A person has always sought to create an atmosphere of comfort in the place where he lives, so at all times he tried, if possible, to improve the interior of his home. The easiest way to do this is to hang curtains on the windows and drape wall defects.
All these techniques are known to people from prehistoric times when they covered the entrance to the cave with a curtain from the skin of a mammoth.
If he does not have many problems with curtains, then the choice of curtains, often, is not that he is at a dead end, but makes you think about.
Of course, our contemporary, before going to the store, will revise many different photos for curtains on the Internet, which, undoubtedly, will help him with the choice of the appearance of these products.
However, in addition to the appearance of the curtains, they also differ in functional features. Although these differences are not great, they must still be taken into account.
At the place of fastening, they are divided into ceiling and wall. Ceiling curtains are attached directly to the ceiling, they are more suitable for small rooms, as they allow you to increase their area, at least visually.
Since the curtains that are supported by such curtains can close very large areas from the ceiling to the floor, these curtains can be used to mask wall defects.
The curtains are simply indispensable for the ceiling for curtains covering highly located windows. Wall curtains are attached to the wall, which affects their functional features.
Since they are fixed on the wall, they should be given preference in cases where there are stretch ceilings in the house. Among their other advantages, high strength and ability to withstand weight, practically any curtains can be called high.
In addition, such cornices Easily mounted and work on their attitude even to one person who does not have special professional skills. Wall curtains can be single -row, two -row and even three -row.
One-row curtains are preferred by people who curtain their windows with one curtains, without using something else for this purpose. Spiritual curtains are chosen by those who, along with ordinary curtains, hang something else on the windows, such as tulle.
Three -row cornices allow you to ensure tightly lingering windows, reliably covering everything that happens behind these curtains from prying eyes.
Usually, getting up in the morning, they pull dense curtains, leaving the untouched tulle, which freely passes the sun's rays into the room, and at the same time, provides some renewal of the interior of the room.
Both ceiling and wall cornices come in several types. The following types of curtains for curtains: round; profile; string; baguette.
A modern person has, in this regard, much more opportunities. He just goes to the store buys curtains and curtains there, on which they can be hung.
Round curtains are something in the form of a tap pipe, at both ends of which limiters are installed, not allowing the curtains to slip from it.
They are made of light metals, for example, from aluminum, plastic or wood. They hold the curtains well, provide light sliding when closing and opening the curtains.
Profile curtains got their name, due to the fact that plastic and metal profiles are used as blanks for their manufacture.
They look, as a rule, solid and rich, therefore they are used to decorate the interior of living rooms. Profile curtains can be not only straight, but also complex geometric shape, so they are also mounted where curved cornices are required.
String curtains, although they are very popular, but, as a rule, do not last long, since the curtains on them tend to sag, which hopelessly spoils the appearance of the entire room.
Therefore, they are used as a temporary option and try to replace at the first signs of sagging.
Baguette curtains are made in the form of a wooden bar. Its distinctive feature is that after installation on it it is impossible to notice a single fastener element.
The range of these products is unusually wide, which serves as the main reason that baguette curtains are most often used where the original decorative design of the room is required.
Choosing modern curtains for curtains, it is necessary to be guided not only by their purely utilitarian purpose, but also to what aesthetic effect they will have on people. Therefore, they should not be knocked out of the common ensemble and harmoniously fit into the interior of the room. If the room contains the simplest furniture, and a cheap linoleum is on the floor, it is hardly worth it to bring dissonance into it, mounting curtains covered with gilding over the windows of the curtains. It’s quite another matter if the room is entirely decorated in a classic style, then the magnificent wooden curtains covered with gilding will be just to the place.
In order for the windows to look stylish, the curtains should be somewhat wider than the windows, fifty, sixty centimeters. This circumstance may be especially important in cases where it is about plastic windows.
