An easy add-on to your curtains makes rooms look expensive - designers explain

Blue and pink living room with long drapes

If you love pattern, you'll love this emerging curtain trend. If you hate pattern you'll also love this emerging curtain trend. As someone who has plain white curtains surrounding every window in my home, the thought of adding any kind of pattern into my window treatments has always been a no-go. I was always of the mindset curtains are just there for when privacy and sleep are needed. They should go unnoticed, and not draw any light or attention away from the windows. 

However, I have slowly noticed the interior design trend for pattern seeping into my rooms. Just in really small amounts – pillows, throws, prints, my love of all things plain and neutral is slowly changing. So when I came across this curtain trend, I was on board. Curtains with borders and edging are the perfect balance – you get a dose of pattern and color, but it's not as bold or dominant as a patterned curtain.
