Everyone loves the add grandeur and flair that they add to a space. Plus, if the windows in the room reach a high point on the wall, they\u2019ll let in plentiful natural light, which can make the room feel open and airy. As wonderful as high ceilings are, however, they come with certain challenges. Without proper d\u00e9cor, a room\u2019s massive vertical height might give the impression that the space is cold and intimidating. Don\u2019t worry. Custom curtains in Dallas, along with some other handy decorating tips, can help you make the most out of your home\u2019s tall ceilings.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Hang the Curtains High<\/h2>\n<p>You should hang your curtains, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ritascustomdrapery.com\/custom-draperies.html\">custom drapery in Dallas<\/a>, or other window treatments close to the ceiling. At first, this might strike you as strange or even intimidating. After all, it will require a lot of fabric, and it may not seem necessary if your windows do not extend all the way to the ceiling. However, if you do <em>not <\/em>take your window treatments to the ceiling, you\u2019ll isolate the area above them. Essentially, you\u2019ll create a division in the room that makes its upper portion feel cold and distant.<\/p>\n<h2>Favor Solid Colors or Subtle Patterns for Your Curtains<\/h2>\n<p>Because your custom, ceiling-height curtains are already so big, you have to be careful that they don\u2019t overwhelm the room. Solid colors, especially neutral tones like white, navy, or beige, can add timeless style to your room without drawing too much attention to themselves. If you do opt for a pattern, choose one that is subtle and that will give the other d\u00e9cor elements in the room the opportunity to shine.<\/p>\n<h2>Find the Perfect Lighting<\/h2>\n<p>While you might love that your high windows let in lots of natural light, you might not <em>always <\/em>want that light or have access to it. For nighttime, or for when you close your curtains, you\u2019ll need to invest in high-quality indoor lighting. The fixtures you chose should add to your room\u2019s grand ambiance and provide all the illumination you need for your daily activities. For example, you could make a statement with a crystal chandelier. Combine the chandelier with wall sconces and tasteful lamps to turn your room into a welcoming, well-lit oasis.<\/p>\n<h2>Make the Most of Your Wall Space<\/h2>\n<p>Your custom curtains will help high-ceilinged room to avoid looking barren or empty, but you might find that more is necessary. For example, you may decide to hang some artwork shelving high on the walls. Or, you could create a feature wall by painting one wall in a bold color.<\/p>\n<p>Tall ceilings are a fantastic architectural feature, but they could fall short of their potential if you don\u2019t decorate the room properly.
