Don\u2019t be afraid to let them pool on the ground a little, especially if you want a look that has a touch of rustic charm. A home d\u00e9cor expert who specializes in window treatments can help you decide the exact right length for your sheer curtains.<\/p>\n<h3>Experiment with Color<\/h3>\n<p>Most sheers are white or off-white, but that doesn\u2019t mean you should be afraid to try out other colors. For example, some people alternate solid and patterned sheers to create a striped effect. Others use several sheers of different colors (if you choose to do this, make sure the colors you choose complement each other and the overall look of the room).<\/p>\n<h3>Pick the Right Hardware<\/h3>\n<p>Sheers weigh next to nothing, so you can choose to support them with a light or heavy rod. The type you choose will depend on the space. For example, a chic and airy look is best supported by light hardware, whereas dramatic elegance might work well with a heavier or wood curtain rod.<\/p>\n<h3>Layer as Necessary<\/h3>\n<p>Sheers are lovely, but they don\u2019t provide much privacy. If you choose to use them in your bedroom, layer them with blinds or blackout curtains so you can enjoy both the airy lightness of sheers and the protective power of heavier window coverings.<\/p>\n<p>Sheers aren\u2019t outdated. In fact, they\u2019re a timeless look that can fit well in any modern home.
