Decorative function: optimal color
Pastel - the foundation of the basics! The most versatile colors at all times were pastel and bright. And 2018 - 2019 was no exception. Calm tones in a single scale with a common interior create a feeling of integrity, comfort and peace. This bedroom is the best place to relax from an eventful day and city bustle.

Therefore, in 2018 - 2019 quality is something that you should first of all pay attention to.
It is also important to correctly select the texture of the fabric. Luxury and, for many, favorite velvet or silk are not an option for a typical room, and even less relevant this year. Linen, wool, cotton, satin, satin, as always, are universal.
Combination Rules
- The combination of curtains with walls.
If the bedroom has a decent amount of expressive details, then it is hardly worth focusing on the curtains. Therefore, it is better to choose a fabric close to the color of the walls.
2. The combination of finishing curtains with decor.

3. Repetition of shades.
Different accents of the same color perfectly resonate with each other. Complementing each other, they create a magnificent holistic outfit to the interior. But here it is important not to overdo it. Enough couple of expressive tones in a single color palette, so that the situation was organic.
Play from white to black, creating noble and very relevant gray shades today.

Anyway, this is a smart choice for those who do not dare to decorate the window with extravagant bright textiles.
4. The combination of curtains with floor carpet.
When the plain furnishings are neutral enough, the curtains can be diversified with carpet blowing. In this case, a luxurious ornament or pattern immediately attracts the views of others and acts as the main decorative item.
Also, the combination of curtains and carpet can be a plain background.
5. The combination of the pattern on the curtains with a similar pattern on decorative pillows.
This technique is quite common, because this is another simple design option for creating harmony in the interior. And why not use them, if after sewing curtains, as a rule, there are always decent pieces of fabric.

It is not necessary that the pattern on the curtains and upholstered furniture completely coincide. It looks great combination of drawings, a little different from each other, but in the same subject.

Look for matches. The design of this bedroom is a gorgeous example of how the pleasant yellow color of the stripes on the curtains complement the curly small stands of gorgeous lamps of the same shade. In this case, the background range of the bedroom is made in a restrained pastel gray.
7. Color contrasts.
Contrasts for the bedroom - a bold decision, but no less relevant this year. Using contrasting combinations, give preference to pleasant pastel or deep noble tones. But remember, it is better to select such combinations, focusing on the palettes already developed by professionals (for example, color charts).
Abstraction or geometry
Neutral plain walls suggest the use of interesting patterns and drawings. Today, original abstractions and geometric patterns are very relevant. They can also be repeated in other elements of textiles, thus continuing the thematic print of the interior.

Stripes
The relevance of the striped print, it seems, will never go out of fashion. It is in the game of visual perception of space that the bands play their significant magical role: horizontal - visually expanding the room, vertical - as if pulling it out. Therefore, the average person can always choose one or another option, depending on the desired effect.
Plant and flower motifs
Traditionally, flowers and plants on the curtains, we are accustomed to associate with a rustic style, country or eclecticism. However, modern fashion dictates its contradictory, but no less original trends. So, floral print and furniture in high-tech style may well be companions in the creation of a unique, unique and organic style.
Roman or roller blinds
Bright accent is the clear favorite of this bedroom. Therefore, the curtains here are simply obliged to be neutral white, and the drawing, exquisitely repeating the lines of thematic figures, looks much more attractive than just a white background.
This bedroom designer chose to fill the most light. Therefore, the curtains are here, but like all the rest of the space, universal white. And only the window frames together with the bed and bedside table play the role of contrasting harmony.
Choose according to the size of the window and the amount of space. It is always ridiculous to look long sliding curtains on a small window. And the meaning of such a decision, if there is an excellent alternative: French, roller, Roman blinds are much more aesthetic in this case.
Show your imagination - use the Roman curtains not for the intended purpose, but as a wall decor. In the photo - a creative design technique: Roman curtains artfully decorate the wall near the window, as if it were a continuation.
Layering
In modern design, multilayered combinations are often used. Under the beautiful long curtain hides the Roman or roll, in this case performing a technical function.
Provide blackout
The design of the curtains in the child’s bedroom is the second thing that should be considered when choosing. Up to six years old, the baby sleeps often and in the daytime, so a constant bright light for the nursery will be inappropriate. To organize a good blackout will help high-quality Roman or roller blinds from a fairly dense fabric.
Unusual ideas for curtains
When the fantasy plays “to the fullest”, then completely unexpected, but the same charming design solutions appear in the interior:
“Refill”
“Slightly open”
“Collect”
“Decorate the headboard”
“Create Arch”
“Hang aslant”
Shortened version
“Decorate the corner”
“Overlap”
Fittings
Beautiful accessories - another great idea to decorate your bedroom. A variety of straps, clips, ribbons and other accessories for curtains will make a significant contribution to creating the perfect decor.
Technology for the lazy
Surprisingly, even in the textile issue, technology has found its application! When you lie in a cozy bed in the morning, you want to slightly open the curtain, but you don’t have any desire to get out of bed, the roller blinds console will easily perform it.
Important rule
Traditional floor curtains should touch a horizontal surface. This is the first condition for the visual effect of increasing the height of the room. Let it be a strict design with an elegantly falling canvas to the bottom, or looser, when the curtains gracefully assembled on the sides, slightly open the window. But one way or another open space from the bottom of your curtains to the floor should not be.
