When we think of curtains, we usually imagine windows because these are the most popular places where you can hang curtains. But still, they aren’t the only ones! Today’s roundup will show you how to integrate curtains to divide spaces, add interest to the rooms and hide eye sores, let’s dive in!
Separating Spaces With Curtains
Alcove Beds With Curtains
An alcove bed is a great solution for a tight space, perfect for guest bedrooms. An alcove bed can be hidden away with curtains that match the color and style of the space. While white and white semi-sheer are the most popular ones, if you have a vintage space, you can get some refined floral print drapes. If you have a particular color inside the alcove space, you can get two-sided curtains, white on one side and color you need on the other side.

Beds And Sleeping Spaces With Curtains
Other types of sleeping spaces and just beds can be also surrounded with curtains. If you have a large open layout, you can separate your sleeping nook with glass and curtains to make it cozier and more private, and sleeping there will be calmer. If you want to accent your bed in the bedroom, you can also do that with light sheer or semi-sheer curtains that will add movement and a dreamy touch to the sleeping nook making you fall asleep faster.

Closets With Curtains
If you have a niche closet, or a usual one or even a regular wardrobe that you want to be hidden, curtains are a great idea! Hang tall curtains to cover the entrance or the piece, and your bedroom or sleeping space will look more plain and relaxed, less furniture is more! Such an idea can be also applied to organize a closet in a bedroom: choose a nook, go for a makeshift closet with shelves and railings and then add curtains to hide it away.

Other Ideas
Separate your spaces with curtains, which will add movement, color and print to them and will delicately divide your rooms without installing any doors. This works especially for boho and vintage interiors, and also for rustic ones. If there are some draughts in your home, curtains will also effectively block them.

Hiding Eye Sores With Curtains
Kitchen Cabinetry With Curtains
Here basically it’s not always about hiding an eye sore, sometimes it can be about styling your kitchen more vintage and cottage-like, adding print and color or even using a tiered table instead of a cabinet but still giving it a neater look with a curtain.
