Rooster Kitchen Curtains
If you want your kitchen to feel like home then there is nothing like a country style kitchen and kitchen curtains to do the trick. There is something about country style rooms which simply makes us feel comfortable and perfectly at home. When sourcing curtains for your room you will come across many with a country or farmyard theme including all kinds of flowers, fruit, vegetables and animals. Rooster kitchen curtains are particularly popular and with good reason.
A rooster design for your curtains, like the ones pictured below, is great because they add a touch of color to your curtains as well as fitting in with the country theme. These colors go particularly well with the types of colors and materials often used in a country or farmhouse kitchen such cream, terracotta and wood.
Rooster curtains remind us of sunny mornings and food fresh from the farm, so that even if you don’t spend all day baking delicious cakes and pies, they create the kind of atmosphere where you feel that you could! Perhaps those roosters will even inspire you!
Of course you don’t have to stop with your curtains, you can continue the rooster theme in other items in your kitchen including table cloths, chair seat pads, tea towels and wall paper and you can even buy china with a rooster pattern. Although you don’t want to overdo it, one or two items will add just the right decorative touch to your country kitchen and keep your theme coherent.
When buying any type of kitchen curtains make sure they are easily washable and good quality. You don’t want your rooster curtains to fade away after a few times in the washing machine and have to be replaced especially if you have decorated your whole kitchen around the theme.

Country Kitchen Curtains
If there’s one style of room that will really suffer for lack of kitchen curtains it’s a country style kitchen. Whereas contemporary kitchens with their shiny stainless steel surfaces and high gloss doors look fantastic with sleek blinds, something so simple will not do justice to a kitchen which is meant to be the heart of the country home (or at least look as if it is).
If you are looking for country kitchen curtains, don’t worry about finding what you need. You will be spoiled for choice as most designs of curtains for the kitchen are suitable for this style of room and they are the easiest type to find. Typical kitchen curtain fabric is adorned with all sorts of images that shout “country”.
You will find apple kitchen curtains which remind you of orchards and over-filled fruit bowls and you can find them to tone in with every color from the bright green granny smiths type apples which go with fresh bright shades to more rustic colors which are great with a natural colored room and wooden units.
Rooster kitchen curtains may not be for you but there's plenty of choice
You will find rooster kitchen curtains which remind you of a country farm yard and are very effective at extending the country theme. These are generally in natural and rustic colors too – great with your wooden cabinets and cream color scheme.
If you prefer curtains without images of fruit and farmyard you can evoke a country feeling by using very simple floral fabrics. Gingham kitchen curtains are a great choice too for this kind of kitchen.
If you prefer, you can make your own curtains with any suitable fabric. You should find many prints and patterns which will be suitable including the typical country farmyard and fruit images. Just make sure that the fabric you choose is washable. (Kitchen curtains attract grease and dirt from the steamy atmosphere of the kitchen and will need frequent laundering). Also wash and press the fabric before you make up the curtains. Cotton fabrics which are most suitable for kitchen curtains may be subject to shrinkage of up to 10%. If you wash the fabric (and any lining fabric you will use) future shrinkage will not cause a problem.
Although ruffled curtains and simple swag valances lend themselves well to the country look, do remember the requirement for frequent laundering and keep things fairly simple whether you make or buy your curtains.
One simple style of curtain suitable for the kitchen is the cafe style. Cafe curtains cover the lower half of the window allowing you to easily look out and enjoy a lot of natural light while affording you quite a bit of privacy. For a country kitchen choose a simple gingham or chintz floral fabric to stay in keeping with the theme. Large pictures of farmyard animals, sunflowers and fruit bowls don’t work so well with cafe style curtains.
As for colors, it is mainly natural tones which suit country kitchens – all shades of cream, green and yellow can work well depending on the color of your walls and cabinets. Yellow, I think, is especially good in a kitchen as it is found in every shade in nature from bright lemon yellow to dark mustard. My bright yellow kitchen curtains always remind me of sunshine and summer even on the blackest winter day in my north facing kitchen.
