The curtains in the living room are selected especially carefully - in this room the residents spend a lot of time, because it should be as comfortable as possible. As an addition to curtains, tulle is often purchased for the hall - it not only decorates the room, but also hides those present from prying eyes, without interfering with the penetration of sunlight.
It’s not always easy to choose the perfect drapery for the window - someone will be satisfied with the ordinary snow-white tulle, while the rest will try to make the design unique. Curtains in the hall are selected by length, width, color, style, material of manufacture.Placement of curtains will be different in living rooms with and without balconies, in rooms with panoramic or ordinary windows, bay windows, niches, attics. Tulle is sewn in different ways - there are straight, uncomplicated, plain colors, elegant fashionable novelties, mottled with multicolor.
The interior of the room, its lighting, also matters. If the windows are large and face south, southeast, the curtains are acquired in cold shades, with large, dense embroidered elements - flowers, ornaments, stripes. When the windows are narrow, very little street light enters the room, light tulle fabric, a warm color, devoid of decor or with a small, barely noticeable pattern is acquired.
They start choosing curtains when the interior style is already thought out. For minimalist interiors, fabrics such as a plain veil are used, for the east - several types of tulle at the same time. In the latter case, when you have to combine two or three or more types of fabric, it is important to carefully select the texture, pattern, so as not to get excessive "variegation", not to create a dissonance between the individual elements.
Since the residents are in the living room space for many hours a day, its design should not bother, annoy. It is desirable that the atmosphere is pleasant to each of the households.
Length selection
The length of the tulle is different, the hall is acquired:
short - up to the windowsill. Ideal for the style of Provence, country, environmental, as well as cramped rooms. In spacious rooms, such a solution looks poor. This is the best option for horizontal windows located in a niche, especially if there are no radiators under them. In the latter case, the place below the window is decorated with patterns, bright murals, pictures;
normal (medium) - reaches the floor without touching it, is used most often. The fabric should completely cover the battery, if present, should not be too short, “shot down”.For panoramic windows, this decor is also suitable;
long - folds to the floor. Suitable for apartments where there are no small children, elderly people, active pets that can get entangled in the curtain, get injured or break it. Such curtains look good in arches, give comfort to large rooms, make small ones stylish.
For rooms with a balcony door, the combined option is allowed: a short tulle above the window itself, a separate long canvas - above the balcony exit
Color
The coloristic decision directly depends on the interior style of the room. Allowed almost any option - monochrome, colorful, with gradient transitions. Color is matched to dense curtains, if present, carpets, other room textiles, less often - tulle is a bright accent. Popular options:
snow-white;
agate gray;
saffron yellow;
amethyst;
fuchsia;
turquoise;
medium pink;
herbal;
pale green;
amber;
lilac;
bronze;
yellow orange;
gray;
pearl;
light green;
reddish beige.
With or without curtains
Most often, tulle is an addition to dense curtains, but by no means always - its multi-layered options provide good protection from street light. A simple, easy option is used in the interiors of the loft, where the curtains will be "off topic", minimalistic, Japanese interiors will also not "tolerate" unnecessary. Modern fashion provides for density curtains of varying density, the combination of which with each other creates a unique, unique appearance.
When the pattern on the thick curtains is very complex, there is colorful embroidery, many printed prints, volumetric elements, then the tulle is acquired in plain color or with a paler, smaller pattern, partially or fully repeating the curtain. It is unacceptable to overload the window opening with unnecessary elements.
Materials
There are a lot of modern “tulle fabrics”.These are chiffon and organza, veil and mesh, cambric and jacquard. All of them differ externally, in strength, sun-protection properties, and possibilities of use in the interior. The structure of the materials varies greatly - it is matte and shiny, transparent and more dense, lace, embroidered, patterned fabrics. The choice of material depends on the design of the room, its area.
Jacquard
Jacquard tulle is the most difficult material for sewing window draperies. Its individual threads are different in color, thickness, texture, the finished fabric comes out in relief, multicolor, dramatically different from other options. The curtains themselves look wonderful, luxurious, but are expensive. The most harmonious jacquard looks in the classical style, baroque, rococo, oriental.
Chiffon
Chiffon is a gorgeous fabric that looks expensive, although it has an average cost. This textile has a complex relief, formed due to the tight plexus of crepe threads. Chiffon is very slippery, difficult to process material - when sewing, processing edges, it pours heavily, moreover, it does not differ in durability.
Batiste
Batiste refers to synthetic materials. It is made of fibers tightly twisted together, therefore it keeps its shape perfectly. The product comes out very thin, almost transparent, perfectly transmitting light, because it is usually used in conjunction with more dense draperies.
Grid
Tulle net is a very popular, fashionable version of window decoration for the living room. The item looks elegant, usually without requiring additional decoration. The mesh is made of the finest synthetic threads, therefore it collects dust heavily, which is unacceptable for allergy sufferers, as well as those who find it difficult to wash the curtain often.
Organza
Organza is made of polyester, it is very translucent, airy material. Less commonly, there are silk, viscose threads in the composition, but such drapery is many times more expensive.The main disadvantage of the item is poor air permeability, which is easy to feel if the curtain is multi-layered. The advantages include the fact that the material is well washed, dries quickly.
Veil
Veil tulle - dense, durable, wear-resistant, softer than organza. It practically does not collect dust, therefore it does not require frequent washing. The curtain from the veil is often made out with all kinds of drawings, drapes perfectly, and its density depends on the size, the total number of ornaments on the surface. The item is used in many modern interiors, as the color scheme is offered the most diverse.
Linen
Natural linen fabrics are now at the peak of popularity. They are environmentally friendly, do not cause allergies, and synthetic components are added relatively rarely. Such draperies maintain a healthy microclimate in the room, have sufficient transparency. The disadvantages include the strong creasing of the material, the difficulty of ironing. It is almost impossible to color the linen in a bright color, because the draperies are left natural, gray-beige, and pastel colors — peach, pale green, yellow-pink, etc. — are less commonly used. Suitable interiors are country, Provence, rustic, ethnic.
Tulle and style
Tulle curtains can be used in almost any of the existing interior styles. This is a classic and minimalism, oriental and antique, Art Deco and modern, high-tech and country, Provence and Rococo, Baroque and Gothic. Transparent draperies are completely inappropriate in the styles of brutalism, industrial, techno. It is necessary to select them according to all important parameters in order to withstand the style as much as possible.
Oriental
Oriental tulle curtains are made in two versions:
Arabic - patterned tulle fabrics are used, decorated with ornaments like "Indian cucumber", complementing the dense bright "night" curtains. The room is literally "drowning" in the tissues.Multicolor is allowed here, as well as complex weaving, an abundance of finely embroidered patterns. Primary colors - red, blue, gold. Layering, “rich” decorations are welcome;
Japanese - very minimalistic, unobtrusive. Dense curtains are absent here, rhombuses, “flies” are allowed from the ornaments, less often plant patterns a la “blooming sakura” or textile imitation of a reed mat. Acceptable tones are white, beige, light orange, cream.
Classic
Classical tulle is usually combined with dense, heavy curtains. Its color is white or cream, often decorated with golden, silver embroidery or a completely plain version. The material is selected relatively dense. In classics, they usually follow traditions, because excessively short curtains are unacceptable here. Curtains "on the floor" make the room higher, create a real "palace" design. Draperies are selected as voluminous as possible, two-, three-layer, decorated with tassels, lambrequins, ruffles, and other similar decor, which have been “in trend” for many years in a row and do not give up their positions. A popular pattern is Damask, as well as stripes of meanders in the upper, lower part.
Modern
The ideal option is the most ordinary, uncomplicated tulle, which has a bit of lurex in its composition. Draperies here most often “flow” from the ceiling, as if they are a “window cover”, but another curtain is almost always fixed on the side - thick or tulle. A certain amount of chaos is welcome - bright, original combinations are used here without restrictions. Patterns on the fabric are made large, clear - small, slurred violate the dynamics of style. Suitable decor - hard lambrequins, satin ribbons, pickups, cords with tassels, and other unusual elements.
Art Deco
The curtains here are luxurious or relatively modest, decorated with "knots", floral patterns or geometric shapes.Variegated options are found, intricate folds are also acceptable. Tulle for such interiors is usually sewn to order in the studio or with your own hands. Window decoration is deliberately asymmetric; at the same time, two or more colors are used.
Minimalism
Minimalistic decor has virtually no folds, completely covers the entire wall, is made of a veil or organza. It is flat, monophonic, ideally - suspended under the ceiling itself or "streams" from the ceiling niche. Small patterns, numerous textured, intricate details, halftones and gradients are unacceptable. The design is as calm as possible, the colors are black, white, sometimes gray. Dense curtains are not needed here, but it is permissible to arrange tulle and blinds, roller blinds with a cassette mechanism and mounted directly on the window frame.
Country
In the "rustic" style, light draperies of warm, as if slightly faded, shades are welcome. Preferred animals, plant prints (embroidered, printed), but the most popular cell. The materials used are mainly natural - chintz, linen. Curtains are cut out in a special way - the canvas is divided into two halves of the same size, their inner corners are sometimes rounded, and a lambrequin is added at the top. Large textile flowers made of the same material as the curtain itself are suitable as decor.
High tech
High-tech style in most cases completely dispenses with draperies, but if they are present, the most suitable colors are silver, steel, dark blue, black. This is the most modern style, filled with rhythm, freedom, high technology, because the curtain fabrics used in it should not cause trouble, clutter up the space. Design does not make it too bright - numerous contrasts are prohibited.The materials used are smooth, they add metallic, silver, gold or “bronze-like” strings, and 3D printing is often used as decor.
Gothic
Gothic tulle - mostly dark, very mysterious. In the design there are many vertical lines, direct lambrequins, simple geometric shapes. Basically, the draperies are monophonic, relatively dense, but an addition in the form of a contrasting mesh is quite acceptable. Preferred materials - jacquard, chiffon, occasionally used mesh. It is better to choose a cornice heavy, carved, wooden, suitable colors - lilac, dark blue, black, rich burgundy.
Rococo
Rococo stylistics provides for the most pompous, “sophisticated” draperies, replete with folds, ruffles, frills, textured embroidery. Such window decor looks luxurious, “rich”, fabrics are selected the highest quality, expensive. The haughty design is obtained from silk, jacquard fabrics, using tapestry, velvet as dense curtains. Volumetric lambrequins are also an integral element of the Rococo style. Gold, silver threads permeate the material in abundance, they embroider intricate patterns, in such tones brushes, tricks are performed.
Shabby chic
In this design of tulle, as well as more dense textiles, a huge amount is used. Draperies are voluminous, difficult to stack, reach the floor, spreading in folds on the floor. All existing edges are decorated with lace, frills, ryushechki, roses. In most cases, the color scheme is chosen pastel - white-pink, pale blue, pale violet, but more vivid, but not "flashy" tones are acceptable.
The cornice in this interior is made invisible, since the main attention is drawn to textiles.
How to hang
Suspending tulle canvases is easy to do in a couple of minutes, if an acceptable method is chosen, all fastenings, accessories are ready, and the folds (if planned) are laid in advance. There are several accommodation options, they depend on the type of cornice used:
"Pipe" - the suspension of the canvas is made on the rings, less often - eyelets. This is the most reliable, popular option;
string cornice - an element almost invisible from the side that easily holds one, two or three canvases at the same time;
profile - the design consists of several rows, hooks, clips, decorative clothespins are used as fasteners.
To fix the tulle fabric on the cornice, different methods are used:
with the help of a drawstring - the finished drapery is “customized” on one side. After the drawstring is neatly attached to it, then - a cornice-pipe is threaded, which becomes almost invisible;
on hooks - translucent plastic hooks or thin metal ones are sewn to the upper part of the fabric. Rings are put on a cornice tube, hooks cling to them;
with the use of clips - on the profile curtain rod, the curtains are fixed in this way. The option is suitable exclusively for thin, airy, single-layer fabrics;
on grommets - holes are cut on top of the canvas into which grommet rings are inserted of a suitable diameter. Through them passes the cornice itself.
One of the easiest ways to fasten a tulle curtain is to sew a braid into it, for which the canvas is hooked to a ceiling, wall suspension. Previously, the curtain is adjusted in width, for this two rows of strong threads are sewn along the upper edge (sometimes the item is sold immediately with them), which must be carefully pulled to one side and tied to a knot. Next, the curtain ribbon is pulled together so that it matches the width of the cornice as much as possible, the tulle itself is aligned, wrinkles are straightened, the threads on the other side of the drapery are also tied.Now the curtain is hung on the ledge, checking that it turns out smoothly, beautifully.
Some lovers use a pair of small decorative magnets to hang a thin curtain. The canvas is elementarily thrown through the bar, and on both sides of it, opposite each other, magnets are “glued”. Such a curtain is easy to remove at any time, it is single-layer or double-layer.
Clips, cords, rings, strands of beads, metal, textile hooks are used as decorative, functional fittings.
Drapery Choice
Professional designers study for a long time to masterfully lay any folds with bare hands. The fabric is pre-stitched so that the likelihood of breaking the shape of the assemblies is minimized. The finished "design" looks beautiful, and the folds are securely laid and do not collapse for a long time during operation.
The peculiarity of the manual design is that if the same panel is folded differently, it will look as if the curtain were replaced. The use of curtain tapes made of dense, “rare” textile or mesh greatly simplifies decoration.
Sew it from the wrong side, pulling it so that the vertical folds come out, hang it on hooks, clips. Items are executed at regular intervals. The more textured, deeper the folds are supposed, the longer, relative to the cornice, a piece of fabric is taken. If for the Japanese style, minimalism, where there are almost no folds, the curtain width exceeds the length of the cornice by only 7-10%, then up to 30% of the canvas is added to the country interiors, Scandinavian. In luxurious styles, such as Rococo, Baroque, renaissance fabrics require a lot - up to 300%, compared with the dimensions of the cornice.
The width of the braid is made different, with its help it is easy to arrange, highlight both the only small window in a cramped living room, and a number of panoramic designs.To beautifully drape the curtains, hooks are used that easily hold the draperies from below, in the middle, closer to the top. They lay the tulle symmetrically or asymmetrically, individual options are placed in the center, forming a kind of “inverted dome” - if there are more than two canvases. If two or more tulle layers are used at the same time, then one is left freely hanging or tightly pulled with weighting materials, the rest are fixed in different ways.
Aerial horizontal creases are also quite popular. They are suitable for small windows, as well as in cases with panoramic windows, as well as rooms with a balcony. Such lifting structures are mounted on decorative loops, a variety of cords.
The main ways to drape a tulle with your own hands using magnets:
classic “waves” - the inner edge of the curtain is assembled manually, form a sagging part, the dimensions of which are chosen so that it looks beautiful. The most harmonious option is when the ratio of the width and height of the fold is approximately 1 to 0.6. The hanging piece of textile is fixed with magnets so that a wave comes out - usually the element is made in the middle of the curtain, as well as in the middle of its height;
double waves - performed in much the same way, but two waves are made (sometimes even three). From below, the sagging should be small, from above - one and a half to two times more volume;
upholstery of the bottom - used in cases where the curtains are very light, made of organza, veil, mesh. The cloth is wrapped around the middle of the bottom, raised to the desired level, fixed with magnets to form a W-shaped fold.
So that the drapery “kept its shape”, did not form unnecessary folds, weights are used, in the form of decorative strips sewn along the lower edge, filled with lead balls.
Additional decor
Tulle curtains are often decorated with a variety of decorative elements.This is colored or plain embroidery, photo printing, lace inserts from materials differing in texture, fringe, brushes, textile or metal pickups. Often metal threads and lurex are added to the tulle. Separate interior styles also allow for more voluminous decor - beads, rhinestones, threads from colored beads, butterflies, dragonflies, birds on pins or clips, fabric flowers, bows, elements on magnets.
Popular patterns:
plants;
raindrops;
damask patterns;
geometric ornaments;
cell and stripes;
zebra, leopard, tiger print.
A neat, unobtrusive combination of embroidery and photo printing is now also very popular.
