Curtains

You will be surprised, but it is not necessary to purchase the machine. In most cases, curtains are sufficient. But first you need to choose them.

Curtains were invented before the wheel. Many modern models are real works of art and very remotely resemble primitive curtains made of mammoth skin. Of course, it is very beautiful, but caring for them takes time and skill..

However, curtains that do not require maintenance at all do not yet exist. So pay attention to these practical options..

Whoever came up with them was a genius. Or a bachelor. Roman blinds are a flat cloth. When lifted, horizontal folds form at the top. It is very beautiful and functional, as the structure provides for the rise to the desired height. They maintain a fixed position even in a draft. You can raise or lower such curtains using a chain manually. But there is also automated control: a button or a remote control.

The fabric can be anything: dense, lightweight, fleecy, natural or synthetic. Most often it is fixed on the cornice with Velcro. Filming is very simple. If hand washing is not your hobby, choose a material that is suitable for machine.

They also have a lifting system. You can be content with a simple chain, or you can use a remote control. A simple mechanism allows you to fix the canvas at the desired height and determine the degree of illumination. Many young ladies like it.

The design is simple: a single piece of fabric is wound around a cylinder when lifted. You can choose any texture of the material, as well as the color. Options – mass!

Moreover, if desired, you can apply any full color image. Sometimes special impregnations are used to prevent burnout..

And one more plus that you will certainly appreciate: from time to time, it is enough just to wipe them with a slightly dampened sponge. And that’s it!

Simplicity and brevity are their main advantages. Looks like a screen or vertical blinds (but their segments do not rotate).

A multi-panel structure is fixed to a multi-lane cornice. They can be controlled both manually and remotely using the remote control.

The samurai must be given their due! Their invention is capable of effectively dividing space into separate zones. For example, make two from one room. Or disguise the niche where you carefully store empty beer cans and pizza boxes.

For the manufacture of Japanese curtains, fabric, rice paper, reeds, bamboo, rattan and even plastic are used. Taking care of them will not force you to do hara-kiri. Depending on the material, they can be washed, wiped with a damp sponge or vacuum cleaned. They are removed very easily.

In fact, these are blinds made of pleated (pleated) fabric. Do not be afraid, you do not need to smooth out these very folds. They are fixed on a special profile. Both manual and electrical control possible.

Designers are unanimous: pleated pleats fit well into any modern interior.

So it will suit you too. Pay attention to the system «day Night». It consists of two types of fabric. The first is used during the day, darkening the light or protecting from the bright sun. The second, which transmits light in small amounts, is used at night or in cloudy weather. For beauty.

Pleated curtain fabrics – a huge amount. There are some that don’t burn. Materials that are not sensitive to moisture are available especially for the bathroom.

You can clean the pleats with a vacuum cleaner.

It is known for certain that blinds were invented in the Ancient East. The author’s name has been lost. If suddenly it emerges from the depths of centuries, bachelors should organize a fundraiser for his monument. Indeed, he was great!

Blinds today are made from a variety of materials (including fabrics), but nothing is simpler and more convenient than plastic.

Do you think this option is applicable only in the office? You’re wrong! Modern materials are able to imitate any texture (from tulle to wood). Colors and shapes are also varied.

The amount of light entering the room, up to complete dimming, is regulated by a cord or an electric drive.

Caring for plastic blinds couldn’t be easier. Remove dust with a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner. Once a year is enough!

Curtains without lambrequin

Curtains without lambrequin

None of my bachelor friends know what «lambrequin». But I’ll tell you. Lambrequin is a horizontal decorative drapery located at the top of the curtain composition (see Wikipedia). Do you need it? I haven’t seen lambrequins in bachelor apartments, but if you like it, please. Only it is quite difficult to care for such a structure..

However, if you belong to a small group of aesthetic inveterate bachelors (EZK), then you can quite afford it. Most likely, you have a lot of money, you have an expensive car, and the housekeeper is in charge. She, of course, will take care of lambrequins, velvet and gilding. But he may well want to marry you. Be careful!
