Very concise and to the point video and i like the fact that your speech is neither too fast nor too slow. It is the best english video I've found regarding curtains tips. It covers the basics that a person should know before buying. I would really appreciate if you make a video on choosing curtains according to the colours of the wall. I have lime green wall in my bedroom and I'm confused about the colour of the curtain, i should go for.
Thanks for the tips. We, my hubby and I became empty nesters a few years ago and now that we have entered the world of retirees we just purchased a smaller home and I can't wait to get in there and decorate. I just subscribed to your channel so that I can follow your ideas. Take care!
Love the advice. And that plant is amazing. I live in an apt, not so luxurious and everybody in my family likes diff things. All I want to do is cover those hideous blinds. Yet still be able to see outside so sheer is likely.
thank you! have a hard time deciding between yellow and rose colored velvet curtains.. both look great in a photoshop mockup. it's a good idea to think about the emotions I want to evoke

Great video . I love the idea to first think of the mood we want to create . I’m often having a hard time finding videos that help with color choice for curtains though . I have an olive green couch and I don’t want beige , gray or blue or burgundy/ rust red curtains . I want a peaceful serene elegant look. ( if I had my way I’d have a different color couch but have had to work with a his hand me down olive green couch 😏). I’ve considered sage curtains but my walls are painted a beige with a green or sage hue it seems … depending on the lighting in the room ( was painted that color when we moved in and I’m afraid to paint it any other color because that in itself can be tricky lol . ) . I want sage curtains but I worry that’s way too much green in the room lol . I also don’t know if that will actually go with an olive green couch .
I can deal with gray , light blue or beige curtains if need be but I’ve tried beige before and it really looked so flat and weird against our light colored walls . That’s the only reason I’m afraid of the lighter version of those colors now . Just because light curtains seem to fade into the wall but dark curtains with our dark couch creates a mood I’m not going for in our home . I wish I could create light , airy, serene elegance with a touch of warmth with an olive green couch 🤔. I haven’t tried grays yet but trial and error tends to waste money we don’t really have.
I hear you! I would go with a warm white or possibly a pattern with some sage green that way you don't have to worry about colour matching. Let me know how it goes! Karla
You can't go wrong with a linen/cotton combination. It's always a classic and goes with any style. I hope that helps. Let me know how it goes if you're choosing fabric. Karla

Great video! What kind of window treatment do you recommend for a window that doesn’t go to the floor and is on an adjoining wall to a larger window that goes to the floor? 👍🏻😊

Hi Marie....I like a really simple rod. Places like Restoration Hardware and Pottery Barn make really nice ones. Personally I love a matte black rod. I don't think the rod color has to match the window casing. Let me know how it goes. Hope that helps! Karla
I moved into an old house in upstate NY there are big ugly radiators under or next to the windows. Can’t pay to have radiator covers it’s a rental. None of the “rules” apply in this old house. I just need to know how to style the curtains. The ceilings are high am I stuck going short ? Where does the rod go? I’ve got ok big window without the radiator under it. But one small one above a huge radiator
Hi Nicole -- you may have to do a different kind of window treatment like a roman shade, or some kind of blinds as it sounds like a curtain won't work in the space. Karla
Good question! I like really simple. Personally, I'm using a matte black simple rod I found at Home Depot! I like the curtains to be the focus not the rod. Simple design and style. Hope that helps. Karla

Hi There. I need your recommendation. I have hugh ceilling, and I have my velvet sofas but I am wondering which fabric I should choose for my living room curtain. Also please suggest color.
I'm finding drapes are not as well made anymore, plus its hard to find drapes for a large picture type window. Can you give advice where to find decent wide width drapes. The ones I've seen are either plain color or ugly patterns. My choice is as yours warm, comfortable, and welcoming.
Any suggestions for 3 large transom windows in a living room w/ 11.5ft ceilings? Privacy not an issue with no house in back so I initially thought just sheers, but another design video said that would not be enough to anchor the windows and sheers are only meant to be used with other curtains. Thoughts?
Hi Michele -- I think you can do sheers, I would just make sure to double up on the panel fabric so it seems substantial. You could also look at doing a linen/cotton blend which is sheer but has some weight to it as well. Hope that helps! Karla
Karla Dreyer Design thank you so much for responding! Love that I found your channel, as I’m currently thinking of switching career fields and going into interior design. You’re very inspirational.
Hello! It depends if you want a more formal or casual look. Pinch pleat is more traditional while a wave fold creates a more casual look. I hope that helps! Karla
Help! I am trying to buy pre-made pinch pleat curtains. I need to know if the measurement is the width x length or is it length x width when ordering pre-made drapes.
Hi Cindy -- Restoration Hardware has some great options and can walk you through the measurements. Pottery Barn is another good option. Let me know how it goes! Karla
Hi I need some help deciding on curtains, I live in the country so I feel more safe about just having more sheer white curtains and I love how it looks so bright and airy, but I also have the problem where when my windows are open the sun creates glare on my tv. Which do I choose? also should I even do white curtains or just white sheers in the middle. I am doing March wind Sherman Williams for my wall color
What is that second custom fabric you showed. Also if you have all black seats and blue abtract rud do you recommend dark or light color curtains and the wall is white
