Satin nickel curtain rods

One of the things we might not think about until it’s time to add the finishing touch to a window dressing is what style of curtain rod we need. A couple of things to consider are: do you want a rod that has a classic ball end or do you want to go with one that has a flute style end piece? Also, if you are unsure of your windows width, you might want to buy a telescopic rod in case you need the extra length. The finish is also something that needs to be thought about. A satin nickel curtain rod may be exactly the look you need rather than a shiny chrome rod that might not fit with the overall aesthetic.
