Curtains for giving is best done by yourself. Anyway, all the worn out items of home detour go there. Therefore, so often designers advise to make out cottage houses in the style of Provence or Shebbi-chic .
The curtain in the cottage settles a lot of tasks. She is a great defender from the hot sunlight, annoying mosquitoes and nasty drafts. If the windows look to the south or west, choose a fabric for curtains denser.
Usually at the dacha there is dusty air, why curtains will get dirty more often than in the city. In order not to suffer from this problem, make curtains of non-mark fabrics, and the color palette should adhere to bed colors. So they will burn less and always look fresh and clean.
But, if you wanted to install curtains on the veranda at the cottage, the curtains made of waterproof PVC fabric will be the best solution for a veranda or gazebo. Such curtains are a full-fledged guard against cold, insects, wind and rain. In the room, even you can install heating appliances.
How to sew the curtains to the cottage?
After that choice of fabric, sew the curtains to the dacha. But first, let's see what we might need for this:
- fabric matched to the interior design;
- scissors for fabric;
- roulette;
- Of course, needles and pins;
- and most importantly - a sewing machine.
- We proceed to sewing. The first stage is the removal of the dimensions. Apply the cloth to the window as you would later arrange the finished curtains. In this way you can estimate the most attractive position of the picture and the length and width of future curtains. If the window is too wide, you can temporarily attach the fabric to the studs.
- Next we measure the width of the window. Then we calculate the width of the material - it should be twice as wide as the resulting footprint. That is, if the width of the window is two meters, we need four fabrics.
- Then the length of the window opening is measured. Depending on the desire, the curtain can be either shorter than the opening, or longer, or simply cover it. But no matter how you plan the final look of the product, when cutting, remember that you need fifteen or twenty centimeters to different seams, rims, fasteners, fasteners to the cornice and so on.
- Cut the right size cloth on the floor. If you want to make a pair on the windows, then fold the resulting size in half and gently cut it.
- The material for the curtains does not need to be swept, just fasten it with pins, bending it down a centimeter. And the upper part should remain free piece for further processing. Mark this area with pins. Subsequently, she will hide the braid or cornice, on which the finished curtain will be fastened.
- Approaching the completion of the process - we spend all the bells and whistles on the typewriter. Not yet is it just the seams along the edge of the workpiece, so that the curtain looks neat and beautiful
- We return to the left material in the upper part of the fabric. Attach the outer edge to the inner side. It will be something like a double layer measuring eight centimeters. In order not to "run away", attach the "belt" with needles or pins. And now you can skip the typewriter. Since it is still the front side, the seam will be noticeable, so it can be hidden by a beautiful, but unobtrusive ribbon in tone.
We make ties for the curtains
Curtains will look beautiful not only flowing down, but also tied with beautiful ribbons. With the help of garters, the tori can be given the most intricate shape. Material for such a decor does not have to be in the tone of the curtains. And the invoice can be different. This will give a certain glamor to the new product.
