The Best Curtains for Large Living Room Windows

Got oversized windows in your living room? While they flood your space with light and charm, they also demand window coverings that are equally dramatic and functional. 

EZcurtain brings you a professional, easy-to-follow breakdown of the best curtains for large living room windows—featuring practical advice, product picks, and expert design tips.

Why Custom Drapes Are Essential for Large Living Rooms

When it comes to oversized windows, off-the-shelf solutions often fall short—literally. Standard sizing may leave you with gaps or pooling issues. Custom drapes from EZcurtain ensure:

• Perfect fit from rod to floor

• Proportional fullness and volume

• Cohesive design that enhances your décor

• Wide range of header styles for different aesthetics

Plus, with affordable custom window treatments, you no longer have to choose between luxury and price.

 What Curtain Size Is Best for Large Windows?

Tip: With EZcurtain, you only need to measure your rod width. For pleated drapes, we handle fullness automatically for you—so the 120" rod = 120" total width you order. No extra calculations!

 Design Tips for Curtains in Large Living Rooms

• Use Long Curtains to Elevate the Space
  Mount your curtain rod 4–6 inches above the window frame for visual height.

• Choose the Right Header Style
  For formal living rooms, triple pinch pleat or inverted box pleat offers tailored elegance. For casual-modern vibes, try soft top or grommet curtains.

• Opt for Layered Window Treatments
  Pair sheer curtains behind your drapes to filter light during the day while maintaining privacy.

• Use Tiebacks or Holdbacks
  Especially with wide windows, tiebacks help structure the flow of fabric for a clean appearance.
