Swag curtains are a fun way to add some color to your window treatments. Swag curtains are longer on the sides than they are in the middle, and come in a variety of lengths. You can pair your swag curtains with panels, tiers, or use solo.
Swags can come in a variety of styles and colors. Pair dark swag with light panels for a traditional look, or try floral swags solo. The different design possibilities are only limited by your imagination. If you do not find something that you like, you can make your own swags or shop for custom ones.
Double swag shower curtains are popular to decorate your bathroom in. Most people will pair the double swag shower curtain with a regular liner. The sides of the swag can be tied back and secured to the edge of the tub, giving the bathroom a finished look. The regular liner will keep your swags from getting wet when the shower is run. Most people will use the swags in a color that compliments the rugs and other decorative elements of the bathroom.
For some people, swags refer to a type of lamp. Swag lighting is lighting where the swag lamp hangs down. The cord to the lamp runs up through the chain to the ceiling, where it can be attached to an electrical box or run to the nearest outlet where it can be plugged in. A hanging swag lamp can be used anywhere that there is not direct access to an outlet – like over a dining room table, in a living room, over the bed, and more. Swag lamps come in a variety of styles. Tiffany swag lights with their beautiful colored glass are possibly some of the better known, but you can also go for a more contemporary look with a metal swag lamp.
To find the best deal in swags, be it curtains or lamps, you should definitely shop around. You can find either at your local home design store, or try shopping online. If you are going for antique swag lamps, it is better to work with a dealer that knows what they are doing than trying to buy through an auction site if you do not know what to look for. For swag curtains, you will need to purchase curtain rods to hang them with, as well as tie backs or hooks if you wish to pull back the sides.
