For somebody who doesn't use curtains in her home, Martha Stewart sure knows how to design them.
Speaking during a lecture at the Nashville Antiques and Garden Show in 2022, the lifestyle went as far as to say she could title her book 'A House With No Curtains,' but the reason doesn't come down to her dislike for their aesthetic. Instead, her ideology is more practical.
'I wake up really, really early,' she also previously shared during a Q&A with MasterClass CEO David Rogier. 'There are no curtains...so I let the sun come in as I start having workers come to my farm. I live on a farm, and they come...at 7:00 a.m., so I have to be up.' For those who don't live on a farm, however, Stewart recognizes that curtains are a key part of our decor – so of course, she designed some that are beautiful enough to elevate every type of window.
Martha Stewart's curtain collection, available on Amazon, comprises a range of lengths and thicknesses—whether we want delicate sheer (perfect for a cafe corner) or a black-out option for a long night's sleep. Our favorites (below) are reduced, and we're investing before it's too late.
These lightweight, tufted stripe rod pocket curtains (from Stewart's Lily Pond Coastal Window Collection) are designed to filter sunlight for a light and airy look softly. We think they'd look particularly beautiful on a kitchen window alongside our favorite flowers – the pefect morning coffee setting.
These cut velvet curtain panels (from Martha Stewart's Skylands Traditional and Elegant Window Collection) combine comfort, warmth, and maximalist style together. They are particularly perfect for spaces with a transitional or traditional style of decor – bringing yet more drama to an already bold, comforting space.
From the Bedford Country Farmhouse Window Collection, these floral curtains, with a blackout lining, bring a traditional, cottagecore feel to any living room, dining space or bedroom. The rod pocket or back tabs make hanging them feel seamless, and they're machine washable, making them refreshingly easy to care for.
Lightweight, versatile and always fashionable, these sheer curtains subtly filters light for a bright, spacious room (no matter the size). Sheer window panels can be used as a standalone treatment or layered window treatment, depending on whether we want a minimalist space or something that feels even more dramatic.
Also from the Bedford Country Farmhouse Window Collection, these foam-lined curtains keep out unwanted sources of sunlight, noise, and drafts. They're designed to help prevent floors, rugs, and furniture from fading while bringing yet more textural interest to the room in the process.
These yarn-dyed, tie-tab curtains come from Stewart's Lily Pond Coastal Window Collection. They exhibit a soft pinstripe on sheer fabric for a soft decorative interest in even the most minimalist of spaces. Alongside contemporary living rooms, we think they're suited to an entryway or landing where sunlight is welcome.
