When color matched with the other design elements in the room, silk curtains can become the center of attraction, something that the guests notice first in the room. Matching colors does not necessarily mean having the same color for furniture, paint, and curtains. In fact, that will make the room look boring, and take away much of the attraction of the silk curtain. You only have to match the curtains with one or two elements in the room. It can be a rug of the same color or throw cushions with similar silk covers. That will bring a perfectly blended look to the room. For example, if you have a red silk curtain, you can use a matching red carpet or rug or stitch red silk covers for the couch cushions. Provide enough lighting to fall on the curtain to reveal its lustrous beauty. However, make sure that the light is not given in excess so that the real color and shine of the silk curtain is overshadowed by a pool of light.
