There is another type of decorative fittings - special holders that are used together with curtain ties, fixing the curtain fabric on the sides, slightly opening the window and forming beautiful folds.

Peculiarities

Hooks for fixing curtains on the cornice are sold individually, but sometimes you can see a special curtain tape with hooks strung on it. It can be simply stitched to the curtain. The fastening elements here are securely attached to the string, from which they will not slip, so this solution is more reliable.

It is necessary to choose hooks so that they last a long time, but at the same time they are reliable. The choice often depends on the type of cornice: elements attached to rings are suitable for round rods, and elements attached to rings are suitable for baguette construction. plastic products with wheels. Be sure to use clamps so that the curtain does not fall at the most unexpected moment.

Hooks are most often hidden from view, so they do not greatly affect the decor of the curtains. They can be used in almost any style and for any room.

Like other types of fasteners, hooks have their drawbacks:

  • the need for additional fasteners or a special cornice;
  • not suitable for heavy curtains;
  • noisy traffic;
  • plastic products break easily.

Kinds

Depending on the design features, the main types of hooks are divided into:

  • Decorative used as decoration for curtain composition. Such fasteners have an attractive and interesting design.
  • Hidden products can be made of plastic, metal or other material that is not conspicuous, the mount is hidden in the tails of the curtains or under the decor of the console.

  • transitional are fixators that are link between hinges, eyelets, clips and eaves. At the bottom of the design there are clothespins for which the fabric is attached, and at the top there is a hook that clings to the ring.
  • Main the hooks act as an independent latch that does not require a companion element.

  • Closed the options snap onto the eaves, after which they move freely along the rod, so the loops on the curtains, for which the hooks are hooked, cannot come off. You can not be afraid when moving the curtain: it is very securely fixed to the eaves.
  • open they are easy to use, they are easy to put on curtain loops. If necessary, the curtains can be quickly removed, while it is not necessary to dismantle the cornice.

In addition to the main group, one can distinguish a decorative accessory that fixes the tiebacks. This product is also called a hook. Such fittings are used to fix the curtain fabric with tiebacks. Their task is to pull the material aside, forming a rounded fold.

The design of these elements is very different. It can be completely inconspicuous, focusing all attention on beautiful textiles, and artsy, when they themselves act as decoration.

The surface of products is often decorated with a variety of images: a flower, an ornament, an animal's head, a snake, a snail, and much more that a design idea is capable of. This kind of hooks are mounted on the wall or window slope self-tapping screws, as well as special brackets. In aesthetic terms, sometimes there is something in common with the design of the cornice. Often they are sold as a set.

materials

Hooks for curtains are made from different materials:

  • Plastic is considered the cheapest. Hooks from it will not be able to withstand curtains that are heavy, but they are well suited to hold airy curtains. The main advantage of such fittings will be the silent sliding and sliding of the curtains. True, over time, wear of plastic is observed, and this leads to deformation and loss of performance.
  • For the manufacture of metal products use aluminum, brass, steel. This mount is considered the most reliable, however, they may not be able to cope with multi-layer curtains. Compared to plastic hooks, they create noise during operation. Need to choose quality material otherwise it may corrode.

The combination of plastic and metal is necessary in order for the product to have all the positive properties both materials.

  • Plastic, iron and metal-plastic hook options are designed to hold light and medium weight fabrics. If it is necessary to use very heavy multi-layered and voluminous curtains in the interior, only eyelets or loops can hold them.

If for some reason you don’t like any of the options, you can make original curtain hooks from improvised means.

  • Paperclips. Try using this stationery to fasten curtains. An unusual variety of paper clips makes it possible to do something unique. For example, you can fasten one to the other, it is interesting to bend, to find an unusual color.
  • Pins. Sewing accessories are also different. Decorative pins are always on sale. Creative designers hang curtains on them. Try it too.
  • Wire. The hook can be made from ordinary wire. To do this, it is figuratively bent, forming the holder itself, then decorated with beads, beads, flowers or other material or decorative elements.

There are many options for making decorative products for fastening curtains from what is in the house. The main thing is the manifestation of imagination and willingness to experiment.

How to hang correctly?

It is necessary to hang curtains taking into account different types structures. Cornices, on which curtains are put on with hooks, are of several types:

  • forged;
  • ceiling;
  • aluminum;
  • bay window;
  • string;
  • rail of the old and new sample.

There are many options for fixing curtains on the ledge. Among them, curtain hooks are the most common option. They are attached to the rings, and also act as independent mounts.

The most common use of this fastening element together with profile cornices, they are mounted on the wall and to the ceiling. It is possible to use hooks to fix the fabric on the cornice-string, they are well suited to round models.

Fixing curtains with curtain tape is extremely simple. A ribbon is attached to the edge of the curtain, which has strong threads in one or two rows. They act as loops. Hooks, caught on them, hide behind the tails of the fabric, as the braid pulls the fabric together, creating even vertical folds, and the level of their splendor can be adjusted.

Features of hooking with curtain tape:

  • ideal for attaching curtains to an open eaves;
  • universal fastening, equally well suited for most types of curtains;
  • affordable price;
  • very long service life.

Weightless curtains that do not block access to the balcony, which will be stationary, must be fixed with transparent plastic hooks. They are usually sewn to the curtain tape. On ceiling models of cornices, which are a tire, the only possible fastening for curtains will be hooks with a roller.

Sometimes, in order to securely fix the hooks, they are sewn directly onto the fabric. Such canvases have to be washed along with the accessories. If the hooks are plastic, then nothing terrible will happen, because plastic does not react to water in any way. It is better not to sew steel hooks, but to use another method of fixing to the curtain. Metal can oxidize in water and stain the fabric with rust, which will be difficult to get rid of.

Before you hang curtains correctly, you have to take into account many nuances, including how to fix them on the ledge. After all, not only the design, but also the functionality of the paintings largely depends on this. Curtains on hooks in this regard is one of the most convenient and versatile solutions. But in order to choose them correctly, you should familiarize yourself with all the richness of the assortment and find the most suitable option for a particular case.

Hooks for curtains - their features

But curtain hooks are the most common of them. We are talking about those elements that are attached to the rings, and about independent fasteners. Most often they are used on profile cornices mounted on a wall or ceiling, but if necessary suitable option can be selected for round or string models.

Hook fastening can be used without a cornice, for this you will need to fix special wall hooks at a certain distance from each other, for example, below are a few photos of this hanging method. Such an option is perfect solution in the case when it is planned to hang a light curtain curtain, which will not be moved during use.

Plastic and metal-plastic hooks are able to hold a fabric web of light and medium weight. When making window openings heavy curtain fabrics, it is better to use metal hooks by installing eyelets on the curtains or sewing pats on them.

The main advantage of such fasteners is that the canvases hung on hooks easily and freely move along the entire length of the eaves in both directions. If necessary (for example, if the curtains need to be washed), they can be easily removed, and if the hook breaks, it is easy to replace it with a new one.

How are they attached to the curtain

Usually hooks are attached, in which loops are already provided for this purpose. Hooks for curtain tape are not included with it, but they can always be found in specialized stores. How to assemble the braid is described in the following video:

Sometimes (mostly this method was used 20-30 years ago) the loops are sewn directly on the curtain, at its very top, without using a tape. In this case, it is desirable to strengthen the upper part of the curtain with an additional narrow (2-3 cm wide) strip of fabric. The only conditional drawback of this method is the scrupulousness and monotony of sewing on a sufficiently large number of hooks.

How many loops you need to sweep or use them on the tape is decided individually. The optimal distance between the hooks is 10 cm. The larger it is, the deeper the folds on the curtains will be when they are drawn, and vice versa, the smaller the distance between the loops, and therefore the hooks, the less expressive the folds will be.

We also offer a video below on how to fix the hooks on the curtain tape before hanging the curtain on the ceiling cornice:

When the cornice is a ceiling rail, attaching the curtains to hooks becomes the only possible option. Hooks for ceiling cornices usually do not come with the rail. They are bought separately, inserted into the tape and then strung into the cornice itself, as in the video:

Classification

Curtain and curtain hooks for wall and ceiling cornices distinguished by the material of manufacture and design. For their manufacture use:

  • high quality plastic;
  • metal (mainly brass, aluminum and steel);
  • metal-plastic is a modern combined material.

Plastic options are suitable for light curtains and average weight. In addition to the most budgetary price among products of this type, they have another undoubted advantage - noiselessness when moving along the ledge. But over time, plastic hooks wear out and lose their shape, which entails a violation of the overall composition. This is caused by the curtains slipping from the hinges due to the deformation of the hooks.

Hooks for curtains in the bathroom can be chosen as plastic or metal-plastic, as well as metal, chrome-plated on the outside as in the photo below.

Metal curtain hooks are more expensive, but also more reliable. They do not deform during operation and firmly fix the curtain fabric, preventing it from sliding down. Their disadvantage is noise. In addition, the characteristics of this fastener are very dependent on the quality of the metal. If the fasteners are made from cheap raw materials or in violation of technology, they will rust over time and ruin the curtains that are hung on them. It is better to give preference to products made of metals with an anti-corrosion coating.

Metal-plastic is the material that is optimal in terms of price and quality. It combines the advantages of the two previous types and does not have their shortcomings. Hooks for curtains made of metal-plastic are more expensive plastic products, but cheaper than metal ones, they are absolutely silent and keep their shape perfectly during the entire period of operation.

Types of hooks for curtains are also distinguished depending on their design. They are:

  • Closed and open. It is faster and easier to hang curtains on open models, but there is a possibility that the fabric will slip off the hook, for example, if you pull it sharply. The closed hooks are supplied with a latch. Thanks to this, the loops do not slip off their bent part. It is also convenient that when washing they do not need to be removed from the curtains.
  • Hidden or decorative. Decorative hooks for cornices are used in cases where the concept of the interior requires or allows for additional accessories that draw attention to the curtains. But still, standard fasteners, not noticeable, hidden in the folds of the fabric, or under the console are more popular.
  • transitional and basic. The main models include those that serve as independent direct fasteners. Transition hooks-clamps connect loops, clips, eyelets and are used mainly on round cornices.

In order not to spoil the presentable appearance of the curtains with possible deformation or corrosion of the hooks, it is recommended to change them every two years.

What nuances to pay attention to when choosing

When choosing hooks for curtains and curtains, you need to take into account their compliance:

  • the weight of the curtain composition;
  • frequency of its operation (moves or hangs stationary);
  • the design of curtains and the interior as a whole;
  • loop size;
  • type of cornice.

Thus, before hanging curtains, first of all, you should find out how long they will last without breaking or deforming and holding the curtains securely in the desired position. In addition, it is necessary to take into account the type of eaves. For example, to round cornices products attached to rings are perfect, bohemian consoles are best supplemented with plastic hooks that are designed for curtains with rollers.

It is not worth saving on curtain accessories without special need. It would seem that the mount is a trifle, but it can nullify all efforts to design a harmonious environment. Therefore, despite the fact that the hooks are very convenient and versatile, before choosing them or any other method of hanging curtains on the ledge, you need to think over the entire design of the curtain composition and its compliance with the overall style of the interior.

After finishing the renovation in the bathroom comes the most pleasant stage - interior design. The stores offer a wide range of various accessories that solve certain problems.
This master class will teach you how to hang a hook in the bathroom on self-tapping screws. The fittings on suction cups do not require drilling the walls, however, the hook will be most securely held by fasteners.

Preparation for work

First you need to outline the places for drilling. It is recommended to make them in the seam between ceramic tiles. When drilling the tile itself, there is a risk of damage to the canvas. And then replacing a broken tile will not be so easy due to its possible absence.
We attach the hook to the desired level and draw points through its holes with a pencil.
We prepare for work a puncher or a drill. The choice of tool depends on the material of the walls. It is better to drill concrete partitions with a puncher; a regular drill can handle brick and drywall.

Drill selection

We select a drill with a suitable diameter. For this case, the size 5x85 mm is suitable. In addition, it is worth considering what type of walls we will drill. For example, concrete will not "take" a drill designed for wood or brick. For such a hard material, it is necessary to win - an alloy of tungsten and cobalt, which in its properties is not inferior to diamond.
You can determine what material a particular drill is intended for by its tip and color. For example, drills for wood have a sharp tip and a steel shade, and for metal they are cone-shaped. The drill for concrete has a lamellar pobedit soldering and a characteristic white color.
How to drill a wall and hang a hook?
The barrel shaft of a hammer drill or drill should not be littered, therefore, before inserting a drill, it is necessary to clean the tool. We bring it strictly perpendicular to the wall, lightly press the rotation enable button. During operation, concrete dust will fall on the floor. This can be prevented by having an assistant hold a paper bag under the puncher while drilling.






After drilling the wall a little, we insert the plastic dowel into the hole and try on its required depth. In this case, its size is 5x30 mm. Professionals use regular depth gauges for fitting. As soon as we get a hole of the required length, we finally fix the dowel in the wall.
We attach a hook to the finished holes, take a screwdriver and self-tapping screws. We screw them all the way. You can also use a screwdriver, but for the sake of two self-tapping screws it makes no sense to get it.


At the end of the work, we make sure that the hook does not dangle and is securely fixed to the wall.

Any interior without textile decoration looks unattractive and boring. Even correct selection curtains, curtains and other curtains may not bring the desired result without very important functional accessories - cornices and holders, which help to effectively diversify the design of textiles and solve many additional functions: visually expand the space of the room, provide light access to it, etc. Knowing how to attach curtain holders , you can independently give the interior space a new, original look.

Curtain holders are special functional hooks that are used to hold curtains, curtains and other types of textile decor. They are fixed to the wall and are most often used as a convenient addition to clips, hooks and brushes that help to collect and beautifully decorate textile products. Before attaching curtain holders , you should decide on its model, design feature and carefully select the location of the product. The fact is that modern domestic and foreign manufacturers offer a large selection of holders from various materials, solved in a wide variety of styles and design directions.

Varieties of holders for curtains

Depending on the style of the interior space, the design of the cornice or other system for attaching curtains, holders are selected and a decision is made about their placement on the wall. After all, the textile design of a window opening or a door to a balcony directly depends on the environment. Holders are also chosen to match the decor of the room, curtains and cornices, as an important accessory that is always in sight and plays an important role in composing the overall composition of the window frame.

According to the composition of materials, curtain holders are:

  • wooden;
  • plastic;
  • metal;
  • combined.

Depending on the type of product, its design and severity, fasteners should be selected. Often, when selling cornices, holders are also attached to them, as well as hardware: screws, self-tapping screws, etc., which are optimally suited for high-quality and reliable fixation of the entire structure.

Additionally, you should pay attention to the holder model, which is selected depending on the type of curtains and their design. Be sure to take into account the thickness and other parameters of the tiebacks, functional elements that help maintain textiles on the side of the window or door, and create a beautiful and uniform drapery of the canvas. Their use has a positive effect on the design of the room and its illumination, and also allows you to decorate the curtains, making them more interesting and diverse.

Depending on the above factors, you can choose the holders of the following types:

  • hooks;
  • sockets;
  • magnetic extensions.

Each type of holder has its own design features and type of fastening. Their location is selected depending on the design of textile fabrics, their density and decorativeness.

Previously, it was customary to fix any types of holders for curtains in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe windowsill. However, today window openings can have a wide variety of configurations, up to the floor surface or 30-40 cm above it.

It is also important to take into account the height of the room, the width of the window and its equipment, the opening and ventilation system.

The most common ways to arrange holders:

  • The traditional way, at the level of the windowsill.
  • Above window sill. Approximately at a distance of 2/3 from the floor plane.
  • Below the window sill line by 20-30 cm.

For curtains of short length (up to the window sill or slightly lower), the holders are attached above the lower edge of the product (20-40 cm). Long curtains have much more room for selecting a place for pickups. It should be remembered that the final version will significantly affect not only appearance window opening, but also the entire room.

The lower the pickups are located, the less natural light will enter the room. This technique is usually used when the view outside the window is not very beautiful or if there are problems with the frame.

You can try several options, draping the fabric with wide puffy tails or a slight bend.

The exact location of the holders can be determined quickly and easily using a regular tape or a ready-made tie. It is enough to ask someone close to imitate fixing the curtains to the wall, after placing them on the ledge. It is better to spend a little time and try on the most optimal location for the holder than to redo the work and spoil the surface of the walls.

The holder can be fastened easily and quickly with a drill or screwdriver. In addition to their direct practical purpose, correctly located and correctly installed holders will serve as an additional decoration for any window opening.

This video may inspire you to decorate the curtains in the children's room.

equipping home interior, the owners of the apartment must include in it an important part of window decoration: curtains, drapes, curtains and curtains.

Moreover, when choosing such curtains, as a rule, they try to choose the whole set in one harmonious style: from textiles to necessary accessories like cornices and holders. The curtain holder is special device in the form of a bracket or bracket for holding the curtains assembled.

They can be used alone or in combination with clamps made of linen decorated strips or pieces of other flexible materials. They are located, as a rule, on the walls on the side of window or door openings. The feeling of spaciousness in the room can depend on their use.

The forms of holders can be very diverse. From very simple, horizontal or vertical execution, to composite devices, with ornaments and various decorative inserts. For bathrooms, the concept of "curtain holder" has a broader meaning. It includes all the necessary accessories for arranging curtains, including cornices (rods).

These devices are made from various materials:

  • tree;
  • metal;
  • plastics.

Quite often, various combinations of these materials are used.

Placement of holders for curtains: 1. at the level of the window sill; 2. below the window sill; 3. above the window sill.

Manufacturers of accessories for decorating window and door openings offer three main forms of holders:

  • hooks;
  • sockets;
  • magnetic extensions.

For every form that has characteristics in the design, an original method of fastening and, accordingly, special fasteners are provided.

The type, material and ability to withstand certain loads for such devices are determined when they are selected, based on the intended use, the design of the room and the curtain fabric. For example, sometimes accessories of this type, made of metal and withstanding quite heavy loads, are placed above window openings and used instead of cornices. Curtains thrown over them and skillfully draped create an unusual effect for the decorated room.

It is customary to mount the holder mainly to the wall. Moreover, depending on the type and design, the fastening can be simple, open or hidden, with the installation of a bearing base plate.

Placement and fastening of accessories holding curtains

The usual standard location for the curtain holder at the window is the level of the window sill. Three options for the location of the device are proposed for consideration:

  • on the horizontal of the window sill;
  • below the window sill by 0.3 m;
  • above the window sill, from the ceiling - 1/3 of the height of the room.

However, the height of modern window openings can be different: from the floor to the ceiling of the room or several tens of centimeters above the floor level.

In such cases, the location of the curtain holders depends, first of all, on the curtains used, their fabric and the size of the curtains. The optimal points will be determined experimentally. By changing the coordinates of the curtain holding point, you can open the window opening as much as possible or almost completely drape it, if for some reason you should not open the window view. In this case, it is recommended to take into account everything: from the conditions for opening the transom of the window to the type of flowing folds of the curtains.

The selected installation locations for fixtures (they are usually two - on one and the other side of a window or door opening) are checked for accuracy, horizontality and symmetry. This means that the point corresponding to the geometric center (or edge) of the left holder must correspond to the center (or edge of the same name) of the right one, relative to the middle of the opening. The horizontal marks of both devices, made for future mounting holes, must lie on the same horizontal line - this is checked by the building level.

Attachment of holding devices

It does not make sense to choose dowels and self-tapping screws for installation: they are usually included in the kit of the purchased curtain holder. Therefore, for the upcoming work, you only need a drill and / or a screwdriver, as well as a drill with victorious soldering, corresponding to the diameter of the plastic dowels in the mounting kit. If the walls in the room are “heavy”, concrete, then you will need a puncher for drilling.

After completion of the verification measurements, drilling is carried out on the applied mounting marks. Next, plastic plugs-dowels are placed in the holes obtained. If the drill diameter is chosen correctly, then the dowels enter the holes tightly, under the influence of a hammer. The end of the installation - fixing the holders to the dowels with self-tapping screws.

Now you can arrange the desired drapery of curtains in the room.

The appearance of any room without the right textiles will not look complete. But even if you buy and hang curtains, curtains or curtains of the right shade, texture and design, you still cannot do without various decorative elements.

The most important accessories are curtain holders, tiebacks and cornices. They not only help to properly organize the location of fabrics according to a previously developed sketch, but are also completely independent parts. For example, kanzashi curtain holders are so beautiful that they play a major role, it is around them that the rest of the design is built.

Properly chosen and placed kanzashi and wall curtain holders allow you to properly organize the space, regulate the amount of light entering the room, make the room more spacious and add coziness to it. And curtain holders in the bathroom save space in a cramped room.

Let's take a closer look at these interesting elements. As a bonus, below is an instruction, accompanied by a photo, that allows you to make do-it-yourself curtain holders from discs.

Types of wall elements

Stationary holders for window textiles are specially made and fixed hooks that are placed on the wall near the window and serve to hold curtains or curtains. In addition to independent use, they can play the role of an additional element for clamps, brushes, magnets and pickups, with the help of which amazingly beautiful interiors are created.

As the name implies, the reference element in question is fixed fixedly. Therefore, first you need to decide on its appearance, design features and location.

Modern industry produces a huge number of varieties of holders. It is necessary to select one or another model based on the general style of the room, the color and texture of the fabric, as well as furniture and accessories.

Often, interior decorators try to use holders in the same style as the cornice. After all, it is the elements mentioned above that are constantly in sight, attracting the main attention.

Curtain holders can be made of the following materials:

  • tree;
  • plastic;
  • metal;
  • combinations of the above.

When choosing a model, take care to purchase high-quality fasteners. Sometimes the required number of screws, self-tapping screws and other fittings is already included in the kit.

Pinning Features

Of great importance is not only the correct choice of model, but also its location on the wall. Not so long ago, anyone wall holder, regardless of the shape and appearance, was fixed exactly at the level of the window sill. But modern apartments and houses have a different configuration of window openings, so this option is not acceptable for all cases.

Among other things, you need to take into account the height of the ceilings in the room, the width of the window, as well as the features of its design, the ventilation and opening system.

The most common options are:

  • traditional, when the fixing height is on the same level as the window sill;
  • at a distance of about 2/3 of the height from the floor level;
  • about 20-30 cm lower than the window sill.

If the curtains are short, a higher placement of the hooks is suitable, in the case when the textile is long, it is preferable to place the holders closer to the floor. It should be noted that when a large amount of fabric is used in the design, it is necessary to provide an appropriate place along the edges of the window opening for picking it up in tiebacks or holders.

But it must be taken into account that the lower the holders are located, the less light enters the room. This can be useful when you need to decorate a not very pleasant view outside the window or hide the detected frame defects.

It is best to try several options directly on the spot. To do this, take a wide tape, with which the curtains are assembled into a bundle. Then one person applies the resulting impromptu pickup to the wall, and the second looks at which option looks more organic in the interior of the room.

Direct fixing is carried out without any tricks using a drill and a screwdriver.

In addition to stationary fixtures, holders, reminiscent of well-known Japanese hair clips in shape and design, give the curtains an excellent appearance. Let's look at how to make a DIY curtain holder. Moreover, ordinary CDs, which are available in large quantities in almost every home, are perfect for this. In extreme cases, they can be bought, a small price will not be an obstacle.

The work consists of the following stages:

  1. First of all, you need to prepare the disks. To do this, using a template (for example, a conservation lid), a circle is marked on the disks. It is necessary that the resulting ring be about 2-3 cm wide.
  2. Using a hot soldering iron or construction knife a cut is made according to a pre-applied marking. This must be done carefully so as not to destroy the outer ring.
  3. To facilitate the process, you can make cuts on both sides by turning the disc upside down. After that, the resulting "minidisk" will fall out by itself, without any effort on your part.
  4. The same sequence of actions must be done with another disk, since two rings are required for work, which are glued into one.
  5. For the decorative design of the holder, textile flowers are used, which are a characteristic element of kanzashi hairpins. If you have sufficient skills and abilities, you can assemble them yourself using the components sold in stores. Otherwise, it is advisable to stop at the finished elements.
  6. In order for the plastic ring of disks to have a presentable appearance, it is wrapped with a textile tape of the desired shade and texture 1 cm wide. The free end is fixed with glue, and then everything is carefully and carefully covered free space. At the end, everything is also fixed with glue.
  7. After that, the flower arrangement is assembled into a single whole. For this purpose, previously collected flowers are used, as well as additionally purchased leaves. Additionally, you can take beads, rhinestones and other accessories.
  8. The design of the ring can be anything. It all depends on your imagination and the design of the room as a whole.
  9. To fix kanzashi on textiles, an ordinary Chinese sushi stick is used, decorated with ribbons, flowers and leaves so that it matches the style of the previously made ring.
  10. The finished element is fixed on the curtain in any convenient place.

Conclusion

Within the framework of one material, it is difficult to cover the whole variety of curtain holders. For example, such a useful accessory as a corner holder for curtains in the bathroom, which allows you to efficiently organize space and protect furnishings and household appliances from moisture.

The video in this article will help you get a better impression of all the available varieties.

The window decor uses many accessories that can be freely bought at any online store. The most popular of them are tiebacks for curtains.

Curtain tiebacks are one of the most important elements of decor. With their help, you can not only transform old curtains or decorate new ones, but also logically complete the window composition. They also help to fix the curtains on the sides of the window, which allows more air and light to enter the room. Such decorative elements can be changed depending on the mood or used to bring novelty to a slightly boring interior.

Curtain accessories are indispensable helpers in terms of creating exquisite drapes for curtains or tulle. Depending on how you attach the tiebacks, you can get different effect. There are a large number of attachment methods that will help you create the desired drapery effect. In addition, such accessories offer a large field for creativity and imagination.

How to attach curtain ties

So let's consider basic methods for attaching curtain tiebacks:

Each option for fastening the tiebacks creates its own special drapery on the fabric. The general principle goes like this: the lower the pickup is attached, the more folds you will get on the curtains. The only thing to remember is that the larger the drapery, the less light enters the room. In addition, if you have beautiful view from the window, then by creating deep folds of fabric, you will cover most of it. At the same time, a lower-mounted option would be ideal for those rooms that face a construction site or a neighboring house, or if window frames are unpresentable and in need of repair.

You can also visually change the aspect ratio of the window:

  1. If you want to make the window wider, then the accessories must be mounted lower (approximately 1/3 from the floor).
  2. If you attach the tiebacks high, it will make the window opening narrower and longer.

How it looks like in reality:
