Using Rustic Curtain Rods in Your Interior Design

How Rustic Curtain rods can go with just about any style. There are many different types of rustic curtain rods available. You can get rustic curtain rods in almost any size, too.

Rustic rods are so simple yet elegant, that they work with almost any type of decorating, from country to metropolitan modern. If you want to give a modern look to your windows, the simplicity of this design is perfect. On the other hand, in a country setting, they add a natural touch to windows and doors and the rest of the home. Using these types of curtains will really work in any setting.

Despite the versatility of rustic style curtain rods, they have the unique advantage of being extremely low cost. Even the lowest priced ones can be found in discount outlets at further reduced prices. Whether you look for them in person or online, you will be able to peruse a wide variety of designs. If you have decorated your home in a country theme, rustic curtain rods are the most perfect choice. The leaf, floral and animal patterns of country style curtains go perfectly with this style of rod, which can also have leaves, scrolls, and ivy on them.

These kinds of rods, despite their low prices, are really well crafted and very artistic. The metal in these rods is hammered and brushed metal so that the rod has a lovely polish or patina to it. They have the unique advantage of not rusting, since they are protected with a waterproof glaze on the surface. These rods are handmade, so the variety available for your decorating needs is almost infinite; each one is slightly different from the others. They can be small, medium or large, so you are sure to find the size that will suit your window frames. The standard size of rustic curtain rods is 24 to 36 inches, but larger sizes, rods that expand from 36 to 60 inches, and from 60 to 90 inches are available. This makes finding the perfect fit for your home easy, You can also obtain these rods in custom lengths. Add custom finials, beautiful hand finished mounts made of iron, iron rings, and mounting hardware all made in the patina finish unique to these rods, and you truly have a work of art. There are rustic curtain rods available in the market that are up to twenty feet long! Shipping costs would be applicable to the rods if you have them shipped to your home, but well worth it if you want to achieve a lovely new look in your home with rustic curtain rods.
