Choose fabric and ask "shrinkage rate"
The price of curtain cloth is influenced by the texture of fabric. Cotton, hemp, silk and wool are more expensive, but they are also the most popular among consumers. At present, price is not the main factor that affects consumers, but the novelty of color design has become the primary factor to attract consumers. For example, some new designs of group flowers and broken flowers are the most popular. However, these fabrics have a certain shrinkage rate. When buying, you should "let go" and shrink the size. At present, there is no national standard for shrinkage, and the standard implemented in Europe is 3% to 5%. You'd better ask when you buy it.
Curtains made of man-made fibers and synthetic fibers are superior to cotton and linen fabrics in shrinkage resistance, fading resistance and wrinkle resistance, and are suitable for rooms with strong sunshine. However, many modern fabrics are blended with natural fibers and artificial fibers or synthetic fibers, so both have advantages.
When choosing the texture of curtains, we should also consider the function of the room. For example, in the bathroom and kitchen, it is necessary to choose practical and easy-to-wash fabrics, which can withstand the pollution of steam and oil and have a simple and smooth style. Living room and dining room can choose luxurious and beautiful fabrics. Bedroom curtains should be thick, warm and safe. The curtains in the study should be transparent and bright, and adopt elegant colors. In addition, the choice of cloth also depends on the room's demand for light. In the case of sufficient light, you can choose gauze, cotton cloth or silk cloth. If the indoor light is too strong, you should choose a thick wool blend or brocade as a curtain to resist the strong light; The requirements for indoor light are not very strict. Generally, plain printed cotton cloth or linen is the best.
Kitchen, bathroom, etc. Because of humidity and oil smoke, it is more suitable to use shutters. In addition, leisure rooms and tea rooms are more suitable to use wooden or bamboo blinds, and balconies should use sun-resistant and colorfast curtains.
Accessories should not usurp the role of the owner.
Curtain accessories are as important to curtains as jewelry and clothing are to women, not the more the better. A small curtain fitting with suitable lining can sometimes become a great contributor to the change of curtain style, while a good curtain sometimes loses its aesthetic feeling because of inappropriate cumbersome fittings. Therefore, carefully selecting curtain accessories is also a work that cannot be ignored in the process of family decoration.
Cloth is the most common decoration of curtains, and there are other hardware, leather, plastic, glass fiber or ceramic products. According to different personal preferences, different materials and components can produce different curtain styles.
The curtain rod is used to hang the whole curtain cloth, and at the same time it plays the role of driving the curtain cloth to close left and right. Curtain rails can be divided into art rails and sound elimination rails according to the function of accessories. Art track refers to making curtain rail into the shape of art, and installing various decorations on curtain or curtain rail, such as ordinary folk souvenirs, souvenirs picked up by tourists, shells, animal models, sculptures, candlesticks, carpets, statues, mirrors, etc.
Curtain It is one of the indispensable accessories of curtain. Now, the complicated curtains are gradually fading out of the public stage. The pendant made of chemical fiber is particularly delicate and neat, which is very popular with people. There are not only big round pendants, but also small hand-woven pendants and big Chinese knots in the hanging ornaments, which have a strong festive atmosphere. Fringe is often used in the design of handrails, but it is also used for some decorative curtains or curtains themselves. It is one of the symbols that Europeans used to boast about their wealth. It can fill the emptiness of space and create a soft and romantic home atmosphere. Of course, it is possible or necessary to add another curtain to make it more elegant and generous.
In addition, there are rail head, fixing hook, lifting ring (or hook), fixing clip, pull ring and other basic accessories? And peripheral decorations such as curtain ribbons, handrails, decorative curtains, pendants, tassels or selvedges.
Unique curtain combination personality
In addition to the decorative function of curtains, now various heterogeneous curtains with new functions can also be considered to be combined with fabric curtains to achieve the perfect combination of decorative function and use.
Light-controlled curtain: This kind of curtain was developed in Japan. It installed a photoreceptor between the window glass and the curtain. When the light reaches a certain level, it can convert light energy into electric energy, so that the curtains can automatically rise and fall, thus ensuring that the room is always in a suitable bright environment.
Sound insulation curtain: a new type of sound insulation curtain developed and produced in the United States, which consists of a series of long sound insulation sheets. From one side of the curtain to the other, a continuous sound-absorbing channel can be formed, which can effectively play the role of sound insulation.
Energy-saving curtain: Britain introduced the rollable energy-saving curtain, which is made of high-strength thin polyester fabric and aluminum foil with reflective performance. The main principle of energy saving is to coat a protective layer on aluminum foil to reduce indoor and outdoor heat energy by more than 50%. At the same time, it also reduces the convection of cold and warm air between window glass and curtain.
Invisible curtain: This kind of invisible curtain, called "I can see you, but you can't see me", can reflect most of the visible light in sunlight and reduce the visible light entering the room by 65,438+05%, which can not only keep the room fresh, but also see the outdoor scenery.
Sun Curtain: There is a thin flexible photoelectric film on the sunny side of each blade of this venetian blind, which can convert sunlight into electric energy and store it in rechargeable batteries. At night, the leaves give soft light to the fluorescent lamp at one side of the room, providing background light for the room. It can also be used to drive other electrical appliances.
