Lambrequins for the hall - why in the interior of such an element?
Real curtains for windows are curtains. They give coziness to housing, completely changing the appearance of not only the window, but the entire room. For the fastening of curtains there are numerous designs of cornices: from protozoa with stretched wire to complex structures made using decorative stucco molding with gilding, etc.
What are the curtains attractive for a hall with a lambrequin? Elegant decoration, as it is translated from the French name of the element, can be of different types. There are soft, hard and combined elements. By the way, it is quite possible to make cornices simulating them. This method is very widespread in wooden house-building. But going back to the subject of the conversation, we must admit that in the modern design of windows, the revival of lambrequins is again observed, as an important element of decoration.
The pieces of fabric that cover the space above the door or window are capable of giving true completeness to the design of such apertures. Another reason for the newly increased popularity is that it is quite easy to make lambrequins for the hall with your own hands. They represent a curtain of small height, smooth or collected in creases, with tassels or fringe( here the widest space of the owners' fantasy), located in the upper part of the corresponding opening and not retracting to the side( unlike curtains and curtains themselves).
Lambrane for the living room - decoration features of the
It is not always advisable to use the described ornaments. So, if the cornice itself in the living room or hall is distinguished by the beauty and richness of the finishes, is made of expensive materials, then it is more appropriate to use curtains for a hall without a lambrequin. But if you decide to use the decoration of the cornice, then you need to choose fabrics for this easier than for curtains. Of course, the color combination must be observed. Can be combined with air( gas) tissues. Collected in folds on a darker( under the color curtains) and dense base, they provide an amazing effect of light clouds.
The most common element, with which it is convenient to attach lambrequins for the living room, is a special cornice. It is fixed in front of the main structure of the eaves carrying the curtains themselves. It should be taken into account that the length of such a special box should be greater than that of the main one. This is understandable, because the main one should close it all along its length. Convenient is the design of such auxiliary cornice, having on the one hand special hooks of the appropriate size, for hanging on the main cornice. On the front side, there may be an adhesive surface for the fabric of the decor.
However, lambrequins can not only hide the cornices for the hall. Correctly chosen length can change the perception of the same windows or doors, make them visually wider or higher. Standards of manufacture assume a five-six-fold excess of the curtain height of the decor( lambrequin).But depending on the specific room, this ratio may become more or less than the recommended standard. The main thing is to achieve the necessary proportions. Additional puffiness and repetition of the shape of the opening can also simply hide possible irregularities, etc.
How to decorate the cornices for the living room with lambrequins?
The industry produces a variety of types of cornices, quite beautiful and stylish. It happens that in the beginning the curtains for the living room without lambrequin were hung, and then there was a desire to use additional decoration. In this case, there is no need to change the cornice or buy a new one for decoration. It will be worthy of looking drapery, sewn directly to a single curtain. This technique will not limit the possibility of moving it along the length of the ledge. If you have two curtains( on both sides of the opening), then some restriction of their movement will take place.
Applying this technique, we collect the strip of fabric with folds and sew it so that its upper part is covered by the cornice itself. It looks pretty impressive.
A little about what kind of lambrequins are, already mentioned above. Cornices for the living room can decorate soft types. These they can be called because they are easily collected by folds of any shape, in other words, perfectly draped. The simplest is the manufacture of jewelry from the fabric strip, a height of up to thirty centimeters, collected in folds. You can make horizontal, vertical, diagonal folds and their combinations. Such soft lambrequins do not have adhesives in their construction.
If the curtain rails in the living room are decorated with strips of fabric, from which it is impossible to form folds, to assemble into a knot, etc., it is obviously a question of a rigid form. It is distinguished by the presence of adhesive abilities on one or both sides. The material can serve as a fabric or non-woven film. And combined is the option of combining hard and soft lambrequins( rosettes, bows, overhangs or other design techniques).As it became clear, their application opens truly vast spaces for the flight of fantasy and creativity, and these techniques are fairly simple to implement.
