About this deal
Bold, timeless and charming – long drapes become effortless focal points in any home. High-pitched ceilings and oversized windows find their perfect match in tall drapes that further accentuate the scale and height of the space. Although some people tend to prefer their curtains or drapes to float or hang just above the floor, others may prefer to experiment with a voluminous ‘pooling’ effect. Buying extra long 250cm curtains online is great if you like the look of your curtains or drapes ‘pooling’ on the floor. Pooling is when long curtains fall onto the floor instead of floating just before it. Pooled curtains or drapes can be a great design feature when executed correctly and could give your windows an opulent, well-finished and traditional look. Extra Long 250cm Curtains May Perform Better PUDDLE: Curtains in this style touch the floor and then go flowing, pooling together like a puddle on the floor. These are stitched to measure 2-18 inches more than floor length. The flowing trails are a style statement meant to accentuate the casual or formal appeal of the space. Which floor length curtains to buy of course also depends on the interior style you've already established in your home. A modern, minimal home benefits from light and airy extra long curtains such as grey, creme and white, whereas a more eclectic interior looks fantastic with extra long velvet curtains in dusty pink or teal.

The maintenance is also relatively easier because ‘floating’ drapes tend to catch floor dust to the minimum.
The longer the length, the more sumptuous the puddle, and the more striking, dramatic and opulent your drapery will be. Read more about how to pull off the ‘puddled’ look in our blog post here about Puddled Drapery Styling Ideas . Tips to Hang Your Extra Long Curtains
