1, the choice of curtains depends on the size. Curtains play the role of shading and protecting privacy, so the size of curtains should not be smaller than that of windows. If it is a large French window and balcony, you can choose French curtains. If it is a small window, you can choose French curtains slightly larger than the window. Of course, the specific size depends on the proportion of curtains at home, and it is good to achieve visual balance.
2. Windows and curtains should be matched. Due to the diversity of huxing and windows, the choice of curtains should be "adapted to local conditions".
(1), horizontal window: For this short and wide typical window, if there is no deep balcony and radiator, then the floor-to-ceiling curtain is a better choice.
(2) Ungraceful viewing window: This kind of window is equipped with a large piece of glass, with a large area and a lot of curtain cloth, so it is necessary to use heavy curtain rails with mechanical devices such as pulling ropes.
(3) Bay window: For the tall bay window, it is acceptable to accept the floor curtain composed of several independent curtains, each curtain is tied separately, and the curtains are connected into a whole with a continuous curtain box. If the bay window is small or curved, it can be decorated as a whole. Accept double curtains, each layer can be completely pulled to both sides of the window.
3. The pattern and texture of the curtain can't be ignored. The stripes and patterns of curtains should be coordinated with the window size of the room, the age experience of the occupants, the interior decoration and the furniture style. If the window is short, try not to choose horizontal patterns or small floral patterns, and it is best to accept vertical stripes. On small windows, we should stop choosing curtains with large patterns, otherwise the windows will become narrower. The stripes of curtains should be straight and not inclined, otherwise it will cause the illusion that the windows are inclined.
4, the choice of accessories should be careful.
Generally speaking, the rich and luxurious European roman blinds is often composed of curtain head, curtains and gauze curtains, and many accessories are used, while modern curtains can save many accessories.
Slide rail: the amount of slide rail is generally the window plus the window cover, plus the length 10 cm. If there are gauze curtains and cloth curtains, you need to buy two layers of slide rails.
Lead wire: it is a wire made of a small lead section with a central diameter of 0.5 cm. Used for the hem of curtain cloth to increase the drape of curtain. Its dosage is generally equal to the total number of meters at the lower edge of the bought cloth and yarn. Of course, if the drape of the fabric is already good, the lead wire can be omitted.
Cloth bag: a layer of material added to the gauze curtain and cloth curtain to fix the curtain with the hook. Its dosage is generally equal to the total number of meters of the upper edge of the cloth and yarn bought.
Lace: the amount of lace is roughly equal to the length of curtain head and vertical edge, and it only needs to be calculated according to the length of curtain cloth.
5. Understand the function of curtains
Shading: When the light is strong in summer, in the bedroom, choose curtain cloth with strong shading to ensure a good sleep. In the living room and dining room, you can choose thin fabrics with good light transmittance.
Noise prevention: the noise outside the window is an annoying problem, and curtains also have the function of isolating noise. Of course, different materials and thicknesses have different sound insulation effects. Generally speaking, the thicker the curtain, the better the sound insulation effect. Natural fabrics such as noodles, hemp and flannel have good sound insulation effect, while nylon and chemical fiber are the worst.
Curtain installation steps:
1. The accuracy of positioning and line drawing is related to the success or failure of curtain installation. First, measure the distance between the fixing holes and the size of the required installation track.
2. Install curtain rail:
(1) Curtain rails can be divided into single rail, double rail or triple rail. When the width of the window is greater than 1200mm, the curtain rail should be disconnected, and the bending at the broken part should be staggered, with a gentle bending curve and a lap length of not less than 200mm. Ming curtain boxes are usually equipped with rails first. Machine screws should be added to the heavy curtain track; The concealed curtain box should be installed behind the track. The small angle of the heavy curtain track should be closely arranged, and the specification of wood screws should be not less than 30 mm
(2) Install the elevator, rotate the elevator 90 degrees to connect with the track, and install the elevator on the top plate with self-tapping screws. If it is a concrete structure, expansion screws need to be added;
3. Install the curtain rod:
(1) Calibrate the connecting fixture, install the rod or wire and pull it on the fixture. Do level off, consistent with the room elevation.
(2) Standard curtain track (double track) shall be installed, and its foundation width shall generally be above 15cm, and monorail may be reduced as appropriate.
4. Adjust the position of floor-standing curtains or curtains hanging on the table. When installing the track, the width of the windowsill should be allowed to avoid unsightly curtains hanging down.
