Each room should be cozy and pleasant in its own way, and the main decoration is tulle or curtains.

Tulle is a light translucent fabric that is sometimes decorated with various patterns.

What to look for when choosing

Choosing a tulle for a manhole is not as easy as it seems at first glance. The difficulty is that among a wide range it is difficult to choose exactly the model that will be combined with the interior.

Designers made it easier for the hostesses by giving a couple of lessons on the right choice of tulle in the hall.

It is important to build on the following criteria:

• initially you need to know where the tulle will be, even before buying. Correctly selected tulle can play both a major and a minor role in any interior.
• the main thing is that the style of the curtains coincides with the style in the interior itself, if you have not decided on the style in the living room, then it is better to stay on bed colors;
• the shade for tulle in the hall can be chosen from several fabrics, but they should look like this: one tone should be the main one, and the rest should be only auxiliary;

If you are looking for tulle for the 2017 hall, then the designers suggest starting from the lighting in the room. Windows facing the dark side of the street most often have a minimum passability of color, which means that translucent bed shades are suitable for them.

If a large amount of color falls through your windows, then curtains made of dense fabric, or tulle in slightly dark tones, can save the situation. Another important point is that the tulle must be chosen based on the season outside the window.

In winter, warm monochromatic tones will look good, and in summer you can hang bright summer curtains and curtains. Photos of tulle in the hall can be viewed below.

Tulle in the hall, as shown in the photo, proves that light colors tend to visually increase the territory, giving lightness and splendor, while dark toga, on the contrary, tend to reduce space, so this fact must be used when choosing curtains and tulle.

This means that for a small living room it is necessary to select light shades of curtains, since the area will visually increase.

Varieties of tulle

In modern textiles, there is such a large variety of fabrics that not everyone can immediately choose exactly what he needs.

Tulle has its place in an ordinary room, where there is no specific interior and style, but if the classic style prevails in the interior, then the use of muslin is necessary. It can be absolutely any, both a common element in the interior, and an auxiliary one that goes well with the classics.

Tulle is different. For example, for Art Nouveau style, tulle with guipure inserts is suitable, and for country style, thin cotton tulle is more suitable.

For a more effective result, you can hang tulle on the eyelets, as it has smooth and beautiful features. It is important to remember that tulle with eyelets must be selected for the interior of the living room, for example: if the living room has a modern style, then it is better to choose shiny metal eyelets.

If there is a balcony in the hall, then for such premises, models such as sliding tulle, which tend to recover without a trace, are suitable. For a larger hall, made in a classic style, tulle with lambrequins is suitable. Consider that the larger the hall, the more complex elements should be present in the interior.

Today, designers do not advise using tulle with large flowers or patterns, since it is not modern, fashionable and not stylish.

Another important point: when you go to pick up the tulle, take a good mood with you, otherwise, over time, there is a risk that you will quickly get bored with an incorrectly selected tulle.

Fabric care

It is important not only to choose the right tulle in the living room, but also not to forget about caring for it.

Care Tips:

• You need to take off the tulle and wash it two to three times a year, while adhering to the recommendations for the temperature regime. For a shiny wash, add a spoonful of vinegar per liter of water.
• Shake out the tulle before washing, freeing it from dust, otherwise it will quickly take on a grayish tint.
• If you plan to wash in an automatic machine, then it is better to use a special detergent for delicate washing with the least foaming. It is more correct to refuse spinning.
• Difficulties arise with ironing large items. Therefore, it is preferable to dry in an upright state, avoiding folds and creases. It is difficult to select a temperature regime for delicate fabrics when ironing, and it is easy to spoil them. Use a vertical steam iron when the tulle is already hung, and set the temperature for delicate fabrics.

Textiles and curtains

When choosing shades and patterns for curtains, keep in mind the combination of textiles. The tastefully decorated living room has echoing patterns and tones throughout the room's fabrics. For example, pillows on the sofa repeating patterns on the curtains or the color of tulle that matches the color of the rug is a sign of a design approach to the interior of the room.

Design Tips:

• Avoid dense and dark fabrics if the light entering the window is clearly not enough.
• For an energetic mood, it is better to give preference to bright colors, warm shades will give coziness to the hall.

Cool tones will create an atmosphere of calm and coolness. Dilute the white curtains with accent details.

• Tulle and curtains can be matched in texture and colors with upholstered furniture.
• A large drawing is suitable for a large hall, and a small print for a small living room. The vertical strip will visually raise the ceilings, the horizontal strip will expand the space.
• The style of the interior and the fabric for the tulle must also withstand the cornice. A pompous baguette will fit into a classic and luxurious interior. In a minimalist room, the cornices are almost invisible, or the mount is hidden behind a special niche in the ceiling.
• If the tulle is interesting for the hall in itself, you don't need to hang the curtains. And, conversely, for graceful curtains, it is better to choose a laconic background in the form of a plain light tulle. If the originally designed curtains with lambrequins are supplemented with tulle with a clear pattern or contrasting tones, then the interior will turn out to be oversaturated and tasteless.

Regardless of the function of tulle: whether it gives the hall luxury, whether it acts as a background for the interior or simply complements the design, the choice should be balanced and appropriate. Textiles give a feeling of coziness, create the right atmosphere, therefore it is important to achieve the unity of shades and interior elements.
