Straight, smooth curtains made from threads of natural or artificial fibers, at the top they are evenly secured to a thick braid, which is subsequently attached to the cornice. These can be curtains made only of threads, or maybe muslin with glass beads or beads, and even a thin lurex thread. Sun rays, passing through the muslin, they beautifully disperse in the room and create a magical atmosphere.

This kind of curtains are hung both on windows and in doorways. Shiny materials shimmer beautifully in the rays of the sun and transform even the most dull and dull interior into a fabulous one. Hanging curtains can be selected for any style of room.
Textured threads, muslin with feathers. Not only beads can be an excellent decoration for thread curtains. Ropes of different thicknesses and with different textures will add variety to the interior. And airy feathers will add a bit of boudoir to the couple’s bedroom.
Zoning with thread curtains
Zoning a room with curtains various kinds began to be used with the advent of apartments with studio or shared layouts. When partitions are inappropriate and take up a lot of space, designers decided to use textiles. And muslin curtains occupy a leading position in this list.
Thread curtains in the interior can divide rooms into zones, for example, in a one-room apartment it can be a living room and a bedroom, or an office and a living room.
On wide doorways instead of doors, thread curtains are also often hung in different versions: both thread ones, and with beads, and even wooden ones made of bamboo.

The living room is not only common room in the house, as well as a place for receiving guests and holding special events. Thread muslin curtains with beads and glass beads will give the room brightness and a festive atmosphere for every day.
They can be used as independent decor, and in combination with contrasting color tulle or curtains.
Kissey curtains in the interior of a high-tech living room will definitely be in the form of thin metal threads, or ordinary muslin in black, white or silver. The classic decoration of the living room will be decorated with monochrome curtains with and without beads. For country and pop art, bright multi-colored models are used. The main thing is that the color scheme of the curtains is in harmony with the entire interior.
Kitchen
The kitchen is a place where almost all the time something is being cooked or cooked on the stove, and these odors are quickly absorbed into the surrounding objects. To prevent this from happening with curtains, choose muslin made from synthetic materials; they do not absorb odors and repel dirt and dust better than natural ones.
Although washing muslin is not that difficult, it is still better not to hang it near the cooking table. And if you still decide, then for practicality use shortened models and high risers.
Thread curtains do not have to hang straight. Kisey drapes beautifully, is gathered into tiebacks and is decorated with lambrequins both in the kitchen and in other rooms.
Thread curtains in the kitchen interior will be especially convenient when used simultaneously with roller models. This great option simultaneously protect the kitchen from overheating in the summer, and for better sun access in the winter.

Children's
We recommend using muslin in a nursery when children are still too small and do not play active games, or for older children who will be careful not to tear or tangle the thin threads. Unraveling the muslin, of course, is not difficult, but it will take time and effort, so it’s up to you to decide whether to hang it or not to hang it.
For a child's young lady, thread curtains made of beads and rhinestones will appeal. They will add magic to the room, and the little princess will feel comfortable and cozy here. Rainbow thread curtains, interesting in their colors, where there are many colors, will not leave positive girls and boys indifferent.
For guys, the option of curtains made of threads with rhinestones is unlikely to be suitable, so classic thread muslin or metal chains become more relevant here. Colored curtains with images of cartoon characters will not leave any child indifferent.
If two or three children live in a nursery, then each of them most likely needs their own private space. You can easily arrange this using thread curtains. Hanging them near children's beds, thereby separating the space of each child.
Bedroom

Therefore, burgundy, red, scarlet thread curtains will come in handy. The bedroom is romantically decorated with muslin, complemented with beads or feathers.
In the bedroom you can use muslin tulle during the day, and in the evening you can cover the window with additional curtains and blinds.
In the interior of the bedroom of a young modern girl, shiny metal thread curtains will be relevant; they can be in the form of thin chains or sequins. For calm natures who do not tolerate unnecessary irritating elements in the decor, it is better to use monochrome muslin without shiny accessories. Likewise, for a gentleman’s bedroom, everything should be strict and concise.
