Guide | Curtains for every room | H&M HOME

The curtain guide

Every room has specific curtain needs, and we can meet them all. Browse our selection and learn more about the perks of different choices below.

BLACKOUT CURTAINS

Blackout curtains are highly effective at blocking out external light sources, making them ideal for bedrooms or any room where you want to be able to create a dark and serene atmosphere.
Our blackout curtains have a separate sheet of darkening lining layered behind the fronting fabric. This makes the curtain drape beautifully, giving it a heavy, more luxurious, high-quality look and feel. 

SHEER CURTAINS

No matter your home style, sheer curtains blend right in. Their ability to provide privacy while still allowing plenty of natural light to enter the room makes them a great choice for any space. 
Our sheer curtain range spans from very thin and see-through curtains — perfect for placing behind blackout curtains for a hotel-style look — to semi-sheer curtains in a stylish linen blend.

LINEN CURTAINS

The linen fabric welcomes light while still giving your space privacy. Given the material’s natural and durable qualities, this curtain choice will stand the test of time. 
Our range includes curtains in 100% linen as well as a more affordable cotton-linen blend. Many of them also have the choice of a tie-top hanging for a more bohemian look.

ROLL-UP CURTAINS

Add a charming vibe to your home with roll-up curtains. Slide the curtain rod through the top channel and adjust the length by tying the ribbons. This curtain comes in four natural shades and has a whimsical, romantic look that fits most rooms. For a more elegant look, place a dowel through the bottom channel to keep the curtain in shape when rolled up.

WIDE CURTAINS

Have you been blessed with large windows, or do you want to hop on the trend of draping your walls with textiles? Many of our curtains are available in a wider width, making it easy to reach just the look you are aiming for. 

Light control grading

Our curtains are divided into five grades of light control to make it easy for you to make the right choice for your room.
Max blackout: These curtains block out nearly all light to create a pitch-dark environment
Blackout: Very dense curtain that significantly reduces the light in the room.
Room darkening: Curtains with a high density that reduce light penetration but do not block it completely
Semi-sheer: These curtains allow some light into the room while still providing privacy.
Sheer: Curtains with a low density that let in most of the light, offering minimal privacy. Often used in combination with other curtains or where you want to let a substantial amount of light into the room.

CURTAIN HANGING TIPS

Most of our curtains have a multiway header that allows you to hang them in various ways to achieve different looks and functional benefits:
1. Slide the curtain rod through the pocket at the top of the curtain for a classic, gathered style.
2. Thread the rod through the hidden tabs on the back of the curtain panel for a sleek, pleated look.
3. Use curtain hooks placed in the small pockets in the header for a pinch pleat look.
The selection also includes curtains with top-tie hanging and accessories like finger hooks and stylish curtain tie-backs.
