If you want to create a real impact at your windows lipstick red and beautiful black make a fantastic combination! Bright and yet elegant and chic making them ideal colours for lounges and bedrooms.

Due to the dramatic look these colours favour large lounges with wide windows and white paintwork. You can mix and match in a variety of different ways.

Contemporary and modern interiors look striking with full length black ready made curtains in tactile fabrics such as textured voiles, faux silk or organza. The in-trend eyelet headings are the ideal choice to hang from metal curtains poles with a contemporary design. Inject lipstick red by using soft furnishings such as cushions and throws along with the same gorgeous red ornaments , objects of interest or vases and table lamps in black with red shades.

Swap the curtains for red rather than black to reverse the theme which will bring a totally different look to the room. Lipstick red curtains compliment popular black leather sofas and chairs perfectly and are a cost effective way to create a stunning interior.
