This may seem a terribly difficult thing - but this article will definitely help you with the choice.

Features

To begin with, it is necessary to determine what role the curtains will play in your kitchen. If a purely decorative role, then, in principle, it is expensive and not to think when they are selected - there will be enough visual characteristics, like color and design.

Another thing is if the curtains should carry some practical benefit. For example, protect against bright light or shocking. In this case, the selection of curtains should be approached with full responsibility. Curtains can help visually adjust any room, hide decorative disadvantages of the kitchen or dining room including.

Stoys and samples

Curtains in the kitchen is very difficult to choose. It is necessary to take into account the shape of the window, and the interior of the room, and color gamut. But, however, the curtains themselves are the most important, including their style. The ideal option is a combination of transparent light tissues with heavy curtains or porters and about alone and shades.

• Curtains Plears and Blinds. It is a modern and original option for the kitchen, because such blinds do not occupy a lot of space and look very carefully, concise. Blinds may not be just monophonic, but also other different shades, with or without prints. They hold back sunlight and easily adjustable.

Japanese curtains can be easily called relatives blinds, because they are more dense curtains with fabric panels. Most often, blinds, pls and Japanese curtains are presented in size to the windowsill.

• Rollers- These are light kitchen structures to protect against light. They are interesting in that they are completely non-addictive in care and are suitable even for the smallest kitchenettes. In the case of rollers, it is very easy to play with color and material, as well as texture. There are several varieties of roller roller - long, with a cassette (dust protection), rolled rollers on brackets, double frame, mini-rolled rolling agents, corner.

• Curtains for windows with a bay - Erkery curtains, - Improve the light lighting. After all, the Erker is a protruding part of the wall, rectangular or round; It often "eats" part of the world.

• Arch- Interesting designer solutionAs in the case of the window and the doorway. The form itself stands out, and it is impossible to miss the opportunity to some more embellish. The curtains on the arch can be one way (one-sided), threads or grid (the so-called "noodle"), asymmetric, or a single web. If you want to add luxury - choose curtains with lambrequin, it will look very expensive and gorgeous.

• There is also a special style curtain - "Day Night". This is usually rolled curtains consisting of transparent (grid) and dense tissue alternating bands, which allows you to adjust the doses of light. Very similar to the blinds, but only here you can completely darken the window, only installing dense strips next to one chain movement.

Colors and prints

When choosing a curtain, you need to consider both the individual color preferences of households and some psychological aspects. Color affects the mood of man, his psycho-emotional state. To choose from the color of any subject of the interior, it is necessary to take responsibly - and the curtains including.

For example, often too bright colors can simply cut the eyes, strain - such curtains will turn the kitchen not in the corner of comfort and comfort, but in a small branch of hell in your apartment. Therefore, we advise you very carefully refer to the characteristics of colors. In a color circle, all colors can be divided into two groups: bright warm and calmer cold. The first is mostly red, orange, yellow shades, and the latter - blue, green, purple and many derivatives. We will analyze the most popular.

Yellow considers the color of happiness - the sun, fun, but his large amount can strain your eyes. Yellow - an excellent option for those who think extraordinary; The only thing, yellow should not be too bright. Curtains of some muffled yellow shade will be configured to a positive way and raise the mood.

To the red curtains, like black, should be taken care of caution. You can choose curtains with inclusions of any of these shades, but you should not take a purely red or purely black fabric. As experts say, the abundance of these colors in the interior can lead to excessive anxiety and nervous excitation, and the black color, besides, "eats" solar color. However, it is precisely red in the right dosages to give you confidence in yourself, set up on an optimistic way and give energy. The main thing is that it was a bit. As for the advantages of black curtains, it is undoubtedly concise.

The combination of black and white has always been in fashion, as well as completely accurately look stylish in any kitchen. It will be very interesting to lookto patterns of any other color on a black background - as on white, by the way. White color visually adds light, expand the room. It is associated with peace and purity, energy. If you are in doubt, do not know, the curtains are what color choose - take purely white or with patterns, two-color with the presence of white.

If you are a lover of extraordinary solutions in the interior, look at purple, blue, lilac, turquoise or salad colors. They will perfectly complement the kitchen made in calm cold colors. These colors are based on various mixesters of blue and green among themselves, which means that calm, serenity and harmony. These are ideal options for residents of a noisy megalopolis.

But burgundy curtains that combine the red and calm, noble brown in their pure and calm, noble brown, will become the perfect option for work kitchen. Color sets up a working way and helps to focus. The same applies to the brown color - the only thing that we are talking about brown curtains, you should give the choice towards light brown shades, the dark should be used with caution. Brown curtains can be a real rawness of the room.

Beige or gray curtains will look very interesting. They are calm and peaceful, perfectly skip light and do not strain their eyes. And there is a huge set of gray and at all - pearl, ash, silver ...

Excellent solution There will be a curtains of two colors. They will not let you get bored, and if you choose any two favorite colors, then you can raise your mood at all. But remember - it is best to combine warm colors with warm, and cold, respectively, with cold. For example, salad curtains with green curtains.

If you are fans of various prints and patterns, then pay attention to the cage - it is always relevant and looks very carefully both on large windows and on the windows of a small size. The same applies to the straight pattern - vertical or horizontal, it is concise and stylish. Vertical strips visually lengthened windows, and horizontal - on the contrary, make a little wider. The pattern in the flower will suit lovers, so to speak, grandmother's classics - everyone in childhood is probably hanging curtains with flowers, small or large. Curtains with a print visually will increase the room.

Fabrics

A very important role in choosing the curtains plays fabric from which they are made. She, in the first place, determines the tactile sensations (softly rigidly, nice-unpleasant to touch). Secondly, and mainly, is a guarantee that the curtains will not break a week after the "socks" or during the next washing. To the selection of fabrics, it is necessary to take no less serious than color - perhaps even more serious. The fabric should keep shape, not to cause difficulties when washing or cleaning.

As a rule, curtains sew from organza, flax, veil, grid, lace, from chiffon, patchwork. The most original buyers choose knitted or nitietic. We will analyze each option separately.

If we are talking about designing a kitchen, then you should forget about the velvet, passage and tapestry. It is completely impractical for dinner fabrics, they are heavy and easily dirty, respectively, poorly erased. Although tapestry and velvet are exquisite and, undoubtedly, beautiful tissues, they are better hanging in the bedroom, library or living room. Silk in the kitchen can also look a little not relevant and completely impractical.

Organza. This is a translucent blurry fabric. It is perfectly suitable for premises in which you need to add light. Moreover, the organza has a low cost and a huge color palette, which makes it more than affordable for all population layers. But with the time of the Organza losing its elasticity and becomes less durable. Along with the Organship, an excellent option for curtains in the kitchen will be satin. This is a fabric where cotton or silk threads are tightly intertwined, have a characteristic shine.

There is another tissue, very similar to the properties on the organza, but it is a slightly tight of it - this is a veil. The curtains from the veil are pleasantly overflowing in the sun. They are weightless and easy, and are suitable for design windows both in premises and homemade kitchers.

Curtains from Atlasadd luxury room. This is a cloth with a smooth shiny or semi-platter. Despite the fact that they are an excellent option for the living room or bedroom, in the kitchen, may be like everyone.

Such a word as "Tulle" familiar to us all. As a rule, Tulle often goes an addition to the curtains of more dense tissue, but it is also used in solo. Tulle is a thin transparent fabric, sometimes with a pattern. Tulle Curtains are an excellent addition to the interior, including the kitchen interior.

Linen fabrics - The most suitable for real custodians of nature, because the material is 100% flax. Linen curtains look at light interiorWell, in dark help to create an interesting focus on the windows. However, flax does not tolerate bright decor - In combination with him, linen curtains look a little dying. Despite all the advantages, Lyon is quite capricious. Natural flax, like cotton, can not be washed in hot water Or bleach. They need to be stroke immediately after washing, otherwise they will sit down.

Curtains from cotton- Excellent alternative to linen curtains, because in terms of quality, properties and composition they are in many ways similar. Cotton is also easily painted, and therefore cotton curtains can be found in different shades and prints. It has excellent absorbing abilities and indispensable in warm time, very soft to the touch. Such curtains are quite practical and racks for wear, and the most "strong" is considered to be a merserized cotton.

Curtains from chiffon will add tranquility and pacification.

For lovers of something more interesting exist Lace curtains. They add to the premises of some comfort, the feeling of "softness" and protectedness. Curtains are made both from a solid lace cloth and from its fragments. Lace is easily combined with some translucent or transparent tissues - tulle or veil, for example.

There are also several varieties of lace, differing from each other in the main pattern:

1. Brabant- lace with relief, as a rule, the protruding ornament;
2. Torchon- coarse weaving, machine;
3. Chantilly- the opposite of Torschon, elegant silk weaving;
4. Guipure- the most famous variety of weaving, characterized by transparency and neat patterns;
5. Alançon- Lace flowers or leaves on the grid.

Despite the seeming lightness, the thread curtains can not be considered purely decorative. Otherwise, they can be called Kiememi, and for the first time they appeared in the countries of the Ancient East. Yes, the rows of threads look not so seriously, but, in fact, are simply indispensable in hot time, because the air is perfectly passed and create a pleasant coolness. If you live in a hot or warm climate, then the thread curtains are just for you - and they can also be used in gazebos or in the country.

Curtains from the grid They are an excellent option for the warm time of the year, because it is then that the problem of ventilation is never relevant. The grid can be a large or small, and the perfect place for curtains from the grid is a balcony or a huge kitchen window. And for ethnic interiors, this is an indispensable detail of the interior.

So we got to the most extraordinary and popular fabric recently, and, more precisely, the technique of sewing curtains. This is Pachkor. FROM english word Patchwork is translated as "work with flaps." Often, the blankets and the plaids are drawn up in the technique of combining flaps, but the curtains have not exceeded. The most striking is that the curtains in the style of Patchwork can be done own handsAnd buy already ready to buy, and the models have a huge amount. Most often, such curtains are used in oriental or lungs, weightless interiors.

When choosing fabric for curtains, you should also pay attention to some patterns:

1. If your kitchenette is small, choose and, accordingly, small, neat curtains - long and massive curtains are only weighing the room.
2. If your windows are located on the sunny side, pick up the curtains for them from tight fabric - in order for hot sunny days they did not let the light. The shadow side, hide with more light fabrics passing the sun's rays.
3. Note that some fabrics have the properties to shine. For example, for people living on the first floors, it is better to choose dense curtains that are neglected even with light-on. If you live on the top floor and you have no neighbors around the windows, then you may not deny yourself in light tissues.
4. Before buying, remove the slope to the light to see how the fabric looks with different lighting. Fabric, again, should not shine; Look at it from afar, under different angles. Take cloth from one roll to eliminate the possibility of the slightest difference in shades.
5. Caring for curtains - care for the cloth from which they are made. The fabric should not accumulate dust, dirt and odors, but it should be easily stitched - especially in the case of home washing. It is desirable that they do not sit down and do not rummage, easily stroked. If you, of course, have the opportunity to give curtains into a dry cleaning, then this item can be skipped - however, always remember that not all spots and smells are easy to remove.

How to choose the right window

Curtains must approach the interior of the room - this is first. Must be combined with colors, styles, possibly location with other objects, but you can not forget about such an important momentlike the window itself. The windows are of different shapes and types, and sometimes it is difficult to choose the ideal curtains. First of all, it is worth declaring what you have a window. Make it very simple - to look around, what form it is, and measure the dimensions.

For example, you should not choose massive curtains on a small window - they will "eat" even more space and visually reduce the window, the light will be cut, which is so few. On the big window Suitable as heavy curtains - even with the canopy, both neat elegant. It all depends on the way your kitchen is stylized.

Rectangular windows are the most unprinable. Most often in old or new buildings, the windows of a slightly elongated square, and you may already know that no particular effort is required to pick up the curtains on the rectangular window. You can select only one aspect - if the window is slightly more in height than in length, it is not worth it to visually lengthen the curtains. But you can slightly increase it in the width. It works and vice versa - located horizontally windows like when they are slightly lifted due to the length of the curtains. Make it is completely simple - most often it turns out at all.

For low ceiling kitchens, it is worth choosing curtains in a horizontal or vertical strip - it visually lifts the ceiling. For huge premises, choose the dark tones of the curtains - they will make the room slightly less and add comfort, make the situation more comfortable and harmonious.

Curtains for giving should be light - and appearance, and in size. Leave the volumetric ruffles for the hall, living room or bedroom in a huge megalopolis.

Also on nature is relevant such a moment as protection against insects - mosquitoes, mosquitoes, as well as strong wind or sun.

If there is a gazebo or veranda, it will be appropriate to stop your choice on moisture-repellent or waterproof fabric - in case of rain it will be just by the way.

For bright kitchens are suitable as dark as light tones of the curtain. It all depends on your personal preferences and design design.
