Your home is as individual as you are. No one else has exactly the furnishings, fabrics, art, and even perhaps the wall color you have, let alone the arrangement of the furniture and orientation of the windows. Selecting just the right drapery rod is like adding jewelry to your room. It’s not a large element in your decoration, but it can have a tremendous impact. You don’t want to make a mistake—but how do you know what will look the best? Curtain pole manufacturer can give yo help!

Tips for Choosing a Curtain Rod Color
There are many choices when it comes to curtain rod colors, including black curtain rods, gold curtain rods, brass curtain rods, and more. To decide which one will look best, you may want to start with the draperies themselves. It is a good idea to choose draperies and drapery hardware in tandem, because the curtain rod often drives the style of the curtains, and vice-versa.

Select a Curtain Rod Color That Matches Your Window Treatment
The new decade has ushered in a more relaxed, casual style in many homes. Neutral colors, minimal decoration, and simple window treatments may be exactly what you want. So, ask yourself: What color is the fabric? Are you selecting a neutral fabric to blend into the wall and keep the window low-key? Do you want to emphasize the view, rather than the draperies? You might want the curtain hardware to also blend in with the wall or match your draperies or the window trim.

Make Your Window A Statement Piece
There are some rooms or homes that are more formal and rely on antiques and handed-down elements to create a collected, lived-in look. In that case, you want your draperies and hardware to hold up in a room with strong elements. Perhaps you may even want an elaborate, dramatic curtain fabric to create a focal point in the room. In that case, equally elaborate, beautifully colored rods and finials will make a window your statement piece.

Keep it Simple
Lightweight, unlined white linen curtains would probably call for a lighter, simpler curtain rod, such as a Designer Metals Satin Nickel curtain rod, while dark silk curtains trimmed with fringe might look better with a 2” diameter mahogany or black wood rod.

Choose a Curtain Rod Color That Accents Any Metals in the Room
The rod can match or coordinate with other furniture, such as a chrome metal coffee table (see the Designer Metals collection in Polished Nickel) or an antique chinoiserie desk (see the Buckingham Collection in Black Gold). You may have dark wood floors (Wood Trends collection in Coffee) or a chandelier with gold accents (Designer Metals collection in Brushed Bronze). Your wrought-iron fireplace tools might be another inspiration (Wrought Iron collection in Black).

Popular Curtain Rods
While white wood curtain rods are a perennial favorite and always in style, you may want to try Wood Trends rods in Truffle (a gray-beige color) or Marble (ivory; just barely off-white). Gold curtain rods have also made a comeback. See the Buckingham Collection in Ornate, a beautiful custom hand-finished gold with options for elaborate finials or simple end caps.
