- Curtain swags and tails can add a touch of elegance and sophistication to a room. Their unique design creates a classic look that can elevate the overall decor and ambiance of the space. The combination of swags and tails provides a luxurious finishing touch to window dressing, making it stand out and giving the room a more refined appearance.
The cascading drapes of swags and the graceful length of tails can add a sense of grandeur and visual interest to the windows, creating a focal point in the room. Additionally, the use of velcro to join swags and tails can create a seamless and continuous appearance, enhancing the overall aesthetic.
However, the impact of curtain swags and tails on a room's appearance ultimately depends on the individual's taste and the overall interior design of the space. When chosen and installed wisely, they can indeed contribute to the room's elegance and class.
Also, there are numerous ways to style swags and tails, and the possibilities are limited only by one's creativity and imagination. Here are some popular ways to style swags and tails:
1. Classic Swag and Tail: The traditional way of draping swags over the curtain rod or pelmet board with tails hanging gracefully on either side.
2. Looping Swag: Swags are looped or folded back, creating a more layered and textured look.
3. Asymmetrical Swags: Instead of having identical swags on both sides, one side can have more swags or longer tails for an asymmetrical design.
4. Cascading Swags: Swags can be cascaded in a waterfall-like manner, creating a dramatic effect.
5. Swag with Jabots: Adding jabots (decorative pleated fabric) to the sides of swags can enhance the overall look.
6. Swags with Tassel Tiebacks: Incorporating tassel tiebacks can add a touch of elegance and functionality.
7. Layered Swags: Using multiple layers of swags with different lengths or fabrics can create a luxurious look.
8. Gathered Swags: Swags can be gathered in the middle, creating a bunched and gathered appearance.
9. Relaxed Swags: A more casual and relaxed look can be achieved by letting the swags drape softly.
10. Festooned Swags: Swags are draped in a scalloped or festoon style, resembling festoon blinds.
Remember that the choice of fabric, length, and style can significantly impact the final look. When styling swags and tails, it's essential to consider the overall theme and decor of the room to achieve the desired effect.
Subsequently, by Adding roman, Venetian, vertical, or festoon blinds to complement curtain swags and tails can create a beautifully layered and functional window treatment. Here's how each type of blind can complement the swags and tails:
1. Roman Blinds: Roman blinds offer a clean and sleek appearance when raised and neatly folded when lowered. They can complement swags and tails by providing an additional layer of privacy and light control. Choose a fabric that complements the colors and patterns of the swags and tails to create a cohesive look.
2. Venetian Blinds: Venetian blinds consist of horizontal slats that can be adjusted to control light and privacy. They can complement swags and tails by adding a modern touch and providing precise light control when needed. Consider matching the color of the Venetian blinds to the curtain rod or other elements in the room for a harmonious blend.
3. Vertical Blinds: Vertical blinds have vertical slats that can be rotated to control light and provide privacy. They are particularly suitable for large windows and sliding doors. When paired with swags and tails, they can offer a practical and contemporary window treatment solution.
4. Festoon Blinds: Festoon blinds, also known as festoon shades or festoon curtains, are soft fabric blinds with horizontal gathering creating a scalloped appearance. They can complement swags and tails by adding a softer touch and texture to the overall window dressing. Choose fabrics that coordinate well with the swags and tails for a cohesive look.
By combining different types of blinds with curtain swags and tails, you can achieve a versatile and stylish window treatment that balances both aesthetics and functionality. Just ensure that the colors, patterns, and styles of the blinds harmonize with the overall decor of the room and the curtain treatment for a unified and visually appealing result.

Hi! I'm new to this site, and an artist too, who enjoy's watching other artist do their thing!!! I love to learn and I'm a quick study as well! I'm a creative addict! I will fearlessly try to do another artist demo, that I've watch this was so much fun!!! I just loved and adore the 1-2-3 project!!! I recently had a big gas fire that a firefighter died in, I knew him too, in the smoke, he thought the elevator was an apartment! I just about lost everything, so in order to prevent myself from falling into a depress state of mind, I have been searching for new ideas to inspire myself! So this was and is a great pick me up!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!
+Firerain Keeler I am sorry about the firefighter you just don't thing they would die doing good, but fire is no respecter of man or anything. but I am glad you will try to do something of mines, I have over 300 videos so knock yourself out. Lol. Thank you for watching
Hi Des, have been watching your videos on swags and enjoy your skillful art of your profession .

Hello!
My name is Silvia, I'm from Argentina, I want to tell you I love your work I try to learn, I have a question about the formula
for swags and tails. is calculated as the distance between the points g, d. and each cuts are made as to perform after folding. surely what you say in the video but not English as I can write for me to Translates.
from already thank you very much!
