Varieties and tulle

Tulle is distinguished by several parameters, each of which affects the illumination in the room and the overall appearance of the interior:

Tulle color: light, dark, color with prints.
Weight: Light organza, silk veil or heavier cambric.
Length: short curtain, long fabric with scalloped drapery or with a hem spread across the floor.

classic curtains — Classic curtains in the hall suggest their use not only in the style of classicism, but also to be the main one for others. This product is characterized by floor-length lengths of dense material, forming a wave-like texture. They are a great type for every room, and the choice of color will help create a certain effect in the room.

The option of heavy or dark fabrics allows less light to pass through and visually reduces the window. Models of light colors and made of light material, on the contrary, visually make the window more spacious and colder.

Tulle can be of different lengths: from a short curtain to half a window to long ones. Cascading curtains that gracefully spread across the floor and create a romantic atmosphere.

Advice. For a home where there are small children or animals, it is better to choose the length exactly to the floor. Otherwise, the curtain will often come off, as children will use it for their games, and animals, especially cats, to climb on it.

length of curtains — Classic curtains are one of the coziest options that go with any space.

How to choose tulle in the hall

The choice of tulle variety depends primarily on the method of application: it can be hung as an independent curtain or as an addition to the general ensemble of curtains.

If tulle curtains are chosen for the hall as an independent way of decorating a window, then much greater requirements are imposed on them. As a rule, this is how the window is designed in apartments on high floors or in office buildings. That is, in those rooms where the high transparency of the window in the dark will not cause discomfort. This method of window decoration is also suitable for rooms on the north and east sides, since there is traditionally less light here.

tulle in the hall — If you choose the right material, size and design, the room will only change for the better. For a classic style in the interior, curtains with ruffles and bows are best suited, and for a restrained one, it is recommended to choose curtains that are plain and with minimal waviness.

For this, the following fabric options are more suitable:

Thick fabrics.
Drapery options.
Models with additional decor.
Printed fabrics or dark fabrics.
The use of lambrequins made of thin materials.

Important! Additional decor will create an appropriate accent on the window and surprise with its unusual look.

tulle decor — To choose curtains for the hall, you need to pay attention to the entire interior as a whole, as well as separately: walls, furniture, area, illumination, window size, decor elements.

For panoramic windows, it is better to choose a transparent, colored monochromatic fabric that will emphasize the beautiful view.

In rooms on the south or west side, as well as for apartments below the 7th floor, a combination of transparent curtains with heavy curtains is more suitable. In strong sunlight or at night, blackout curtains will create the necessary coolness or privacy in the room. For such a set, tulle made of delicate, transparent fabric without additional decorative elements is suitable.

decor elements — If a small amount of sunlight enters the hall, it is strongly not recommended to choose dark curtains made of thick fabrics. Light-colored, slightly transparent products are best suited.

Design selection

Modern trends are leaning towards minimalism in the interior. Therefore, the use of only transparent fabrics is becoming more popular. It is fashionable to design a window with hidden tulle fasteners to the ceiling, when the cornice is installed much higher than the suspended ceiling. This design method is best suited for panoramic windows.

Advice. If the ceiling has already been installed and does not imply any changes, then the hidden fastening can be done by installing a massive ceiling curb around the entire perimeter of the room, which will also run along the line of the window.

hall design — If the living room is dark, it is recommended to choose warm colors of products, for example, peach, yellow, pink, milk and others. If the living room is on the sunny side and it is very hot in summer, it is better to choose cold colors: blue, green and others.

Another window design option is the choice of additional decorative elements for curtains:

Rhinestone threads.
Embroidery on tulle.
Prints.
Rope rain.
A combination of two sheer fabrics in different colors.
The use of ties for drapery.

curtains in the hall — If the windows are located quite low, this can be corrected by using lambrequins on classic curtains, they must be placed above the window opening - this visually raises the windows.

Important! Lush draperies are now outdated and out of fashion. Current trends in the selection of tulle: a lot of light, space and freedom. This perfectly demonstrates the photo for the audience what tulles are in fashion now.

The choice of design depends on the wallpaper and the overall interior of the room. For patterned wallpaper, plain tulle is suitable. On the other hand, with plain walls, a curtain with additional decorative elements: embroidery, rhinestones, threads will look beneficial.

tulle in the room — Some curtains do not require additional decorative details, as they themselves look luxurious, but sometimes tiebacks can be used, which will also add functionality.

Selection of style and size

When choosing the style of transparent curtains, they usually start from the general style of the room.

selection of tulle — The interior of the hall in a classic style is emphasized by lambrequins and tulle, but it is imperative to make a contrast of colors between them.

Important! Window decoration completes the interior of the room, so this decor option should be selected last. With the help of curtains, it is easy to correct flaws or mistakes in design in the overall design of the room.

For a classic interior, an option with rich drapery, lambrequin or ties is suitable.

drapery curtains — Just a few details and the decor of the entire window looks more elegant.

For a modern style, it is better to choose a simple sheer tulle with hidden fastening and moderate drapery. A combination with simple curtains or two colors of transparent material will be appropriate.

For hi-tech, a colored transparent fabric is suitable without additional elements.For this style, a short curtain without folds and draperies will look most beneficial.

stylish design — In order to complete the image of curtains, which are made in a classic style, they must be supplemented with various decorative elements: curtains, lambrequins, grabs.

Advice. The curtains are fairly easy to change. In this way, you can easily and inexpensively update the interior of the room. Such a novelty will easily refresh the interior even without large-scale renovations.

When calculating the size, it is necessary to start first of all from the width of the opening. The length of the cornice can be the entire wall, which will visually expand the room. Or the length of the cornice can be equal to the width of the opening, visually increasing the height of the ceiling. The latter option is more suitable for high-tech style, and the first option is usually chosen for classic interiors.

selection of tulle size — The size of the window is not the only thing that determines the size of the material required to create a given product. A significant role in calculating the size of the fabric is played by the type of desired fastening and, as a consequence, the assembly factor.

After measuring the length of the cornice, the resulting figure must be multiplied by the drapery coefficient:

1.5 - for curtains without drapery and folds.
2 - for moderate drapery.
3 - for rich, wide folds.

The classic tulle length is 10 cm to the floor. If you choose a length 10 cm below the floor, then the tulle will fall beautifully on the floor, creating a romantic haze.

Important! Over time, the fabric will stretch, so you should not take the length strictly to the floor.

tulle markings — It is desirable that the cornice be attached to the wall even before the calculation of the required length of the canvas begins.

How to hang tulle correctly

After the fabric is selected and prepared, it remains only to hang it. To do this, use different methods:

On fabric loops.
On crocodile clips.
On the eyelets.
On the curtain tape.

how to calculate the tulle on the cornice — If a set of fabric is planned for one or another splendor of the fold, you need to know the tulle gathering factor. It will help in calculating the footage that will be needed for a particular drapery.

No assemblies

It is most convenient to hang curtains without gathers and draperies on wide fabric loops. They can be crafted from the same fabric.

Wide hinges will keep lightweight material from gathering. A round curtain rod is suitable for this type of attachment. A beautiful tulle with wide loops will look spectacular in a rustic style, Provence or hi-tech style.

pleated tulle option — Depending on the characteristics of the room being decorated, the individual preferences of the hostess, the tulle is selected in a certain color, pattern, texture.

Thick fold

For a beautiful drapery, it is better to use curtain tape. It allows you to neatly collect any folds: small and lush, large. The density and depth of the folds depend on the version of the curtain tape.

Important! The curtain tape allows you to create even folds and secure them. This drapery option will look beneficial for modern tulle on panoramic glazing, where curtains are not used.

If you need to adjust the drapery from time to time, it is better to use crocodile clips with loops. With movable clips, you can easily change the drape. For example, move the bulk of the fabric to the edges, and leave a flat cloth in the center. Or, conversely, evenly distribute the folds.

placement of curtains — You can decorate curtains made of tulle with special ribbons and ribbons, only so that their width is no more than 15 cm.

We combine different lengths

A combination of different lengths of curtains and curtains looks advantageous. In this case, the tulle is chosen 10 cm shorter than the blackout curtain.

Another option for combining different lengths is tulle made of two transparent multi-colored materials. At the same time, the fabric closer to the glass is taken in neutral shades, and the outer fabric is chosen in color. The length of the neutral fabric will be classic, and the colored outer fabric will be 10 cm longer than the floor level.Thanks to this combination, a neutral canvas will create a slight haze at the window, and a light colored fabric will turn into the main accent of the decor.

Another option for combining different lengths is a short curtain with long curtains. This option is suitable for a small opening.

The most difficult combination of different lengths is 2-3 canvases, hung in a cascade. This option will create layering and volume in the window.

different tulle lengths — A fairly common option for adding expressiveness to curtains. This option involves the use of standard fabrics: tulle, organza or veil lambrequins.

We combine different textures

The classic option for combining different textures is the use of thin tulle and heavy velvet or velor curtains. This contrast makes the window appear deeper, but it is not suitable for small spaces. Simple curtains with light drapery of different density will look spectacular on modern panoramic windows.

Another option for combining textures is the use of thin material and coarse, heavy decor elements: cord rain, heavy embroidery, rhinestones.

Advice. The use of heavy decorative elements allows the curtains to be pulled out, so that they will hang evenly.

combination of different shapes — Although this is not a mandatory aspect, it will add zest to the interior, and the curtains will become much more elegant. For this, hooks, garters, cords, braid, fringe, beads or rhinestones are used. The main requirement is that the elements are selected strictly according to the overall design of the room.

Decorative cords

You can fasten decorative cords in different ways:

Sew them to the tulle in advance. To prevent the thin fabric from sagging and stretching, it is necessary to strengthen the upper horizontal edge with an additional cord or curtain tape.
Attach to double curtain tape.
Fasten on a separate tape and hang on an additional runner in the eaves. This method of fastening will make the decorative cords independent of the main fabric.

Lambrequins

Tulle pelmets are usually created by draping a separate strip of fabric on an additional cornice runner. For this, a strip is cut out, draped on a curtain ribbon with beautiful flounces and suspended.

Advice. It is better not to use hidden fasteners or semicircular lambrequins for tulle. Since thin material can easily stretch and deform.

Lambrequins made of colored transparent fabric look beautiful, they create important accents in the room, and at the same time do not overload the interior. In this case, you can take two colored stripes of fabrics, which are draped using weaving or intersection.

With and without curtains

If the tulle is hung with curtains, then for this option it is necessary to choose a cornice with two runners. In this case, the canvases are hung on separate runners. The design of the cornice can be any:

Open round bars.
Cornice with hidden fastening.
Cornice with additional external decor.

Fastening tulle without curtains is performed in the same way as with curtains, but requires great care, since all the details are visible to the eyes.

option with curtain — The modern style, which appeared at the beginning of the 20th century, is still relevant today. It is characterized by slight negligence and ease.

Care rules

In order for the tulle to decorate the window, it also needs to be properly cared for. You need to wash the tulle regularly:

Once every six months, if it hangs on the windows that overlook the courtyard or a quiet street.
Once a quarter, if the windows face the avenue.

dry clean — Modern technologies allow you to make curtains smooth without ironing them.This requires either a special household appliance - a steamer, or an iron with the appropriate function. The curtains are steamed right on the cornice.

Before washing, remove all heavy items, including fasteners, as this can damage delicate fabric.

You can also wash the material in the washing machine, but on a gentle mode. In addition, you cannot use a strong spin.

Washer — Textiles of a simple cut are easy to clean without additional finishing. The main condition for success is choosing the right processing mode.

Important! It is best not to use bleaching agents when washing, as they can damage delicate fabrics.

preparation for washing — The cleaning mode determines not only the composition of the fabric, but also the finish of the product.

It is better not to iron the tulle, but to hang it slightly damp on the window - so it straightens out under its own weight. You can also lightly moisten it with a spray bottle.
