Tone down the gusto of a vibrant room with Pichwai's understated elegance or add visual interest to a color-shy space while keeping up with its understated tones. HomeSewn Wisdom: Don't skip lining: Bright-colored cotton may gradually fade over time when continuously exposed to the hot sun, so, be sure to add lining behind your cotton curtains and protect them from sun damage. The lining will also add more volume to the drapery panels, making them look more sumptuous and lush. Opt for a suitable heading style: Let the heading style of the drapery go hand in hand with your overarching design and theme. For a modern setting, think of grommet tops or flat panel tops, and for a traditional or transitional space, consider the timeless pinch pleats. Consider roman shades: If you’re dressing a small window or a compact room, try roman shades in Pichwai as a sleek and stylish alternative to curtains. They will offer you the same designer appeal as drapes without commanding any more space than the window itself. Order swatches: Screens may lie; swatches don’t. For the most accurate representation of color, pattern and texture, order a sample of the Pichwai fabric before placing your window treatments order. This will allow you to experience the fabric in your own lighting and setting, so you can commit to it with confidence. Coordinate with accessories: For a cohesive bespoke look, coordinate your curtains with other textile accessories in the room. Order matching cushions, bed runners, table covers, etc. from us or buy Pichwai fabric by the yard to create something uniquely yours. The Nitty-Gritty (Made Pretty): Prices are per panel, not per pair because sometimes all you need is a solo act on a narrow attic window. No forcing you to spend on two where one will do. Hardware is not included with our drapes, so please be prepared with poles, rings and other pretty little things. Each drapery panel at Sewn is handcrafted by skilled artisans from India who pour care, precision and decades of experience into every stitch.
