A tartan pattern can give a room a rural, countryside feel, especially if you choose the traditional Scottish colour scheme. You can now buy ready made tartan curtains and matching cushion covers to create a theme that will remain in style for years to come.
These curtains work best if you already have traditional elements in your home, such as timber beams, classical paintings and oak floorboards. Exposed brick walls can work well beside these timeless curtains too, and they can effortlessly stand out in bedrooms, living rooms and kitchens.
If you really want to hone in on the traditional cottage feel, tartan curtains can be a clear winner. They can also work nicely in modern homes, and the good news is they’re always going to be in style, especially if you opt for that traditional red and green colour scheme.
