Beaded curtains may have been a 70's favorite, but they're making a comeback

When you think about beaded curtains it probably brings to mind images of the 1960's or 70's, but with today's modern and chic beadwork you can use these fabulously beaded treatments to add a whimsical flair to your room's decor. Instead of using a door to separate rooms, a decorative beaded curtain can be used, allowing for free flow of air while adding a stylish touch.

A bead curtain is definitely a unique alternative to the typical curtain or door. Many of the curtains are beaded in unusual and creative patterns that can be a wonderful addition to any room. Crystal beads, wooden beads and plastic beads are all common materials used for making these exceptional curtains.

Some styles of beaded drapes or curtains can help give your room an elegant, sophisticated look. The combination of sheer curtains along with a crystal bead curtain will allow the sun to shine through, sending prisms of color across your room making it sparkle.

To keep your beaded hanging curtains clean, dust them on a regular basis. For deeper cleaning wipe them clean using a spray cleaner and a soft rag or paper towel. Otherwise, follow the instructions that come with your beads.

Whether you decide to use the beaded style of curtains in your doorway or on your window, you're sure to enjoy them!
