breaking the bank
These curtains are known for their simple elegance and no-frills style. The difference in styles that does exist is a result of a variance in fabric more than anything else. For the homemaker, the loop attachment is a snap, making the tab top curtain an easy enough sewing project that can be fun and cheap.
This curtain type can be adapted for use as valances or side curtains. They can be bunched together or left to blow in the breeze. The lighter material makes for a relaxing effect as the colorful curtain bounces gently with the wind.
You ultimately decide how you want to utilize this kind of curtain. Use it as your primary window treatment or as an accoutrement to blinds or other window coverings. Accent your furniture or complement your interior paint. Give your home the dressing up it is crying out for – give it tab top curtains.
