Mistakes when choosing curtains that will ruin the entire interior: everyone makes them

01.12.2023 13:02

Often designers advise choosing curtains after the fact, that is, after the renovation is finished. All because this is one of the important elements of decor.

There are several unforgivable mistakes that can ruin everything in the long run.

Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told how to choose curtains.

Mistake number one: fabric density

The first thing people pay attention to is the pattern or color of the curtains. In fact, you need to proceed from the density of the fabric so that the curtain can block sunlight or night light.

Mistake three: color

Firstly, you can't choose textiles in the same colour as the walls. There should be a difference of at least 1-2 tones.

Secondly, it is better not to use a pattern or ornament or to choose a minimal option. But it is even better to buy a single-color fabric.

Mistake three: lighting

For the bedroom, you need to choose thick curtains, and for other rooms, based on the purpose and conditions. If the windows face north or there are tall trees behind them, then you definitely need to refuse curtains.

Mistake number four: size

You can't skimp. Curtains should be selected by length and width. And by length with a reserve in case you have to put them aside after an unsuccessful wash.

The width of the curtains should be such that they cover the entire window opening, without any gaps or openings.

Mistake number five: tulle and curtains

Tulle and curtains should not overload the interior. This can happen if the curtains are made of the same density of fabric.
