Window decoration in the hall: recommendations for choosing tulle Tulle in the hall with a photo Tulle in the living room, kitchen, bedroom and nursery

The main room in an apartment or house is a hall. It gathers for family holidays, receive guests or just relax. And tulle is a symbol of homeliness and comfort, it fills the room with light, air, softens the shadows, makes the lines smooth. Therefore, before choosing curtains for the hall, you need to understand their types and combination rules.

Tulle is a type of fabric. Varieties

Tulle is a piece of light translucent fabric with dense weaving. It was first made in France, in the city of the same name, back in the 15th century. At first, only screens were sewn from it, and they began to use it for decorating windows a little later. In a modern interior, it is also used as a screen.

One of the main criteria when choosing a tulle should be the material from which it is made. It can be natural (cotton, silk) or synthetic (polyester, viscose, polyamide), but most often it is a blended fabric. Tulle curtains from it serve for a long time, without fading in the sun and without deforming, they are easy to wash and they practically do not wrinkle. The most common nylon tulles, which look like silk, are smooth, transparent, easily breathable and do not retain dust.

Tulle curtains in the hall made of linen or cotton look very expensive and beautiful, especially in romantic and Provencal styles, giving the hall a special chic. They are also often complemented with handmade lace or voluminous embroidery. But natural fabrics require special treatment - they easily wrinkle, fade in the bright sun, and can also shrink. Tulle is made, like ordinary fabric, on looms, as well as on lace or curtain machines. It is depending on the method of weaving the threads that it happens:

smooth - cambric, jacquard, chiffon;
mesh - small, medium, large;
with a pattern, monograms - organza, veil, muslin.

Batiste tulle is very delicate and smooth, but chiffon tulle has a relief structure. A special place in the tulle family is occupied by jacquard - a multi-colored embossed fabric woven from threads that differ in color and thickness - it looks luxurious, but expensive to manufacture.

Tulle veil is soft, supple, great for draping, and organza is very beautiful when lushly assembled. Kisei is a set of separate threads, strips with or without a single base. These threads can be either of the same color or multi-colored, they are often strung with beads, glass beads or pearls - of different textures or sizes.

These are only the main and most common types of tulles. Tulle with embroidery is very popular - smooth and convex, both in color and with contrasting threads. Every year, designers come up with something new, such as weaving rubber threads, photo printing, batik-style tulle or with a squeeze effect. And among all this diversity, when choosing, you need to be guided by personal preferences and design features of the room.

How to choose tulle for the hall

Where to start choosing?

Before proceeding with the choice of tulle for the hall, it is necessary, first of all, to determine what function it will perform, what its practical purpose will be:

Reduce the brightness of solar brightening;
To protect your personal space;
Needed as a background for curtains or curtains;
To hide construction defects, unsuccessful or stale repairs;
Addition to the overall image of the room;
To create a cozy and homely atmosphere;
To hide the not very beautiful view outside the window;
Visually enlarge or reduce the room;
The main accent in the interior of the room, its decorative element.

Once you have decided on the goal, you can proceed to the second stage - the choice of cornice and curtains.

Cornice is important

Many argue about what should be chosen first - a cornice or tulle with curtains. The answer is to do it together. Firstly, based on the functionality of the cornice - whether it is single-row or multi-row, you need to consider whether there will be tulle in the hall with or without curtains. And, secondly, determine the method of attaching the eaves - ceiling or wall.

The ceiling cornice visually raises the ceiling, making the room taller, and the multi-row one is suitable for experimenting with layering. Also, the choice of a cornice depends on the general style of the interior - a simple string or a round metal one will fit well into the interior in the style of minimalism and hi-tech, and a classic wooden one will suit almost any type of window, and will be relevant in almost all styles. But the most popular are combined multi-row cornices. When choosing a cornice, you need to immediately plan how tulle and curtains will be attached to it - using metal or plastic rings, loops and ties, hooks or curtain tape, or even on grommets.

Choose a color

The color of tulle plays an important role in the design of the hall. Dark shades visually reduce the room, and light shades increase, expand.

When choosing the color of tulle curtains, you also need to take into account the color and structure of the upholstery of upholstered furniture in the hall, as well as the color of the walls, the type and color of the floor, carpets and rugs - there should be harmony, all the details in the interior should overlap with each other.

Classic white floor-length tulle will always look advantageous in any type of interior.

Yellow and orange colors will fill the room with additional warm light, especially in dimly lit rooms. And the champagne color will add some chic

A new fashion trend is green tulle, which shades the curtains a few shades darker. The most fashionable shades are emerald, olive.

Cool colors: lilac, gray and blue will give a feeling of freshness and coolness.

Tulle with interwoven gold and silver threads, as well as with a glossy and shiny surface, will give the room a feeling of lightness and elegance.

A few years ago, chameleon tulles appeared, which change their color depending on the lighting. Their peculiarity is that they are made of two, sometimes very different, colors. For example, red and yellow, green and gold, etc. Therefore, choosing them for your hall, you need to understand that they will be its main decorative element. As well as tulle with photo printing (monochrome or color) - a picture-picture.

It is important that when choosing tulle curtains, the width of the canvas with photo printing matches the width of the cornice so as not to form a large number of folds, because the pattern will look blurry and inorganic. Such a tulle curtain will suit a room with plain wallpaper and calm tones in the general interior, it will visually expand the space.

Tulle and curtains - how to combine them correctly: options for a hall without curtains

Usually, tulle and curtains are chosen for the hall in a classic design style, which is simple lines, light colors. Also, baroque or rococo styles are still popular - ostentatious luxury: a multi-layered curtain of various textures, draperies, a lot of lace, embroidery with gold threads.

But for modern houses and apartments, tulle and curtains are increasingly being chosen, adhering to the style of minimalism or hi-tech.

If the curtains are bright, colorful, then it is better to choose a tulle that is plain or with a small muted pattern. And if you hang a tulle fabric over curtains, you get a very beautiful and original imitation of translucence.
Tulle without curtains in the living room will look very impressive, and in order to protect your personal space, you can use the blinds.

How beautiful to hang tulle in the hall. Modern tendencies

Choosing tulle, curtains and cornice is not all, you need to hang everything beautifully.

The tulle is attached to the cornice with the help of rings and clothespins - they perform both a decorative and functional role. More often they are used when you need constant access to the window. Another popular fastening method is the drawstring. To do this, the edge of the canvas is folded and hemmed to such a width that it is possible to thread a cornice-string or tube. The disadvantage is that the tulle moves very difficult, but ideal, identical folds can be made once and until the next wash.

Fixing methods:

Decorative fittings: clips and clothespins, ties and clips, decorative cords, satin and nylon ribbons will turn even the simplest tulle into a work of art.
The loops sewn to the edge of the tulle can be decorated with lace, artificial flowers, beaded threads.

In order to beautifully hang a tulle curtain in the hall, you can use drapery - one-sided, oncoming or bow. It is done either by hand or with the help of a curtain tape, which comes in different colors, even with a pattern and different widths. Hand folds are stronger and more durable. The lighter the tulle fabric, the more drapery folds can be made, and the denser one, vice versa.

In small and low rooms, it is better not to hang tulle with lambrequins - it visually lowers the ceilings lower. Often in modern interiors they hang tulle without curtains, but here you need to take into account that it should echo the color of the walls - be the same color, a few tones lighter or darker, or classic white. You can experiment with layering, folds, swags, drawings, lambrequins, add all kinds of inserts, metallized fragments.

Tulle is an important detail that you should pay attention to when decorating your room. If the room does not have a clear concept and style that it is desirable to adhere to, then pastel shades of soft texture will be universal. If the windows of the hall face the shady side, you need to choose a light tulle with a good ability to transmit light, and for the sunny side, a dense opaque one with a large pattern is better suited. For a large room, a multi-layered tulle from the ceiling to the floor would be ideal, and for a small narrow one, it is better to choose short horizontal striped curtains for the window in the hall. If the living room is full of furniture and small interior details, then it is better to choose simple, plain curtains. The main thing when choosing tulle in the hall is to avoid excesses and variegation.

Hello! Today, about such a simple, but for some reason, making many people doubt the question: is it necessary to hang tulle on windows along with ordinary curtains? And subsequent brain-breaking questions. Is it possible to do without it? Won't the window look bare and the whole interior unfinished? What will people say? But what if only ordinary curtains, because many designers say that tulle is a collective farm? The most obvious answer is that it's all a matter of taste. But I, as usual, do not like such vague answers. Therefore, I will collect and decompose all the pros and cons of using tulle, which will definitely help you make the right decision for your particular case.

Advantages

1.+ Private The main and indisputable plus is the ability to hide what is happening in the room from prying eyes. A low floor or dense buildings, when you and your neighbors can easily see through the window who is having breakfast, leave practically no choice. Exhibitionism is still a rather rare phenomenon, so most people in these conditions will choose a window with tulle, and even complement it with thick curtains. Because the tulle will shine through when the light is on in the room. But during daylight hours, it will do its job perfectly.

2 .+ Protection of the room from direct sunlight. This is also the protection of objects from fading, such as wood. Or maybe you have valuable antiques everywhere, the paintings are original. And just in summer it can be too sunny and hot on the south side.

3.+ The tulle closes the so-called. "black hole" at night. In general, it turns out there are quite a few people who are afraid of the night darkness in the windows. It seems that someone is watching you from this darkness. Personally, I experience this discomfort in low-rise private houses. For example, in a village with relatives, the darkness of the night towards the forest is the most terrible horror. But on high floors, in apartment buildings, I'm already fine. And such fears even cause a smile.

4 .+ An ugly radiator is covered. Many people do not like it when some utilitarian household items are in sight, the battery is one of them. It can be old and ugly, or it can be new, but too out of touch with the rest of the situation. There may be meters, sensors, regulators - not everyone likes to watch this in almost the most prominent place. You don’t always want to put a screen, but a light tulle perfectly covers all this disgrace.

Flaws

1. — Reduction of insolation (receipt of sunlight). No matter how thin and light the tulle is. It seems to me that every housewife, who at least once removed everything from the windows for washing, clearly saw this. With a bare window, the room is immediately brighter. I find it difficult to determine by how many times or by how many percent, but this difference is so significant that it is clearly visible to the eye. But I will say right away that our Russia is so big that for some regions this is clearly not a problem, but for others to reduce the already incoming crumbs of light is simply a mockery.

Judge for yourself, the average number of sunny days per year for different regions. I envy you, Siberians and southerners!

Sunny days per year:

Irkutsk - 318 !!!
Omsk, Khabarovsk, Vladivostok, Krasnodar - about 300.
Volgograd - 240
Rostov-on-Don - 234
Kazan - 200
Ufa, Perm, Novosibirsk - 190
Moscow - 188
St. Petersburg - 180
Murmansk- 151
Yakutsk-135

There are regions where not only half a year of bad weather, but even more. I just want to add the imperishable... The village of Gadyukino was washed away. It feels like I don’t have a clear sky in Izhevsk practically from October to March. Plus, rain is not uncommon in summer. Without the sun, sometimes you just want to howl, and by mid-February, your health is already close to coma.

2. — Visual reduction of the area of the room. At least the size of the window sills. Let's take a calculator. For example, I have 2 windows in my living room and load-bearing walls 80 cm thick. By hanging tulle, I physically fenced off 2.48 square meters in only one room. In monolithic houses, the walls are thinner, but nevertheless, the total amount of all window sills can be tangible. I am sure that just like that no one would agree to voluntarily reduce their apartment by 1-, 1.5 squares, it seems like a trifle, but I don’t want to give them up at all.

3. — Windows expand the space. Any room with a window visually seems more the same, but without a window. They are natural architectural centers of the room and always attract the eye. And then the glance slides further, outside the room, and it seems to us more spacious. But even a simple light tulle immediately cuts off everything outside the window. Closes the space. Conditional 17 meters will be physically fenced off from the rest of the world.

It turned out that there are much more advantages to using tulle. But, by and large, the final decision is made not by their number, but based on the architectural features of a particular room. Now I have a second floor and a nearby neighboring house - so there is tulle in the living room, but no longer in the kitchen. The new apartment will have a high floor and the distance to the neighbors is twice as large, I was tired of sitting in the twilight for half a year, so it will not be there. I will hang only simple curtains and sunbathe.

Do you have tulle hanging at home or have you abandoned it? Maybe I forgot some other significant reason, share in the comments.

Hello! Instead of tulle, we decided to hang horizontal blinds inside the window in order to use the wide window sill more efficiently, the apartment is small, every meter counts. Nelly, can you tell me about the width of the slats, the usual 25 mm, but the store advises cassette 16 mm, is it worth overpaying? And how do you feel about the blinds in the living room?
Alya
It seems to me that light tulle can be added to the pluses for comfort, for example, in the kitchen, where there is a minimum of beautiful furniture, mostly everything is utilitarian. But a beautiful chandelier and tulle immediately make the room interesting, cozy, romantic, in general, not an office 😉 What do you think?
Tatiana
We have a 2nd floor, there is no tulle in the kitchen and I really like it: it’s convenient to dilute cooking and cleaning with quick glances out the window, while eating you can watch the processes outside, no doubt, a lot of light and I also like that there is no voluminous light canvas near nearby stove. At night I lower thick Roman blinds.
There is no tulle in the bedrooms with balconies either. But here I am in doubt. I want to hang tulle for comfort, but given that the balconies steal light, the room will become even darker. We've been living without him for three years, I'm still thinking)))

Now, if I had been asked this question in childhood, then I would have said that tulle is needed on the windows, and the more the better. I often got a scolding from my grandmother for stealing tulle from windows in order to catch small fish in the pond with friends .. the window is empty, but there is fish 🙂

And now I would not have seen this tulle in my eyes, a collection of dust and all the time in the same place smeary from hands when it is deflected from the window. I have horizontal blinds installed on the windows, very comfortable and modern .. vacuumed through them and clean ...
Arthur
I have been “fighting” with my wife about tulle all our life together (7 years already): she cannot live without them, but I just hate them. I have already given arguments in favor of the visual expansion of the space, and told / showed about the blinds, and frightened me with a dust collector - nothing helps. It usually ends like this - “take my tulle off the windows and you won’t see me again” 🙂
Elena
We live without tulle and any curtains in the living room. In the kitchen, which is combined in the living room, only roller blinds, oh my, charcoal. Light curtains in the nursery, translucent curtains in the bedroom. Floor two. I don't feel discomfort. Is it only in the evening that I lower the curtain in the kitchen 🙂 If it were possible to make windows full-length... why tulle, curtains, drapes? I don’t understand lambrequins, ruffles, royal ties 🙂 Probably, it’s a matter of character?
My answer is no!
Daria
We moved into a new apartment 2 years ago, we planned to use wooden blinds instead of curtains, but so far with bare windows - and I love it so much I don't want any curtains. The only thing in the bedroom was a blind (blackout) from the light. We are on the 21st floor. The feeling of space and light is very pleasing)

Curtains for the hall can not be afraid of experiments. There is no need to avoid bright colors here, as for the nursery and bedroom, or try to keep the curtain short, as for the kitchen. The living room is the only place in the house where you can hang any beautiful curtain in the spirit of fashion trends in the world of curtains.

Types of tulle

Traditionally sheer curtains are made from organza, voile and mesh. Modernity has added muslin to these materials and singled out Turkish tulle as a separate group.

Let's deal with each type of curtains separately:

fashion fabrics

Knowledge of trendy fabrics will allow the hall to be made modern:

When using tulle for a room without curtains, choose materials with a clearly defined structure, pattern, embroidery, and lush drapery.

Ethnic ornaments, a large bright pattern, a wide contrasting stripe are considered fashionable.

fashion style

The classic straight-cut curtain does not become obsolete. The leading role in creating the interior is taken by the quality of the fabric, the sophistication of the pattern, embroidery or lace. A beautiful white tulle of the finest weaving, floor-length, is relevant and in demand in a modern living room.

Combined curtains are considered fashionable. Two or more multi-colored canvases can hang on one cornice. Shades are within the same color or are selected in contrast.

fashionable accessories

The color of the curtain is combined with the curtains if the standard set is selected. A single curtain is matched to the walls a few tones darker or lighter, furniture upholstery or its color scheme unites the diverse elements of the living room. The simplest solution is a white curtain. It will hide any stylistic flaws.

A mandatory attribute of a modern interior is a unique composition made of tulle and curtains.

Often, tulle for the living room is used as a completely independent unit, but still more often complemented by curtains.

In every house, the living room is a special place, because the family gathers here, and dear guests are received here. That is why, with such responsibility, you need to approach the design of such a room.

You can choose tulle yourself, to your taste, or turn to a professional designer for help. The main thing is to avoid excesses and variegation.

Visually, tulle changes the geometry of the room, turning it into a bright, cozy one.

A prerequisite when choosing a tulle, not only attractiveness, but also reliability, strength - there must be protection for all residents of the house from fleeting glances from the street.

Textile

In the living room, either synthetics are used to decorate the window - muslin, silk, organza, or natural fabrics such as linen and cotton.

It is clear that it is better to opt for natural material, but nevertheless, it should be noted that each textile behaves in a special way in the interior.

Linen and cotton are the fabrics that complement the interior, made in the style of hi-tech or minimalism. So, there is a little trick in the care of fabrics, because when washing they can often shrink.

It is very difficult to remove dirt from such a canvas. Natural fabric after washing should be ironed.

During operation, synthetics behave less whimsically. During operation, its deformation was not noticed, the curtains are washed in a typewriter, and sometimes you don’t even need to iron them.

The fabric almost does not electrify, and almost does not attract dust to itself. The main argument when choosing curtains made of woven fabric is that a beautiful tulle in the living room is not as expensive as an analogue, but made of natural fabric.

The range of fabrics is amazing, and therefore it is not at all easy to make the right choice. What is important to pay special attention to?

If a room is decorated without any style, tulle should be chosen in pastel colors.
If the surface of the walls is patterned, then it is better to choose the curtains in one tone.
Decorating the window in discreet shades, as it were, focuses on the decor.
A bright curtain looks better in combination with a grid.
The visualization of the room changes depending on how the curtains are hung, how they are fastened.

Window size and location

First of all, you need to correctly assess the size of the existing room.

Often, the room is very large, but it also happens that a compact cozy room is allocated for guests, and then a completely different method of performing window decoration.

If there is a spacious living room, then anyone can have a curtain, because any idea can be realized, any combination of tulles in the interior of the living room is acceptable.

It is worth choosing materials of any color, pattern, texture, so that there is harmony in combination with the decor.

Color

The living room is most often decorated with white tulle, which is typical for conservatives in life who love the classics, and also for creative individuals who are tired of making choices in anything.

But sometimes you need to choose exactly unusual shades for tulle. Bold decisions are to the liking of extraordinary personalities who know how to surprise and love to do it in life. Innovators will prefer black and white tulle.

A strict interior with weightless tulle and thick heavy curtains looks stylish. Of course, the design of tulle for the living room and the design of curtains are combined with furniture, wall coverings, accessories.

If the living room is quite small, then you should not experiment with dark colors, it is better to choose a light fabric in cheerful shades, for example, peach, lemon.

Texture

Textiles can be both perfectly smooth and textured. Dense tulle, light, which is decorated with embroidery, looks best.

Kiseya is an unusual option, due to the fact that the ropes hang down, and a whole canvas is formed, as it were. The living room with the help of kisei is divided into zones.

Roman curtains can also be used in the room, which close it from fleeting glances from the street.

This design looks beautiful from the street and no less beautiful from the inside. Roman curtains are closed with a veil, organza, can be decorated with curtains.

It is not so easy to choose tulle for the living room, and it is not enough just to look at the photo of tulle for the living room. The main task of the choice is to make the room look cozy and stylish.

Photo design tulle for the living room

Tulle deservedly enjoys great popularity in interior design. Light flowing fabrics used in window decoration, however, are entirely subject to all the laws of fashion: new trends appear every year.

All about the current trends of 2017 and the latest design of tulle for the hall, we will consider in this review.

Minimalism is on trend

The decoration of the window in the hall with tulle without curtains is gaining more and more popularity. If earlier in classic interiors it looked unfinished, then in a modern living room this option looks very fresh and fashionable.

Despite the fact that today it is possible to create the most complex and intricate design without any problems, the simplest tulles in the form of straight curtains do not lose their popularity.

This solution has many advantages:

This is an easy way to transform the room - the fabric, carefully selected in color, will breathe new life into the room;
Most of the materials used for sewing tulle are unpretentious in care - they can be washed in a typewriter and dried right on the eaves;
By the way, about the cornices: it will be possible to beautifully fix the curtain on any type of structure.

eyelets

Among all the methods of attaching tulle, it is especially worth highlighting - rings that “squeeze” the fabric and calmly put on the cornice.

It is they who make it possible to make equally even folds across the entire width of the material. Grommets will be ideal and, perhaps, the only right solution for halls with a balcony door: it will often be possible to move the curtain back without harming its “appearance”.

Traditionally, eyelets with an inner diameter of 4-6 cm are used, strung on a round cornice. But there is another type of them, used much less often, but also worthy of attention - small rings with a diameter of no more than 1-2 cm.

They do not play the role of self-fastening, do not form folds on the fabric, but only serve as a kind of loops. In order to use them, you will need additional hooks, ties or ties with rings.

These eyelets are suitable for very thin, sheer curtains, where standard size rings would look too bulky. It is convenient that any, not necessarily a round cornice, is suitable for such a mount.

Do not worry about the fact that tulle in the style of "minimalism" will look too banal and simple. The straight canvas can be easily transformed to suit your mood: just gather the tulle on the sides and in the center, using stylish accessories that complement the interior of the hall.

weightless muslin

In 2017, many professional designers opt for kisei - today available in hundreds of colors.

Lightweight and perfectly transparent to the sun, curtains can look different every day: the number of accessories that are suitable for this type of tulle is huge - as are the variations of the curtains themselves!

Ordinary "hairpins" in the form of flowers look beautiful. By the way, they are not only bright, but also a functional element of decor, holding the fabric in the position you need.

Fans of non-standard interiors can be advised to use muslin of several colors to create a single composition. The only condition is that the choice of shades will have to be approached very carefully: it is very important that the colors not only combine with each other, but also “echo” with the general style of the hall.

In rooms with different purposes, different types of curtains are used. Silk or linen threads with artificial pearls, glass beads or beads look especially good in the hall.

The same muslin can be hung on a window opening along with tulle and as a dividing screen for zoning the hall into a recreation area and a dining room. They will create a fantasy atmosphere conducive to relaxation and pleasant communication in the room.

Kisei is the best option for creating curtains of a complex and unusual configuration. This fabric will be located naturally, without creases in any case. Give preference to muslin if the window opening in your hall is located on a wall of a non-standard shape, for example, a semicircular one.

Batik and photo printing

Or a pattern applied using the ancient technique of batik - this is the main novelty of 2017.

A correctly selected pattern looks great on a delicate fabric framing the window with soft waves. Such a curtain not only scatters bright sunlight and hides the architectural flaws of the opening - it is a full-fledged decor element, the main accent in the interior.

Today, many companies are engaged in printing on fabric - it is not at all necessary to choose tulle from a “ready-made” assortment. This becomes a decisive argument in favor of just such curtains - you have a great chance to make your interior individual inside and out!

The advantages of photo-tulle are enough:

polyester, which is printed on, is easy to care for; the drawing itself does not fade under the influence of the sun or over time;
a properly selected image can not only decorate the room, but also make it more spacious visually;
choosing the right photo will turn out for any interior - you don’t have to radically change the design of the room so that the tulle looks organic.

If you want to order a ready-made photo tulle, pay special attention to ensure that the width of the fabric exactly matches the width of the cornice. A realistic image of tails and folds is unlikely to be decorated (however, there are exceptions to any rule - soft waves look great on curtains with a picture of the sky).

Selection rules

For the hall, decorated in the classical style of the beginning of the last century, light lace curtains are suitable, it is possible with embroidery to match the fabric.

They go well with heavy dark wood furniture and dark wallpaper. Such curtains will bring notes of lightness and airiness to the atmosphere without destroying the atmosphere that reigns in it.

For the hall, in the style of hi-tech or minimalism, it is better to choose a muslin with metallic threads or a smooth tulle with a mother-of-pearl sheen, you can with an abstract black and white pattern or a photo tulle with an urban landscape.

The more restrained the interior, the more bizarre and brighter the tulle is chosen for it, and vice versa. At the same time, one should never forget that the design of the curtains should resonate with the decor of the hall: color, print on fabric, decorations.

For complex curtains, made up of several elements: pelmets, ties, swags, it is better to choose a white or pastel-colored simple tulle made of smooth, dense natural silk with a slight addition of synthetic fibers.

Draperies and tulle should match each other in color and shape, so they need to be chosen together. In addition, synthetic tulle should not be hung on natural fabric curtains. Conveniently, lately manufacturers have been releasing companion fabrics designed specifically to complement each other.

Fashion is fashion, but you should definitely not forget about the basic rules for choosing tulle for the hall: in pursuit of fashion, the main thing is not to spoil the room.

1 If the windows of your hall face the shady side, take care of creating "artificial light" - add curtains in pastel, light or non-aggressively bright shades. Choose fabrics with good throughput (for example, cotton muslin).
2 The light in a sun-drenched room can be dimmed with tulle made from a fairly dense fabric of dark colors or saturated shades. In such halls, it would be appropriate to look at a curtain with a large floral or geometric ornament.
3 When decorating a hall of a small area, it is worth giving preference to bright colors; with accessories in this case, you should be very careful.
4 Multi-layered tulle in light shades, tails, unusual designs and various decorations look attractive in large rooms on wide windows. It is not recommended to clutter up a narrow opening with additional design.
5 When choosing tulle, first of all, you need to decide what role it plays in the design of the hall: a central accent in the interior or an additional accessory for curtains and furniture. And already, based on these prerequisites, select the fabric, color and style for the curtains.
6 Layering is in fashion, but if you combine several layers of multi-colored tulle on one window, one of them should become a priority, and the rest should only complement it. The best solution is one bright color and several pastel colors or curtains in different shades of the same color.
7 The tulle in the hall can be changed according to the season. In spring and summer, give preference to its varieties with a mesh structure that allow air to pass through well. In autumn and winter, hang thicker curtains made of organza, silk or chiffon.

In the store, the fabric hangs on stands or lies on the counter, rolled up. Therefore, in order to evaluate the shade of tulle and understand how it will look on the window opening, be sure to look at it through the light when buying.

If access to the window sill is important to you, it is not necessary to make sliding curtains. It is enough to provide for a cut in the middle on them.

As already mentioned, since any pattern can be applied to tulle with photo printing or batik, it fits all interior styles.

But you need to understand that photocurtains are a very powerful decorative tool. They inevitably become the main accent of the whole atmosphere of the hall, and the rest of the interior accessories must match them, and their colors at least partially overlap.

How to properly care for tulle

In the hall, tulle gets dirty much less than, for example, in the kitchen or even in the nursery. But in order for it to serve for a long time without losing its presentation, you will have to follow some rules for caring for it:

You need to wash the tulle for the hall once or twice a season. Machine washable on a delicate cycle at a temperature not exceeding 40 degrees with pre-soaking.
Rinse the tulle in cold water until the detergent is completely washed out. Pressing is not used.
The washed curtains are slightly shaken without twisting, the water is allowed to drain and dried in a straightened form.
Usually tulle does not need ironing. But if, after it dries, there are bruises and creases, iron it with an iron on minimal heat (one point or 110 degrees) or steam it by weight, directly on the eaves.

The tulle in the hall was and remains an excellent solution - however, this is not at all a reason not to change its design for years. New fashion trends and interesting trends appear every year: the main room in your home can keep up with the times!
