What kind of yellow curtains to choose?

When creating the interior, you can experiment not only with colors and textures, but also with the types of curtains. If you like classics, then stop at the traditional version: tulle and golden drapes, collected by pickups with a brush.

Curtains in the nursery should be made of dense natural fabric. They can be decorated with original drawings. For example, cartoon characters or fairy tales. Rolled curtains of beige-gray-sand shades will go to the bedroom. They will muffle the sun's rays, due to which the bedroom will be filled with diffused soft light. Also, roller blinds are suitable for children and living rooms. If you want the bright sun to not bother you at lunchtime, you can also add shadow curtains.

These curtains, unlike shadow ones, do not occupy a minimum of space, therefore they are ideally suited for small-sized kitchens.

Yellow curtains in different rooms

Most often, bright yellow curtains are hung in the kitchen, because this color lifts the mood, and the kitchen is exactly the place where we wake up and meet the whole family after a long working day. Curtains are especially suitable for country style rooms and Provence. The rustic style generally allows for bold combinations, so you can safely combine green curtains with yellow tulle.

Kitchen curtains should be sewn from a fabric that is easy to wash and breathes.
