Curtain advice for living room
I am doing a single curtain panel for each window next to the fireplace.
Should I do a heavy linen fabric like the RH or a velvet like the Ballard Design?
The curtains are stationary should I go with the french pleat or rod pocket style?

Boho-Modern Living Room and Dining Room. Thoughts and advice?
Comments (5)I think your design is a great starting point. Love all the plants you have going on. That ottoman doesn't fit the style very well, but I think a different ottoman could. Something more like the one in hollybar's first pic. An ikat patterned fabric would be great. Also, you'll notice that every inspo pic has bright white walls. Yours are very neutral, so they'll likely work, but your room might feel a bit different because of the color. I would avoid using lots of different colors, since boho tends to be very neutral. The pop of color on the ottoman is all you need. Try to keep the art fairly subdued, or very natural feeling. Love the white frames and mats in your design. Botanical prints could work well. Or maybe use more structural art pieces instead of prints. Look through all those inspo pics for ideas. Texture is super important to make boho work, especially since there's not a lot of color. The interest comes from the texture. Wood, leather, metal, knit are all great textures to introduce. Subtle patterns are good too. Get a very textural rug as a good base. Maybe sisal or more shaggy....See MoreCurtain Advice for formal living room
Comments (6)I would treat the bank of windows as one and use a pair of double width panels mounted on the wall space to the right and left, only going into the window to cover the frame. Whatever space you have on the right wall is the space you’d cover and the same on the left side. I wouldn’t do sheers. This will give you as much light as possible (since it’s under a porch.)...See MoreCurtain advice for living room
Comments (2)Floor length drapes would add some interest and softness to your room. As far as color/pattern, you could choose just about anything since you have no other pattern in the room. You could go with a large pattern that brings in the wall and sofa color or you could go with white and choose an interesting trim along the edges....See MoreLiving room and dinning room decorations and curtain suggestion..

5 years ago@threers - i love pattern but I am not very good with pattern-mixing . With the chair fabric I assumed it was safer to go with a solid. I am open to recommendations of fabric with pattern.

5 years ago@brown Dog - if i don't tie back the curtain and do a single panel similar to the below i should only consider the pleated panel and not the rod pocket? I found a blue velvet curtain but it only comes with a rod pocket, pleated panel isn't an option. Also, 96 inch curtain sits between the window casing and the ceiling.
