Fabric Characteristics Guide
Visually showcasing fabric properties to help you effortlessly balance light, privacy, and texture.
Lightness vs. Heaviness:
Are you looking for a light, airy fabric or a rich, substantial drape?
Light Control & Privacy:
Do you prefer soft, diffused light, complete blackout, or something in between?
For enhanced light control and privacy, consider adding a 100% blackout lining with ZeroLight TriCore™ Technology to your chosen fabric.
How to Choose the Right Fabric
If you're unsure which fabric is best for your space, consider the following factors:
Evaluate Light Needs
Choose light-filtering fabrics to soften natural light while maintaining brightness, or opt for blackout fabrics to completely block sunlight. Layered treatments can also provide adjustable control based on different times of the day.
Assess Privacy Needs
Choose blackout or densely woven fabrics to block outside views and create a more private, cozy environment. For more control, consider dual-layer curtains that let you adjust privacy as needed throughout the day.
Consider Your Décor Style
Choose textures, patterns, and colors that complement your interior design. Opt for subtle tones for a minimalist look, bold patterns for a statement piece, or textured fabrics to add depth and warmth to your space.
Consider Practicality
Choose durable, stain-resistant, and easy-to-care-for fabrics, particularly for high-traffic areas or homes with pets. Performance fabrics ensure a clean, long-lasting look with minimal maintenance.
Consider Window Type
For large windows, double-width fabrics are often needed to achieve the desired fullness and elegant drape. Our pleated curtains are designed with 2x fullness, ensuring a tailored, elegant look for wide windows.
Consider Energy Efficiency
Using 100% blackout linings with ZeroLight TriCore™ Technology helps regulate temperature, reduce energy costs, and improve year-round comfort. Heavier, tightly woven fabrics also minimize drafts and heat loss.
Fabric Double Width Explanation — About Seaming
"Vertical Seam (Double Width)" means joining fabric panels to create wider curtains. This is a common and standard practice when the curtain size exceeds the fabric roll width.
Curtain Width & Seam Guide
No Seam Required
If your curtain panel falls within our standard fabric width range, no vertical seam is needed.
Vertical Seam (Double Width)
When the panel width exceeds the fabric’s original width, we will join two pieces of fabric vertically. This is a common and necessary practice for wider curtains to ensure full coverage.
What Affects Seam Requirements:
Header style (pleated headers often require more fabric)
Fabric collection (different fabrics have different usable widths)
Curtain size (custom width and length)

Fabric Care Guide – Keep Your Curtains Looking Their Best
With the right care, your curtains will retain their elegance, texture, and performance for years.
Care Tips:
Gentle Washing: Use a mild, non-toxic detergent and avoid bleach to preserve fabric quality.
Avoid High Heat: Do not tumble dry on high heat. Air drying or low-heat drying is recommended to maintain softness and color.
Regular Dusting: Lightly vacuum curtains to remove dust and debris, preventing buildup.
Professional Cleaning: For deeper cleaning, we recommend our Healthy Curtain Cleaning Service to remove odors and maintain fabric integrity without using harmful chemicals.
Special Note:
Each curtain fabric is carefully selected and treated to align with our eco-friendly and health-conscious values, ensuring that every piece complements both your home décor and lifestyle.
