It is a difficult choice to choose curtains to match the color of the walls or furniture in the room. You can choose for a long time and then buy what you like most in the store.

A set of simple rules can put an end to painful thoughts. It turns out that choosing the color of curtains is much easier than it seems.

1. Walls

The simplest option is to choose the color of the walls. In this case, the textile continues the walls and does not divide the space into parts. The shades can change, which also changes the perception of the interior.

2. Neutral approach

Modern interiors are often decorated in gray and beige. It is not difficult to choose neutral shades. In such a room, you can relax more easily, while contrasting curtains will create a background or noise.

3. Items

You can combine the color of the curtains with the carpet, textiles or other interior item. But in this case, you should exclude a complete combination of colors and shades.

4. Contrast

This technique is used when it is necessary to focus attention or highlight a window against the general background. In this case, it is advisable to exclude flashy colors. You can opt for muted monotone products, as well as a three-color design, when curtains match the walls, furniture and other decor.

5. Prints

This is a difficult option. You need to choose a pattern on the curtains that would match the pattern on the wallpaper at least. The pattern should be simpler.

It is better not to use national ornaments in this case.
