This means that now you can satisfy all your curtain needs, with styles that range from voile and damask to quilted and solid. Far from window draping, consider using your new curtains in the following different ways:
Well before there were doors, there were curtains. Proving that tradition rivals modernity, use curtains to replace doorways in your home. The curtains add a dash of Old World luxury. Opt for blackout curtains if you’re looking to drown out noise and better insulate the room. Switch to sheer voile curtains during the warmer months for a hint of whimsical.
Make the best use out of your living space – curtains transform that small nook or unwanted closet into a home office. Fit curtains to close off the space. Install shelving (if not already there) to hold all of your office supplies. Add an office chair and small desk for your computer or laptop. Draw the curtains and you have your own private home office.
Hide unpleasant items or spaces with the use of a curtain. A curtain installed in a garage (see above) allows the homeowner to keep a storage area that doesn’t prove an eyesore. By drawing the curtains shut, the space instantly becomes its own workshop. Instantly, the space feels more spacious and neat.
For those who live in a studio or small apartment space, making sure that guests make the distinction between bedroom and living room is often the biggest obstacle. Unless you’re living in a freshman dormitory, few people want their guests using their queen-sized bed for a sofa. A curtain can resolve this problem easily by dividing the room and creating a sense of privacy.
Curtains allow you to make double usage of your downstairs den/basement. Keep your washer and dryer, in addition to pending laundry, away from visitors’ eyes with the help of curtains. If you have children that like to play in the den, curtains can hide away an unsightly stash of toys.

The idea of dressing up the home while at the same time adding some degree of privacy to it is one of the primary features that curtains can bring. They help retain heat in cool weather, provide coolness in hot weather, reduces the effects of outside noise as well as blocking out extra sunlight. Thanks a lot.
