There are few things you can do to change the look and feel of your kitchen that will have as much impact as adding red curtains for a modern interior. It is quick and inexpensive to replace your existing kitchen net curtains or other types, and you will be surprised at how much difference this one small change can have. However, do not think that you need solid red kitchen curtains to make this alteration.
Gingham curtains are always a good choice to add country charm to a kitchen. There are also pink curtains of this kind if you choose to use another color. White backgrounds printed with a border of apples, cherries or roosters can also accomplish the same purpose. In addition, it will be easy for you to find canister sets, wall décor and linens that will complete the theme.
For a retro look, consider red plaid curtains or those with larger checks than traditional fabrics. Look for patterns reminiscent of old-time picnic cloths or dish towels. These fabrics were very popular during the fifties and coordinate well with the shiny vinyl many manufacturers are teaming with chrome for reproduction pieces. These curtains normally look best in a café style.

If you prefer a less colorful look, consider white curtains embroidered with small red roses with or without vines. You can also find them embroidered with other designs, such as cherries, strawberries or geometric symbols. The red adds just enough of an accent to brighten the room without becoming the focal point.
Dotted Swiss is an excellent fabric for kitchen window treatments. It is easy to care for and can add privacy without blocking out all of your light. You can also choose whether you want red dots on a white background or white dots on a red background.
A splash of bright color can work wonders when it comes to transforming a dark kitchen into a more cheerful room, regardless of the color of your appliances. Adding new curtains with a touch of red is very economical and, in most cases, is a change that you can make in mere minutes. With so many options from which to choose, your only difficulty will be in deciding on just one.
