Frequently Asked Questions about Curtains for Living Room


What curtain length is best for a living room?

Floor-length curtains are almost always the best choice for a living room — they create height, make the room feel more generous and look the most finished. Hang the curtain rod as high as possible (close to the ceiling rather than just above the window) to maximise the sense of height.

How do I make a small living room look larger with curtains?

Hang curtains wide (extending 20–30cm beyond the window frame on each side) and as high as possible. This makes the window appear larger and the room feel more spacious. Choose lighter colours or sheers for the most open effect.

What is the best curtain style for an Indian living room?

Bold prints, rich colours and natural fabrics — cotton, linen and cotton-blend — work particularly well in Indian living rooms. Freedom Tree's collections are designed with the Indian home in mind: saturated colour, original print and quality fabric that works with both traditional and contemporary furniture.

Can curtains reduce noise from outside?

Heavy, lined curtains provide a modest level of sound absorption — enough to take the edge off street noise. For significant sound reduction, specialist acoustic curtains or double glazing are more effective. Lined curtains will, however, noticeably reduce noise compared to unlined or sheer options.

How often should living room curtains be washed?

Living room curtains accumulate dust and should be washed or dry-cleaned once or twice a year. Vacuum them lightly every month or two with an upholstery attachment to remove surface dust. More frequent washing is needed in high-pollution areas or homes with pets.
