Modern systems fasteners for curtains are in themselves an interior decoration. The range is represented by a variety of models with carving, inlay, original form, with unusual painting, etc. But in order for the design of the space to be truly original and exclusive, designers recommend considering an individual decoration of the cornice.

Decorating Ideas

There are many decorating options, it is hardly possible to cover everything within the framework of one article, we will try to talk about the conceptual design techniques on which the rest of the design is built.

You can update the cornice with your own hands with the help of ready-made decor or you can come up with and make decoration yourself

Blenda

A hood is a decorative plastic tape, in rolls, maximum length a single piece of 60 m. Gluing or attaching it to a special lock is the easiest way to decorate a cornice. Suitable for baguette models, with a smooth front. You can cut the bar yourself to size and attach the overlay.

A very convenient decoration option if you bought a curtain mount, but it does not fit the interior or you want to update an existing baguette. Decorative tape on the cornice can imitate natural materials, precious woods, carvings, ornaments, and be decorated in a modern style.

paint

Painting the cornice to match the curtains is a quick, economical, creative way to decorate. The idea is suitable for decorating rods made of wood or metal, as well as for a baguette. The surface is pre-sanded with a fine abrasive so that the paint does not peel off later. For the strength of the decorative layer, it is recommended to apply a primer.

When preparatory work finished, the cornice is painted in desired color. For this purpose, acrylic paints or compositions from a spray can are suitable. After applying the base layer, a pattern can be applied using a stencil or freehand with a brush. Next, the coating is fixed with a transparent varnish. Such an idea helps not only to decorate the curtain mount, but also to change the geometry of the space. When the curtains and cornice are the same color, it visually raises the ceiling, the room seems higher.

A wooden or plastic baguette can be painted antique, applied to the base color with gilding, patina. Also, use ready-made paint sets with different effect: craquelure, velor, under the skin, metallics, mother-of-pearl, etc.

For decoration, lace, tulle strips, self-adhesive decorative ribbons, beads, artificial rhinestones and even beautiful buttons are suitable.

Do not be afraid to show your creativity, experiment, combine different materials

Decoration with flowers

Artificial flowers, imitations climbing plants- a great idea for decorating ceiling and wall cornices. Finished branches are attached to the bar with paper clips or decorative clips. In order to save money, you can make flowers from corrugated paper with your own hands, and connect them into a composition using a fishing line or thin wire wrapped in the same paper.

Rigid lambrequins

Lambrequins are a traditional way to decorate a cornice. Usually they come with curtains, but you can make a separate composition. As a rule, this is an applique or embroidery on a bandeau, which can be ordered by individual project, buy ready-made or do it yourself.

Exclusive lambrequin - accent, decoration and highlight of the interior

Openwork lambrequins have become a real find for decorating cornices with your own hands. Accessories are sold in rolls, by the footage, come in different widths. There are piece models for openings of standard length. Color palette small, but thought out for all styles, so you can always choose a decorative tape, if not for the color of curtains, then for furniture, floors, upholstery.

Figures and accessories

Very original idea for decoration - attach or plant a figurine or soft toy on the cornice, multi-colored butterflies, birds, dragonflies, bees look beautiful. The choice of accessories is huge, these are stylized animals, ballerinas, and fairy-tale characters.

Accessories can be bought at the store, or made by hand, cut out of paper, strung with beads, crocheted

Decorating a cornice is an interesting and creative process, you can get by with ready-made solutions or show your creativity. Do not be afraid to experiment, but the decor should be in moderation. Remember the combination of colors, the size of the cornice and the proportions of the room: in low rooms, the upper decor is recommended in the color of the curtains, if the space has very high ceilings, then you can hang a wide lambrequin a few tones darker than the main canvas.

Not a single window opening is complete without a cornice, which, in addition to its immediate functions, also performs a decorating role in shaping the entire interior in the room. A wooden cornice fits perfectly into the design of not only apartments, but also in the style of a country house. There is a wide range here various forms and colours. A wide variety of models allows you to choose the most best option both for light curtains and for heavier ones, combined curtains. To give a wooden cornice is the best option, as the product does not require excessive maintenance, and at the same time retains its original appearance long years.

Product classification

As a rule, before purchasing such a product, it is necessary to determine the method of its installation, as well as what the material of the curtains will be. In addition, it is worth paying attention to which particular room the cornice will be made for. If you make a rash choice, then there is a risk of decorating the room tastelessly and incorrectly.

In order to choose the best option, you should use the following classification:

• First of all, you need to decide on the method of attachment. The cornice can be mounted on the wall: directly above the window opening, or to the ceiling. For spacious rooms with high ceilings, it is better to choose a wall mounting method, and for small rooms, a ceiling installation option is more suitable.

• External design of the product. The most popular are models equipped with an external decorative strip that hides the fasteners of the curtains. Very often, such products are additionally decorated with decorative carvings.

• Curtain option. For fastening curtains can be used: rings, loops, clips, eyelets.

• Number of rows. In this case, we are talking about combined curtains. The most popular option is to use light curtains for the daytime, and thicker heavy curtains for the night.

• In addition, it is desirable to pay attention to the type of wood. If, when making a cornice with your own hands, you give preference to soft varieties of wood, then the product can be supplemented with beautiful carvings, since such rocks are easy to process. Heavier woods such as beech, larch and mahogany will require additional fasteners.

Products made independently will stand out noticeably against the background of factory models. When making a similar element with your own hands, there is no need to process it excessively. In some cases, the rough appearance of this accessory will be more relevant for decorating a summer house or a country house. It is worth noting that when using an untreated cornice, you should consider more reliable methods of fastening the curtains, as the curtains will be more difficult to move.

It is worth noting that the price of this accessory is not so high, but it will be much more pleasant to decorate the interior in country house with your own hands.

Homemade cornices

Such an accessory is quite simple to make with your own hands. In this case, such a decision can most often be made not because of the cost of the finished product, but rather because of the desire to create a unique thing. At the same time, in terms of practicality and functionality, home-made models are in no way inferior to purchased counterparts.

For the simplest model, you will need to assemble a U-shaped box from small planks, but at the same time, fasteners for curtains will have to be purchased additionally from the store. The slats on the box can be decorated with decorative carvings or some kind of pattern.

To make another model with your own hands, you can use a regular handle from a shovel or rake. It will need to be varnished and fixed over the window opening. When using such 2902 curtain fasteners, rings can be used, preferably wooden. Along the edges, such a product can be decorated with additional cone-shaped elements.

When making a window opening in a country house, all this looks very attractive. You can make this accessory from any improvised means, in this case, everything is limited only by the completeness of your imagination. At the same time, a product made by oneself will please the eye and warm the soul from the fact that you independently designed the interior in the room without resorting to the help of designers.

Having only a jigsaw and a drill from tools, and a spruce board and a rake handle from materials, you can make a beautiful cornice for a country window.

Once my mother-in-law bought a new rake handle, but it turned out to be too thick and short. And at that time I decided to make a cornice for a window on the second floor of the cottage. Of course, you can say that the cornice is easier to buy. But when, after the construction of the dacha, you have a large amount of leftover materials, then your hands just itch to put them into action.

Let's start making a ceiling cornice

Having measured the width of the window (110 cm), as well as the length (130 cm) and diameter (30 mm) of the handle, I set to work. The front side of the cornice (front board blank) and the sidewall was sawn out of a purely planed spruce board 20 mm thick and 140 mm wide. I chose the length of the front board equal to the length of the round handle - 1300 mm.

Sidewall made square shape- 140 x 140 mm. The holes in the sidewalls for the handle were drilled with a 032 mm hole saw so that the 30 mm handle entered them freely and was fixed with screws. In the trailing edges of the sidewalls, I cut out recesses for the heads of the fastening hooks with a knife and screwed the metal hangers.

The facade board of the cornice was decorated with semicircular cutouts. All details of the cornice were carefully sanded before varnishing and assembly. After processing with sandpaper, a beautiful texture of spruce wood appeared. I regret one thing - that in time (before varnishing) I didn’t think of painting the cornice.

Do-it-yourself cornice rings

How to make rings for the eaves, I came up with a long time ago.

First, with a hole saw with a diameter of 50 mm, I cut out a dozen discs from 10 mm plywood. After processing the edges, their diameter became approximately 46 mm. Then the disks were clamped in a vise and the middle was drilled with a hole saw with a diameter of 32 mm. It turned out to be blanks of cornice rings, which I carefully processed with sandpaper from all sides. After varnishing the rings, I attached clips for curtains - “crocodiles” to them with small self-tapping screws.

Transparent domestic yacht varnish spread in a container made of cut plastic bottle, and slightly darkened with Tikkurila brown varnish.

Such a container for paints is convenient because the brushes left in it do not dry out, but “live” in the varnish, and after work they do not need to be washed in a strong-smelling white spirit. After all, it is enough to close the container and seal it at the joint, for example, with masking tape.

All the details of the cornice covered yacht varnish, after it dried, a day later, proceeded to the assembly. On the front side, at the ends of the front board, I drilled a pair of 02.5 mm holes, countersinked them under the screw heads with a 6 mm drill. I connected the sidewalls with the front board with self-tapping wood screws 03.5 x 45 mm. I masked the screw heads with glued square bosses and masonry sawn from the same board.

I put rings with “crocodiles” on the handle, inserted 8 holes in the sidewalls and fixed it with a pair of screws. The cornice is ready.

It turned out that the lines of the floor, ceiling, windows were not strictly horizontal, and the cornice seemed to hang crookedly. In the end, I attached the cornice parallel to the window, although the building level showed a slight deviation.

There are many types of cornices on sale, but many homeowners want to have something original in the interior, different from consumer goods. Or the status of the room does not impose special requirements on the interior, and there is no need to spend money on an industrial-made accessory - you can build something from the available tools at hand.

Examples of placing curtains on homemade devices

Consider several options for how you can make a cornice with your own hands with reference to a particular situation.

Despite the small list of functions performed and the seeming insignificance of the role in the interior, the main requirements for cornice devices are quite serious:

• strength - the destruction of the device is fraught with injury to a person or (if falling on a heating device) a fire from the ignition of curtains;
• safety - no harmful emissions;
• aesthetics - due to the visual accessibility of the location of the accessory.

At self assembly accessory, these requirements must be taken into account, as do manufacturers of cornices that manufacture products in an industrial way.

Homemade decorative cornices

Self-made can also be called those products that are made by professional woodcarvers or blacksmiths, that is, accessories of a high class of artistic performance, but made by hand. The cost of such cornices is often several times higher than the price of highly decorative models of industrial production, but at the same time serial ones. We will consider technologies that do not require professional skills and expensive materials, but allow you to assemble a product of a sufficient level of aesthetics.

Cornice baguettes from metal pipes or rods

The most affordable metal suitable for making a cornice in everyday life is water pipes with a diameter of ½ and ¾ inches, both galvanized and black. Most paints adhere even better to zinc coatings.

First of all, depending on the size of the span, choose the diameter of the pipe and the number of brackets. A half-inch pipe can be used on a cornice for a narrow window or door (less than 0.8 m), for a larger span it is better to take material with a diameter of ¾. If width window opening more than 1.5 m, then the cornice device must be mounted on 3 brackets - along the edges and in the middle.

Cornices from a steel water pipe with connecting fittings

Stepping back 15-20 cm to the sides of the side slopes of the window opening, they get the total length of the cornice, and cut off the desired piece of pipe. If there are 3 fasteners, then the cut off fragment is cut in half. Then, at all ends of the two resulting pieces, a thread is cut with a lerk (3-4 turns), having previously removed the chamfer on their outer edges and lubricated with grease.

Branch pipes 10-15 cm long are cut from the same pipe - according to the number of fasteners, and threads are also cut on each side on one side. Then you need to purchase or cut yourself with a grinder from sheet steel 3-5 mm thick supporting "patch" according to the number of nozzles and drill holes in them with a countersink for self-tapping screws. Branch pipes are welded to the patches strictly perpendicular to their plane - with a non-threaded end, the welding seam is ground with a grinder, and the eaves can be completely assembled on threaded connections: 2 branch pipes are connected to the rod with pipe bends of the appropriate diameter, and the third - with a tee.

Option for a homemade cornice made of steel pipe and bends

Important! If a pipe without zinc coating is used for the manufacture of the cornice, then when the components are ready (before assembly), one of the ways to perform them is bluing (blackening), which will give the surface a dark shade and protect against corrosion.

As finishing you can use painting in a suitable color - nitro paint from a spray can or car enamel with a brush. Use oil paint undesirable - the rings on such a paint layer do not glide well.

Watch this video to help explain:

For the manufacture of a cornice of a small span (up to 1.5 m), you can also use a steel bar square section 12x12 mm, which is quite suitable as a curtain rod. To make the bar decorative, a cut-to-size rod is marked in length into several sections, after which it is lathe or with manual mechanical devices perform through one of their twisting by an equal number of revolutions. The hexagon rod can also be twisted around its axis, both in sections and for the entire length.

Manual mechanical devices for twisting metal rods

The rod for the eaves can also be made from a steel rod of circular cross section with a diameter of 15-20 mm. If such an element is subjected to hot forging along its entire length, followed by bluing, then the accessory takes on the appearance of an antique interior element. If the ends of the bar are splashed, they become limiters for the rings, but they can also be decorated with wooden decorative knobs.

Mounted in place curtain rods on wooden and metal brackets

For both types of rods, it is not difficult to make brackets - they can be either made of wood or metal - forged, bent, turned. On sale you can find ready-made components of the simplest designs.

Options for metal brackets

There are no questions about fixing the brackets - they are usually mounted with self-tapping screws into holes sealed with nylon hollows, at the same height from the floor.

Eaves from polypropylene tubes

PP pipes can also be used to make DIY curtain rods. The design of the finished baguette will differ from the accessory made of metal pipes only in the way of assembly, strength and weight.

The product is assembled from the same components as in the case of metal pipes– 3/4” PP pipe, identical elbows and tee, support pads.

Components and assemblies of a homemade cornice made of PP pipes

The assembly of elements is carried out using a special device - an iron, the skills of working with which are acquired after two or three trial connections.

After assembly, the cornice is painted with paint from a spray gun or spray can.

Red copper and brass painted PP-pipe cornices

The products are durable, resistant to most types of household impact, but due to the flexibility of polypropylene, they are not suitable for placing heavy curtains, and for light ones, the distance between the brackets should not be more than 1 m.

Wooden cornice devices

Cornice baguettes made of wood, like metal, are available in various types.

If we consider rod-type devices, then their design does not differ from metal ones - the same rod with brackets, only made of wood. The bar is machined on a lathe from a bar of the required length. Wood can be of any common type, but without knots. After turning, the crossbar is sanded with sandpaper, varnished and mounted on a wall or ceiling using brackets.

Various executions of wooden rod cornices for curtains

The second type of wooden cornice - with a decorative strip can also be made by hand, and it is not necessary to master the art of artistic carving. You need to familiarize yourself with and make a copy of the accessory, but to decorate the decorative strip, use the finished carved decor, which is commercially available in furniture fittings stores.

Important! To decorate the cornice strip, instead of wooden elements of carved decor, you can use ceiling plinth from polystyrene, which is glued to the base and decorated in an artistic way - with water-based paints.

A smoothly planed, edged board 2-2.5 cm thick is taken, and brackets are mounted to it. Elements of carved decor are attached to the front side of the strip with PVA glue, after which they wait for the adhesive to dry and decorate the decorative strip in an artistic way - cover it with stain and varnish.

A cornice with a decorative strip can have a hidden rod or a string-cable for fastening rings in its design.

The second version of this accessory is a design one - installing a plank with brackets (or without them) on the base on top of a string-type cornice device pre-mounted there.

Bamboo rod cornices

Bamboo does not grow in Russia, but at present not only furniture and handicrafts from it are imported from China, but also the bamboo trunks and rods themselves, both fresh and dry. The original cornice can also be made from an old bamboo shelf or wall shelf, if the length and diameter of the rods allow.

Bamboo stems for curtain rod: fresh and dry annealed

Important! The bending strength of a bamboo rod can be increased by removing the top layer of bark containing cambium from the rod - a shell that gives flexibility to the trunk.

If it is planned to use rings to place the curtains, then the transverse thickenings are processed with a file on the bamboo rod, making them streamlined, but it is important not to grind off the excess so as not to weaken the rod significantly in this place.

Homemade bamboo cornices: double-row and single-row

If, instead of rings, braid loops are used that do not move along the rod, then the transverse annular thickenings on bamboo can be left unchanged and even made more embossed with automotive putty, and then painted the crossbar in the color of a living trunk - juicy green.

For decorative design rods of bamboo cornices can also be annealed with a blowtorch, and then coated with a colorless varnish.

Homemade rod cornices from dry annealed and dyed bamboo

There can be many options for additional decoration of bamboo cornices, depending on the status of the room and the class of its decoration.

Cornice fixtures from a tree branch

The selected branch is cut to size and everything exfoliating and affected is removed from it. Then the workpiece is dried, protruding knots are removed from it, treated with sandpaper and varnished - preferably semi-matte, preserving the naturalness of the product.

Depending on the configuration of the accessory, brackets are selected for it and fixed in place, after which curtains are placed on the branch - on rings or loops of braid.

Homemade cornices from natural tree branches

Important! IN wooden houses it is especially important to treat the branch with an antiseptic against insect grinders, for example, Antizhuk, which will protect the building from infection with it.

Rope cornices-shrouds

Original devices for placing curtains can be built from high-quality rope, but it should not be impregnated, such as hemp, otherwise there will be an oil smell in the room.

Such a cornice does not have a universal design and can be decorated in a variety of ways, but at its ends, of course, there must be brackets for mounting to a wall or ceiling.

Curtain rods for curtains

If desired, decorative elements can be woven into the rope, or painted in a brighter color.

Sports equipment combinations

To place the curtains, you can use both an oar and old golf or hockey clubs, but restored and covered with a protective layer of paint or varnish. This version of the cornices is especially appropriate for decorating rooms designed for teenage children.

Rowing paddle as a cornice

The paddle can be additionally decorated with artificial algae. Brackets are made, of course, with reference to the accessory used.

Twin club cornices: for golf and hockey

Such a device is distinguished not only by originality, but also by durability, moreover, it can be fixed on the wall without damaging the inventory, and subsequently dismantled and used for its intended purpose.

Conclusion

If the room has an expensive finish, and the interior is designed in a certain style, then if you are not a master in the manufacture of cornices, it is unlikely that you will be able to do something worthy. But you can safely try yourself in this role, for example, in the country, since for a no-frills room do it yourself decent cornice for curtains is quite real.

The main essence of the article

1. If there is no desire to decorate the room with mass-produced products, you can make a curtain rod for curtains yourself.
2. A device for placing curtains is a simple device, but there are a number of mandatory requirements for it that you need to know during manufacture.
3. The list of improvised materials from which you can do it yourself is wide, but the possibility of using them does not always come to mind by itself. Therefore, when planning to assemble a cornice with your own hands, it is better to know the common technologies for its independent production.
4. When evaluating your capabilities, you need to be objective - do not waste time copying highly artistic models, but make something original for a middle-class interior.

In order to achieve comfort in the room, it is usually curtained with curtains and tulle. Curtains provide darkening of the room and close it from penetration prying eyes. In order to hang them, you need to use a cornice. Cornices are different - both open and having a decorative bar that closes the hooks for clamping curtains.

The process of making a cornice

In order to make a cornice, there is simple circuit, which is suitable for any type of premises. You can do this work with your own hands, for this it is enough to use a steel string, which must be fixed to the ceiling. Hooks need to be put on it (rings with clips, paper clips, etc.). It will be practical, but not very aesthetically pleasing. But all this can be fixed by making a casing that will hide this mechanism.

To make it, you need to use a piece of laminated plywood, the width of which will be 10-15 cm, and the length will be at least 250-300 cm. The size of the length may vary, everything will depend on the width of the window span and the room itself. It often happens that it is impossible to find a piece of plywood of the required length, but in this case there is nothing to worry about. To do this, you just need to increase the required length.

In order to cope with the necessary task, you will need the following tool:

• drill with drills;
• pliers;
• Screwdriver Set;
• electric jigsaw or hacksaw;
• ruler;
• construction stapler;
• PVA glue;
• sharp knife or scissors.

When starting to make a cornice, you need to take the exact dimensions and then transfer it to plywood. After that, you can start cutting the workpiece. The sawing process is a simple procedure. To avoid the occurrence of various chips of the decorative surface, you will need a saw with a small hardened tooth and a small wiring.

To achieve a smooth sawing seam, it is necessary to hold the hacksaw blade strictly vertically. The wider the blade, the easier it will be to achieve an even cut. It is impossible to make a cut exactly according to the applied markings, you need to make a gap of 1-2 mm further than the line.

Sawing must be carried out with light pressure, maintaining an angle of 30-35 ° relative to the horizontal surface of the plywood. Such a small angle will allow you to more clearly maintain the line of cut.

The process of lengthening the eaves

After all the necessary pieces of plywood have been sawn off, you can proceed to connecting (lengthening) the resulting blanks. Since the design of the cornice and its ends will not bear the load, the prepared cuts can be connected to metal brackets with PVA glue.

The edges of the cuts must be sanded with sandpaper to remove all irregularities and burrs formed.

After that, they must be coated with PVA glue. No need to save extra glue can be removed with a rag. After about an hour, the glue will partially dry, then you can make a connection with a construction stapler. Fixing with paper clips must be done from 2 sides.

After that, the prepared structure must be left for 20-30 hours, until the glue dries completely. Then, using a hammer, you need to drown the connection brackets. This can only be done from the front.

If plywood of different colors was used, then to give the cornice a uniform color, it is necessary to paste over it with a self-adhesive film. The color of the film should be chosen according to individual tastes and preferences. Moreover, it will increase the bonding strength of the eaves structure.

To paste over a homemade cornice, modern market building materials offers a wide range of such films. They have a different texture, colors and all kinds of patterns.

Since the width of the cornice to be prepared will be 15 cm, the width of the film should be 22-25 cm. Such a narrow film is not for sale, so you will have to purchase a wider one and carefully cut it. The evenness of the cut will not matter, because. it will still curl on the inside.

You need to glue the film with a soft rubber roller, smoothly moving its surface. This will help to avoid air bubbles under the film, and it will adhere tightly to the cornice the first time.

After rolling the film, it is necessary to wrap its edges. This must be done carefully, using a knife or scissors, you need to cut the corner edge at an angle of 45 °. Then the upper part of the cut must be glued on the reverse side with a roller. After that, the side cuts are glued.

Cornice fixing

The next step is to install fasteners on a homemade cornice that will help secure it. Since the curtains will be hung on a wire attached to the ceiling, the decorative element itself must be mounted on the ceiling. To do this, it is necessary to cut strips 20-25 mm wide, 100-110 mm long from a sheet of steel 2-3 mm thick and make corners from them. After that, mark the points and drill holes in them with a diameter of 8-10 mm.

Fastening to the cornice should be done at a distance of 60-65 cm from its edge using dowel-nails. After that, holes are drilled in the ceiling and corners are installed. If cylindrical grooves are made in the corners instead of holes, this will allow you to adjust the prepared curtain rods.

After that, you need to hang curtains. To do this, hooks or rings with clothespins are attached to the string. The second option is more convenient to use, since it makes it quite easy to remove and hang curtains.

After the curtains are hung, you need to tighten all existing fasteners. This will avoid the precariousness of the cornice and its possible fall in the future.

Curtains should be hung freely, preventing them from accumulating in one place, this will evenly distribute the load on the string and will not lead to its stretching.

It is not difficult to make a homemade cornice, it is enough to have imagination and have a little skill in working with a tool. In the event of a change in the interior, it is possible to replace the top film with another one that matches the color of the new room.
