Mastering Drapery Header Styles: A Comprehensive Guide
April 14, 2016
When it comes to curtns, simply hanging them might not be enough. There's a world of header styles that can elevate your space with elegance and personal style. Our new range of window treatment options has sparked some DIY interest in many enthusiasts. Understanding drapery header styles is about knowing the mn types out there - from casual to regal designs.
Let’s delve into how box pleats, rod pocket ruffles, back tabs, pierced headings, pencil pleats, swagged headers, pinch pleats, tied tops and more can transform your windows and add character to any room. This guide is here to help you select the perfect drapery header style for your taste.
Box Pleated: The pleats are arranged in a neatly aligned box pattern, offering an elegant appearance suitable for classic and orderly homes.
Rod Pocket Ruffles: With this design, the curtn features a simple sleeve at the top that expands into ruffles when pushed back. It's perfect for casual environments with a relaxed vibe.
Back Tab Headers: Tabs on the back of curtns make them look free-floating when not in use. Ideal for modern spaces seeking a sleek and minimalistic aesthetic.
Pierced Heading Grommets or Eyelets: A series of holes through the curtn allows it to fall into smooth, crisp waves. This versatile style is suitable for romantic or clean-cut interiors.
Pencil Pleats: The fabric pinches together in small segments to create neat folds on modern windows.
Swagged Headers: The fabric hangs in a U-shape, reminiscent of curtns from more formal periods. A classic choice for rooms with romantic aesthetics.
Pinch Pleats: Multiple pleats are stitched together at intervals to add a sophisticated and structured appearance, perfect for grand settings.
Tied Top: Strips of fabric attached to the top of the curtn tie around the rod when drawn back, fitting casual or rustic styles beautifully.
Goblet Pleats: The header is stitched further down with additional layers that resemble goblets. A timeless style ideal for romantic and feminine rooms.
Flat Panel Headers With Pegs: Fabric is sewn with loops that hang over pegs, creating a casual look with an accent on simplicity.
Tab Top Headers: Fabric is stitched with tabs that expose the curtn rod when drawn back, perfecting rustic or minimalist designs.
Flat Panel Headers Pleated Top: A contrasting fabric panel sewn into the header adds a subtle flr while remning casual and functional.
Attached Valances: The added fabric resembles traditional valance curtns. This works well for rooms emphasizing high contrast.
Folded Cuff Headers: With a folded header exposed lining, this creates a clean line with an accent on the front-facing edges of your window treatments.
Explore these drapery header styles to find the perfect match for your personal style and room's atmosphere.
