This winter decorators make out the windows are difficult: they order the masters of the curtains of several rich fabrics and select super-sophisticated accessories for them

In the fashion curtain fabric of thick silk - with jacquard weaving and smooth, multi-colored and solid colors. From the deep tones of the past year - rich brown, lingonberry-red, dark green and gold - the colors of the new season are distinguished by pastelness. The colors became lighter and lighter, such as the heavenly color of curtains in an apartment by design. Hope Chernigov. No, this, of course, does not mean a ban on the use of dark fabrics, but now they should be diluted with a large amount of light white fabric - organza, tulle, silk.

In addition to the main composition of opaque curtains, one more curtains made of opaque companion fabric are necessarily involved in the design of the window. By the way, a light transparent or translucent fabric is also necessary if the decorator used several curtains from different types of fabrics.

Tacks are another essential item. And not so much in a functional sense, as in the artistic: they give the classic composition of curtains the necessary "sculptural". They are decorated with silk tassels, artificial flowers. And the last significant detail in the decoration of the window - fringe with pompons.
