Velvet is a material that adds warmth and character to your interior. With its soft surface and beautiful sheen, it creates a cosy look that suits both modern and classic settings. Velvet curtains frame the windows and give the colour space to stand out, while velvet bed valances and cushion covers become decorative details that tie the room together.
Be inspired by how you can decorate with velvet in different colours and combine textiles for a personal and well-thought-out overall look.
Green velvet curtains – nature-inspired and harmonious
Green velvet curtains add a nature-inspired feel and give the room both colour and character. The velvet's fine sheen brings out the green shades and creates a vibrant look that shifts with the light. Combine with beige, warm woods and other natural materials for a harmonious whole, or let the curtains become a colourful feature against light walls and a more pared-back interior.
Brown velvet curtains – warmth and depth
Velvet curtains in brown or beige shades lend the room a warm, cosy feel, with the velvet's sheen adding depth and character. Beige velvet curtains create a lighter, softer frame, while deeper brown tones create a more expressive look. Feel free to combine them with other earthy colours and different textures for a harmonious tone-on-tone effect, or set the curtains against lighter details for a lovely contrast.
Different shades, different looks
The colour of your velvet curtains has a big impact on the feel of the room. White velvet curtains create a light and elegant frame, while blue shades add colour and depth. For a more muted colour palette, grey velvet curtains are a lovely option, from soft warm grey tones to darker shades that give a clearer contrast. Let the curtains harmonise with the other colours in the room or become a focal point that sets the tone for the interior.
Bed valance in velvet – a cosy detail
A velvet bed valance gives the bed a decorative frame and adds both texture and sheen to the bedroom. Choose a bed valance in the same fabric as the curtains for a cohesive look, or combine different colours and materials for a more personal feel.
Our bed valances come in several widths and are made to measure in height to fit your bed, while also hiding the bed legs and any storage underneath.
Let the details tie the room together
With velvet cushion covers, you can pick up colours from the curtains and the bed valance and create a cohesive feel in the room. Choose the same fabric for a coordinated look, or combine different shades and materials for a more vibrant overall effect. The soft surface and lovely sheen of velvet also create a beautiful contrast with, for example, linen, cotton and other textiles. A great way to add both colour and texture to your sofa or bed – with a touch of luxury!
