Eyelet Curtains: Simple Guide & Purchase Options

Eyelet, or grommet curtains, are a top choice for modern interiors thanks to their smooth sliding mechanism and stylish look. With built-in metal rings at the top, these curtains are easy to install and adjust, making them both functional and elegant. Here’s a quick guide to choosing eyelet curtains and how to shop our wide range of quality curtain fabrics.

What Are Eyelet Curtains?

Eyelet curtains have rings (eyelets) that allow them to slide seamlessly along a drape rod. This design gives them a neat, structured appearance with soft, even folds, adding a contemporary touch to any room—perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices. Eyelet curtains have ranked among the top three most popular curtain styles in recent years.

Benefits of Eyelet Curtains

  • Easy to Use: Eyelet curtains glide smoothly, making them simple to open and close for adjusting light and privacy. That said, our other curtain styles with track systems also offer smooth and effortless operation.
  • Modern Style: Their clean, even folds create a streamlined look that complements various decor styles.
  • Metal Rod: A metal rod of eyelet curtains can bring a luxurious touch to your interior, seamlessly complementing your decor. It’s an excellent choice for simple curtains, adding a striking accent to your window treatment design.

Choosing the Right Fabric for Eyelet Curtains

  • Lightweight: Select lighter fabrics like cotton or linen for a bright and airy feel.
  • Medium-Weight: A balance of light and privacy, ideal for living room curtains.
  • Heavy Fabrics: Choose blackout or velvet options for full privacy and light blocking in bedrooms.

Eyelet Curtains, Rods, and Hanging Length

  • Selecting the Right Rod: Use a rod about 1.5–2 inches thick for an ideal fit.
  • Measure Carefully: Measure from the rod’s height to your preferred curtain length style.
