Although country curtain decorating is casual, that doesn't mean it's boring. From a simple valance hung over wooden blinds in a kitchen to a window dressed to the nines in florals and lace in the bedroom, you'll find there's a wide range of styles associated with country curtains. Primitive country decorating means starkly simple styles, such as quilts used as curtains, whereas a more Victorian country style uses layers of fabrics.
