14 Rustic Curtain Ideas To Complete Your Farmhouse Decorations

For a finishing touch on a farmhouse-style space, you'll want to add window treatments to pretty much any room in the house. Beyond their practicality — they are, of course, helpful for privacy and blocking out light — they're a great way to tie an entire room together.

You can't go wrong with solid white curtains, as Katie Hodges of Katie Hodges Design demonstrates in this living space. Just as there are all different types of white paints, there are also all sorts of solid white curtains, varying in opacity and hue. Both opaque and sheer white curtains work in farmhouse spaces, as they perpetuate the lightness and brightness that the style is known for (though, if you're going opaque, keep them on the sides of the windows to let as much natural light through as possible). As with paints, err on the warmer side of the white spectrum — it feels cozier than cool whites, which are better for more modern, minimalist settings.

If you're looking for curtains with more than one color, but without a pattern, color blocking is a perfect fit. Go bold on contrasting colors, or pick two similar tones for an elegant, elevated look.

If your home decor is skewing toward the minimalist side of farmhouse, like this scene from Studio McGee, you can go a little bolder with the window treatments. Floral curtains, like the ones in this dining room, tie in to the natural theme that's so common in farmhouse-style rooms, while adding some pattern to break up the solid woods and white walls. Don't go too crazy with color, though — neutrals are always a safe bet. And be sure to pick a pattern that doesn't feel too heavy. Again, keep it light and bright!

Is pure white too boring for your taste? You can also go with a nice solid neutral tone, whether that's oatmeal, gray, blush, or even a pale blue, as shown in this photo from Studio McGee. Farmhouse style is all about keeping things calm and cozy — a neutral certainly helps with that. We love how this color palette almost adds a touch of midcentury charm to the farmhouse living room.

As with florals, stripes are a good way to add a touch of color and a little bit of pattern to energize an otherwise neutral farmhouse space.
