How to choose curtains in the bedroom
The room for sleeping has a special role in the house. The bedroom suggests a slightly different atmosphere, more cozy and comfortable. And therefore, before you pick up the curtains in the bedroom, you must thoroughly consider the interior design. This approach will help to prevent mistakes in design and get the desired result.
Today there is a fairly large variety of variations of curtains for the bedroom. We should not think that it does not matter what the curtains will be in the room for sleeping. It depends on how the room will be perceived in general, and how comfortable and pleasant it will be to be in it. These products can have a purely functional purpose, as well as play the role of decoration in the interior of the room. To protect yourself during lunchtime and rest from bright sunlight, it is better to use thick curtains, such as drapes or curtains. And if it is necessary to partially muffle the flow of light, pastel-colored curtains made of lightweight fabrics will suffice.
When choosing fabrics, one should be guided by such an important factor as practicality, that is, what type of fabric, how difficult it is to care for it, and how to ensure a simple installation to the wall or ceiling. Nowadays, heavy curtains with bulk drapery are not in vogue, but on the contrary, it is desirable that the curtains were made of light fabrics, well tolerated in washing and did not need ironing. When choosing the type of fabric products plays an important role texture of the material.
Whatever the type of fabric, the curtains need to carefully care. They need to be cleaned from time to time with a vacuum cleaner, and during long-term use dry-clean or wash them carefully, following all recommendations for this type of fabric.
For what purpose do you need curtains?
When choosing curtains should achieve several basic goals.
First, you need to provide the room with a blackout, and for this you will need to purchase a product made of thick fabric: curtains, drapes, or thick roller blinds. You can check the density of the fabric in the store, for this it is enough to look through it against the bright light. However, it is unhealthy to constantly be in a semi-gloomy room, and this can negatively affect the emotional state, therefore there should be enough light in the bedroom during waking hours. To do this, use the combined version - curtains and tulle.
Secondly, the design features of the curtains should be considered. To fill the void of window space, use chiffon drapery. In this case, the room can look luxurious, and in it due to the thin fabric will be quite light. The eaves must be in harmony with the selected curtains, interior, and withstand the weight of all layers of fabric.
Oriental style in the bedroom involves a brass cornice and brocade curtains.
Strict classic requires wooden eaves with tips. At the same time dense heavy curtains with tassels will look decent. And the modern style is characterized by plastic cornices and curtains with ties.
Thirdly, it is important to remember that the well-chosen colors of the curtains in the bedroom create an atmosphere of coziness, comfort and contribute to a full sleep. The choice is to stop at the curtains of pastel, natural (green, brown shades) or muted tones (burgundy, purple) - natural colors soothe and help to relax.
Multilayer curtains with the use of fabrics of different shades, for example, a combination of white and beige, look impressive. Do not use the fabric of "poisonous" shades, as this can be annoying.
It is important to observe the combination of color design curtains with bedspreads, covers and capes.
For the bedroom, it is better not to use artificial fabrics, as they can cause allergies. But natural fabrics, such as velvet, flax, cotton or blended fabrics with a content of 70% cotton or flax, will be very useful.
The important moment at the choice of curtains is color. Now it is fashionable to use so-called environmental motifs in the design, for example, the motifs of flowers - roses, camomiles, peonies or leaves, as well as birds.
Beautifully look curtains, in which one edge hangs down along with chiffon flowing curtains. Even the coziness of the bedroom is facilitated by curtains in the form of an arch or with symmetrical cuts, as well as lambrequins or jabots.
Whatever the choice, the main thing is that the general view of the window helps to create the necessary conditions for a relaxing stay.
