What are some of the most popular Curtain types in NZ?

New Zealand, like any other country, has its own unique style when it comes to curtains. Here are some of the most popular types of curtains in New Zealand:

• Sheer curtains: Sheer curtains are lightweight and semi-transparent curtains are perfect for those who want to add a touch of elegance to their room without blocking out too much natural light.
• Blackout curtains: Blackout curtains or Blockout curtains are made from strong heavy-duty materials that are designed to block out light completely. They are an excellent choice for bedrooms and other areas where you would want privacy.
• S-fold curtains: These curtains have a unique "S" shape which has a soft and elegant flowing effect when hung. S Fold curtains go really well in modern homes, which create a nice contemporary look.
• Eyelet curtains: These curtains are incredibly easy to install as they simply thread through the rod itself and then fall in long, smooth lines of fabric. This style tends to look more modern and fuss free and so are perfect for bedroom curtains.
• Tab top curtains: are another easy option, with the rod running straight through the material loops or tabs at the top of the curtain. This look is a little more detailed than the eyelet and makes fantastic options for home offices.
