Not so long ago, floral print curtains were not so popular and were associated with something from the past. Their unexpected appearance in a modern apartment would rather resemble a grandmother's hut, or a country cottage, where everything that is cheaper settled.
Now, with the advent of fashion for French Provence and vintage styles, this opinion about floral patterns on curtains has changed.

Floral curtains did not come alone, taking with them from the provinces of Artrois and Alsace crystal-clear interiors in milky white tones, old shabby furniture, angels and fragrant bunches of August herbs.

Floral curtains are back. They personify a gentle and bright mood, reminiscent of summer rural evenings filled with aromas. Lightness and anticipation of the holiday fill the space of the room where the floral curtains live.

In what interior styles are curtains with flower prints appropriate?

There are several styles where curtains with a pattern of flowers complement the interior or become an integral part of it.

rustic country style

Rural floral motifs are typical for country style in general, with any geographic reference - whether it is America, which complements the floral pattern with checkered motifs, or restrained Britain, which prefers dry, withered meadow grasses with soaring birds against an olive background to bright roses.

Large or small, flowers can be present in all interior items, on walls, in accessories and, of course, in the abundance of textiles that accompany romantic style provence Curtains with flowers evoke cosiness, a feeling of rustic silence and a little sentimentality.

Vintage

A pattern of small flowers, not too colorful on the fabric, suits the vintage style. From simple field to exquisite roses - but always suitable for wallpaper, under the overall tonal solution of the interior. Their color can merge with the surroundings or contrast, but the overall style must lose the rustic naivety, exchanging it for the mystery of antiques.

This style also applies to the rustic, but implies more sophistication and charm. The floral pattern on the curtains remains pastel and not conspicuous. Shades such as olive, pale pink, lavender, blue are preferred.

Too frequent drawing, which is characteristic of the country style, gives way to a rarer one. Flowers alternate with ornaments and monotonous patches of fabric.

Shabby chic roses

These two styles are created with the help of materials and accessories that bring the atmosphere of antiquity into the interior. Furniture with simple shapes or vice versa, in an exquisite design, with scuffs and textiles with simple ornaments, create a retro style. In textiles, a pattern with polka dots, with a motif of herbs, a cucumber, and of course a flower is appropriate.

The shabby chic style is characterized by a pattern on textiles in the form of sugary roses, softened lines, and a predominance of light or white tones. All this creates the direction of shabby chic.

English or Victorian style

The English have long been known for their love of the theme of the garden and flowers. This is fully reflected in the textiles of the dwelling. Such an abundance of floral prints is not found in any of the stylistic directions.

Victorian style involves a bold mix of different botanical and floral themes in the interior of the room. Textiles are combined with completely different flowers in furniture upholstery- birds and roses, on the walls, in curtains, in accessories. But such a variety of floral themes creates a natural variegation, which is characteristic of nature and the style called English.

Modern style

Modern laconic style also willingly accepts curtains with flowers. But the flowers are more accentuated, they are large, sometimes huge, located on a plain background. Variety of colors is not welcome. Fashionable curtains can be made in combinations of white or gray with black, brown with beige, different close shades.

Design tricks for floral curtains

If the design of the room involves many details, then the curtains can be presented in combination. For example, a short curtain with small roses and long curtains, matching the wallpaper.
