When people think of decorating their homes, kitchen curtains are often at the end of the list.
They are often forgotten because many people choose to leave their lone kitchen window bare.
The truth is kitchen curtains can add a lot to your kitchen in terms of appearance.
The great thing is they don't cost a lot to buy and install.
If you do some online research you will see that a curtain including the curtain rod will start at around fifteen dollars.
That's certainly not a lot of money for something that could make a big difference in how your kitchen looks.
You will have tons of options as curtains for the kitchen come in every type of pattern, texture and color.
If you are new to all of this then just keep in mind that kitchen curtains require different maintenance than living room curtains.
Can you remember the last time you cleaned and washed the curtains in your living room or even bedroom? The answer is probably not.
Curtains in the kitchen are exposed to more airborne traffic and by that I mean they are more likely to get dirty and wet.
Many times the window is in front of the sink and so liquid and food leftovers splash on the curtain.
There's also cooking fumes which often include grease that often buildup on the curtains fabric.
A great option would be a curtain that is easily washable.
Fortunately most kitchen curtains are made using fabrics that can tolerate wash after wash.
So go ahead and think about it, if your kitchen window is bare and you feel something is missing then it could be a curtain.
Keep in mind that a little experience with tools will be necessary for you to install the curtain rod.
