Creative Uses For Decorative Curtain Rods

When you are ready to redecorate, but your budget is limited

, you can make use of existing materials and creatively use decorative curtain rods and curtain panels to transform the look of a room. Imaginative use of curtain rods and curtains, for more than window coverings, can really add that wow factor you have been searching for!

Using Decorative Curtain Rods and Panels as a Headboard

Many times guest bedrooms need a little flair, and by installing a curtain rod in the middle of the wall above the bed, you can make it look like a custom headboard, either complimenting or matching the bedspread. You can even add whimsical ribbons or lace, curtain holdbacks for a theatrical flair, or multiple layers of curtains on several rods for a three-dimensional look.

Creating a Romantic Atmosphere with Curtain Rods and Panels

By placing the rods higher on the wall you can achieve a romantic look with long white sheets or sheer door panel curtains, which are already hemmed and much cheaper than even purchasing fabric. You will achieve a romantic, draped effect without spending an arm and leg.

Using Curtain Rods to Hang Murals, Collages, and Specialty Papers

There are rich, lustrous specialty papers available in craft stores which can be fastened to curtain rods with rings, much like you would hang a shower curtain. These papers come in many hues, patterns and textures, and can really fill up a will with a collage or mural look. You can be creative and hang anything you like from the decorative curtain rod.Using stencils and spray-paint you can really personalize your wall mural.

Using Curtain Rods and Panels as Room Dividers

By using a long curtain rod that spans the room, you can actually divide the room, separating different activity areas and even muffling sound. Many curtain rods can be extended, and this works particularly well on long, narrow rooms.

These simple ideas may spark your own creativity. Decorative curtain rods and curtain panels can define the style of your room for just a few dollars.
