How wonderful would it be to walk into a room and feel the breeze of the summer evenings? Net curtains are here to serve that purpose. Their delicate features can turn your room into a soft looking haven. Don’t assume that a net curtain looks like a fish net. Their femininity is appealing for those who need to bring comfort to a room. With a luxurious appearance they actually create a strong characteristic feature if you need something chic. You can compare them to lace,sheer and voile curtains accept the difference is that they are knitted rather than woven with completely different threading. If you want stronger thread and not too soft then you need net material. There are all kinds of patterns used for net like floral or other pretty creatures like birds or butterflies. They are aesthetically beautiful but there is a catch to their elegance. You can see right through the holes or the sheer of the patterns which means, no privacy.
Considering the wide range of patterns the only two colors you will find available in net are creamy, white and sometimes black. Black is used sometimes to create a web-like look for those who want to decorate for a particular holiday or for rooms that need a balance in color. Although I am a very simple person and like to stick with the most common and most basic designs like the Plain Jane type, I am very impressed with some of the designs on the market. Some of the most gorgeous ones that have made my mouth drop are the romance or the café net curtains. Even though you can not rely on them for privacy you can still double the width of your panels on order to gather them if they are too sheer.
Don’t be mistaken when shopping for these net curtains, you know they are only made in two and sometimes three colors. So if you see any in colors like maroon, blue, peach, etc, know that they might be voile. Many people can not tell the difference between woven and knitted so a person can start out by eliminating the colorful ones. Another way to tell is to feel the fabric with your fingers. If it feels rough or course then chances are that it could be net curtains. You will need a rod that is used for light window curtains that will not stand out. If you are a savvy shopper you can find cheap prices or look through vintage curtains for good deals.
