I knew a woman once who re-arranged the furniture every time she cleaned a room. Said that was the only way the room felt clean to her. Yeowch, thats a little much for me, but I still like a little change in my life once in a while. Like a good spring cleaning, a little change can make things feel fresh again.
There are some really easy ways to bring that fresh feeling into your home without spring cleaning or re-arranging the furniture. One of the easiest ways is to use curtain holdbacks. You can get a whole-room new look just by installing holdbacks to use with your existing curtains.
Okay, I can hear the cynics shaking their heads. Well, smarties, just try it. Use your hand to drape one side of your curtains back and take a look. Well? Its surprising how different it looks, right? And thats what this curtain accessory can do for your rooms.
Holdbacks are actually pieces of hardware that attach to your wall. Theyre basically a U shape, although youll find creative variations of that shape in the wide variety of holdbacks available. Installed behind each side edge of the curtains, theyre actually hidden behind your curtains when not in use.
And that brings up another point: using holdbacks isnt the same as painting or wallpapering a room. Youre not stuck with the change you can use these curtain accessories or not use them, its your choice! Want to impress your guests at that formal dinner? Use the holdbacks. Having a Sunday football party? Dont use them and theyre out of sight!
The best part about curtain holdbacks? They dont have to cost more than a lunch trip at the drive-through. And with the many, many styles available in so many different finishes youll have fun selecting coordinating holdbacks for your all windows!
Go ahead, make the easiest decorating decision of your lifetime and get
curtain holdbacks!
