Reno Blog #23 - Curtains Selection

We arranged for the curtain maker to meet us at our unit for selection of curtains. He cut to the chase and shortlisted the selection of the curtain fabrics according to price ranges. He was recommending that for a large expanse of window like ours at the living room, we should choose something with a wide design, rather than one that was too close-knitted. The latter would not show up as nice as the width was too large (over 3 metres). There was a pretty sample which was comprising of plain white organza background, with crystals stuck on it in a wavy manner.
