Voile or muslin, sheer, light weight curtains are a modern alternative to net curtains. They can also be used alone, to create a delightful, soft flowing feel to your windows, helping with privacy but not excluding light. You can use a variation of headings used on sheers, including pinch pleat, slotted channel, with a stand up frill or puffed heading and simple gathered tape headings.

Italian stung sheers hang beautifully as a single curtain or as a pair. They lift up at a higher point than the usual position of a tie back, allowing maximum light in; they then cascade in a free flowing fluid drape. Italian stung sheers can have a standard channel heading, or flamboyant puffed heading. 

When in tall windows either heading creates a beautiful alternative to normal curtains. There is a wealth of beautiful sheer fabric s available in many colours, plain or elegant designs, in wide or standard widths, with the option of a pre weighted hemline.
