In this guide, we’ll explore the different types of GlucksteinElements window treatments available, how to choose the right drapery hardware, and tips for selecting and hanging your drapery panels.

Types of Window Treatments

Sheer Curtain Panels

Sheer curtain panels are perfect for letting light into your room while maintaining a level of privacy. Our GlucksteinElements sheer drapery panels feature stylish linen-like textures available in warm natural hues and classic white. These versatile panels can be hung from a single rod pocket, through tabs along the back, or with clips purchased separately. Sheer curtains are ideal for living rooms, dining areas, and bedrooms where you want to enjoy natural light without compromising on privacy.

Light Filtering Curtain Panels

Light filtering curtain panels are an excellent choice for rooms where you want to soften natural light while still maintaining a degree of privacy. Our GlucksteinElements collection includes elegant options such as the Stripe drapes with a chevron weave and soft, variating stripes in a neutral tone, and the Variegated Tweed Lined drapes featuring a beautiful tweed-like texture and variegated stripe design in classic grey. These panels offer a balance between light diffusion and privacy, making them ideal for living rooms, dining areas, and bedrooms.

Room Darkening Curtain Panels

For those who need more control over the amount of light entering a room, room darkening curtain panels are an excellent choice. Our GlucksteinElements window treatment collection includes luxurious options like the Herringbone weave in charcoal and linen colourways, and soft velvet panels in multiple stylish colours. These drapes not only provide privacy but also help to block out light, making them perfect for bedrooms and media rooms.

Blackout Curtain Panels

Blackout curtain panels are designed to completely block out light, ensuring the highest level of privacy and light control. Our GlucksteinElements blackout drapery panels come in various textures and patterns, such as the Strié woven stripe in classic grey and the Crossweave jacquard in stylish silver grey. These panels are perfect for nurseries, home theaters, or any room where you want to eliminate outside light completely.

Drapery Hardware

Curtain Rod Kits

The right drapery hardware is essential for the functionality and appearance of your window treatments. GlucksteinElements offers curtain rod kits in designs ranging from modern to classic to suit any space. For a contemporary look, the Bryce collection features a sleek, elongated finial and the Ashton collection has a stepped design with textured ridges. Both drapery hardware sets are available in matte black, brushed nickel, and gunmetal finishes. If your style leans more classic, the Lindley drapery hardware collection has an Art Deco-inspired fluted finial design and is available in matte black, brushed nickel, and gunmetal finishes. To add warm, vintage charm to a room, Sloane is finished in brushed brass with a decorative ring finial.  

Ring Clips

Ring clips are a stylish and practical way to hang your drapery panels. The GlucksteinElements drapery clip ring set includes seven clips that fit drapery rods up to 1-inch in diameter, available in finishes like brass, matte black, brushed nickel, and gunmetal. These clips make it easy to open and close your curtains while adding a sleek look to your window treatments.

Tips for Choosing and Hanging Drapery

Make the most of your bedroom, living room, and dining room windows with these tips to choose and hang drapery and window treatment hardware.

1. Measure Your Windows: Accurate measurements are crucial. Measure the width and height of your windows, and consider adding extra panels for a fuller look. For a polished and tailored look, drapery panels should ideally just graze the floor or hang slightly above it, typically no more than a quarter of an inch. 
2. Select the Right Fabric: Choose fabrics that match your room’s decor and functional needs. Sheer fabrics are great for airy spaces, while heavier fabrics like velvet provide better insulation and light control.
3. Consider the Hardware: Choose drapery hardware that complements your drapery panels. Ensure the hardware can support the weight of the curtains and matches the style of your room.
4. Hanging Height: In most cases, position the curtain rod about six inches above your window frame. This technique makes the room feel taller and more spacious. If your room has a significant amount of space above the window, you should adjust the height accordingly to maintain proportion.
5. Layering: For a more luxurious and functional look, consider layering different types of drapes. For example, pair sheer curtains with blackout panels to enjoy natural light during the day and complete darkness at night.
