Here are a few of the trends that will be going strong in 2019:

Jewel Tones

Many people want to play it safe with neutrals but being more daring with color is not only in style but also a great way to color block in a space. Whether it be ruby red, sapphire blue, topaz yellow or emerald green (you get the idea) jewel-toned drapery will result in instant drama!

Let the Light In

Instead of a hard window covering shade or blind, opt for a sheer under drapery for privacy. I don’t recommend this for street facing windows, but if you have a backyard window that gets minimal sun exposure, a sheer under drapery adds a luxurious layered look (and some privacy) while still letting the light in.

Embellishments

After a prolonged season of minimalism, maximalism is beginning to trend and I predict it will be going strong by the end of this year. This means that the simple drapery panels and valances that have been so popular will go back to including accent bands, tapes, beads, brushes or fringes.

Pattern

Drapery in patterned fabrics is also going strong. We especially love geometric prints like the panels in this guest room, and repeating the fabric in the bedding is a great way to pull the space together.

Metallic

Metallic drapery panels are still going strong and I don't see this trend slowing down anytime soon since there is an overall glamour trend emerging with a resurgence of Art Deco style.

Stainless Steel Hardware

Believe it or not, metal curtain rods are more popular right now than wood. Not only that, but practically every finish you can think of is popular right now… yes, even brass!
