Spruce up your windows with the right curtain rods, and you'll see them in a whole new light that you'll love. Whether you have a huge double window in your living room or a tiny window in your bathroom, it's easy to find curtain rods that fit it at Bed Bath & Beyond. You can shop based on the finish that best suits your decor or the size and type of hardware that the room needs.
The easiest way to choose decorative curtain rods is to decide what finish you want ahead of time. Though you might think that white is your only option because you've lived in apartments with plain curtain rods, think again. While white is still popular with some shoppers, others love rich and dramatic finishes that make their windows stand out. Black has a bold and dramatic look that works with any shades. Richer bronze is perfect for bedrooms and living rooms. Other options include brushed nickel, gold, and wood.
You should also consider the type that works with your windows. Don't assume that you're stuck because your home already has hardware for hanging rods, though, because many curtain rods come with hardware that is easy to install. A single rod consists of one pole that stretches across the window, while a double curtain rod has two poles. These rods are perfect for hanging two sets of drapes, like sheer and opaque ones, or if you want to use a valance with a set of curtains. There are also tension curtain rods that you simply pop into place. These rods can expand to fit larger windows or contract for use on smaller ones. Cambria® is one brand that offers single and double curtain rods in lots of styles and finishes.
Standard curtain rods are also available for those who want to save some time. Instead of requiring you to install new hardware, these rods work with the hardware you already have. They are usually made of aluminum with a black or white finish. You place one edge over the hardware on your window and then repeat this step on the other side. Once you push down on the rod, it will snap into place and give you space for your drapes. Zenna Home® makes more decorative options that add some style to your home and are easy to use.
Make your windows even more appealing with curtain tiebacks. Tiebacks are decorative accents that keep your curtains pulled back away from the window when you want to enjoy some fresh air or sunlight. They look nice when paired with decorative curtain rod finials that sit on both ends of your double curtain rod. Choose from designs such as doorknob, palm tree, seashell, pineapple, and modern geometrics to match the style of your room or add a conversation piece.
