Winter is well on its way with the cold weather slowly creeping in, but don’t worry, we have plenty of soft furnishings to keep your home warm when the cold weather strikes.
If you’re looking to cut costs at the moment, like most, then avoid switching your central heating on until it’s absolutely essential. You can focus on using soft furnishings to keep your home warm … we’re already reaching for our TV blankets this year and sticking hot water bottles in our beds to beat the chills!
Soft furnishings can make a massive impact when it comes to maintaining a comfortable temperature in your home, they help to lock in heat and keep the cold out. We have plenty of stylish products you can use in your home to keep it at the right temperature and we recommend using door curtains to help get rid of draughts.
There are lots of different styles of door curtains available that will complement a range of décors, both modern and traditional. The great thing about door curtains is that they’re affordable, practical and stylish at the same time. The best place to use a door curtain is on your front door as this is one of the main places where heat escapes and the cold comes in. If your front door features glass panels then door curtains will also help to improve your privacy levels and stop prying eyes from being able to see in.
Another place where heat escapes from your home and cold weather comes in is the windows. You’ll notice that there are sometimes draughts that come through your windows and the best way to keep these at bay is with thick curtains. Finding the right curtains for your home can often be a challenge and your favourite styles can often be fairly thin. If this is the case in your home then you can add a lining to your curtains that will help to reduce draughts and insulate your home. You’d be surprised at how much of a different curtain linings can make!
Not only do curtain linings help to keep your home warm and reduce draughts, that extra layer can help to reduce noise from outside your home which is particularly useful if you live on a busy road. Head over to our website to take a look at our thermal curtain linings.
