There are many ways to decorate curtains yourself using homemade decorations. Many of them are done very simply and quickly, but they turn out to be very original and creative. Some people prefer not to buy, but to make such attractive things with their own hands.

You can decorate the curtains very nicely with woven elements. These can be the remains of various textile materials. This method of decoration is considered one of the simplest, but it does not differ in great cheapness.

After sewing any wardrobe items or other things, many multi-colored woven scraps very often remain. They make lovely curtain decorations. For example, you can make charming flounces from such textile elements, or make a beautiful edging.

It is possible to make a chic decorative braid for curtains from fabric. This detail will play the role of a creative pick-up for the curtain. To do this, you need to take only 3 different pieces of thin woven fabric, about 10 cm wide and 1.5 m long. The prepared stripes should be folded in half, and then carefully stitched along their entire length. Then the workpieces are turned inside out and ironed. Simply put, you get three neat belts. Their edges will need to be folded together and then tied into a knot. Next, you can weave an original fabric braid. The other edge should also be tied in a knot. If the product is short, it can be made longer with a ribbon of a suitable shade or a beautiful chain.

From the same fabric that was used earlier, you can make 3 or 5 roses, sew a few leaves. Leftovers from artificial flowers will do. From these components it will turn out to form an original bouquet, and then sew it on to the finished braid. The result is a chic curtain decor. Very beautiful woven decorations are obtained from organza, tulle, satin, silk.

Even the simplest and dull-looking curtain can become very bright and sparkling if decorated with beads. To do this, you can prepare a dense thread of a golden or silver shade, make segments from it, the length of which will correspond to the length of the curtains. The number of these bases will directly depend on the width of the window opening and the wishes of the master who decorates the curtains.

Sort the beads carefully, choosing larger and smaller parts. You can also sort by decor colors. Next, the beads need to be strung in a certain selected order, which the master can pick up on his own.

To decorate the curtains, the beads should be strung on threads, not one after the other, as is the case with the neck accessory, but leaving small gaps. Tie a knot under the bead every time. The length of the gaps can be adjusted at your discretion. When all the beads are fixed, you get spectacular garlands. Loops should be formed at the ends of the warp threads and attached to hooks on which the curtains themselves hang. Thus, you will get a kind of curtain made of beads over the main fabric.

Curtains decorated with buttons will look very original and stylish. They can be strung on a special lace or ribbon, adhering to a chaotic order. In this case, you should try to evenly alternate small and large components. The lower half of such a decorative element can be tied into an elegant bow or made in the form of a cord with a pompom. The resulting beautiful tape is fixed on the cornice or attached as an attractive garter. The alternation of several jewelry of this type, but with different lengths, will look very impressive.

There are a lot of curious do-it-yourself curtain decorating workshops at home, but nothing beats decorations made using the macrame technique. In accordance with it, the threads must be woven in a special way. The result is stunning jewelry that looks very creative and unusual.

Adhering to the macrame technique, you can make elegant lambrequins, hooks and original garters. To simulate such components, the threads are neatly intertwined with each other, forming unusual patterns.

Different decorations for curtains will look harmonious in different rooms. Let's figure out in detail which options are more suitable for certain conditions.

• When decorating a cozy and stylish bedroom, it is advisable to try to create the most calm and peaceful atmosphere. This suggests that it is advisable to avoid too much "flashy" decor on the curtains. In the bedroom, it is best to decorate the curtains with small charming brooches, ribbons, cords with dull decorations. Fluffy pom-poms and tassels will fit well here. If grips and garters are used, they should be removed as easily as possible so that the windows can be completely covered from sunlight.

• When designing an attractive interior in the kitchen, it is recommended to avoid massive and overweight decorations (such as pom-poms and brushes). A lot of dust and dirt will stick to such objects here, so it is better not to use them. In the kitchen, the simplest garters, bows with ribbons, braid, rings look best. To make the interior more lively and vibrant, it will turn out through neat applications made in the floral theme.

• Rich decorations can be used to decorate the living room. Volumetric lambrequins, massive brushes, elegantly decorated hooks that form falling folds will look very interesting and beautiful here. If you need to draw more attention to the window, spectacular brooches can be used to decorate the curtains.

• In the children's room, it is worth placing a calm decor that the child will like. Figures of different animals fixed on the cornice, applications depicting the characters of your favorite cartoons and books on the curtains will be appropriate. It is better to refuse from too small and lost hardware components, choosing larger elements instead.

The right decorations can completely change the look of curtains on windows. Consider some illustrative evidence of this.

• In a light interior, where there is a snow-white imitation of brickwork on the walls, pale gray curtains with tiny white splashes will look amazing. For decorating such neutral curtains, a pair of voluminous grabs in the form of white bows is perfect.

• Dark burgundy or dark purple curtains of high density will look very solid and presentable if supplemented with large volumetric brushes of light shades. The latter can be stretched along the entire curtain, pulling down with tassels on one of the sides. A very rich combination will come out that will suit many interiors.

• Golden blackout curtains, complemented by beads of bronze and white shades, will look elegant and luxurious. The latter can play the role of not only ordinary decoration, but also an attractive pick-up for canvases.

• Neat hooks made of satin ribbon look cute and attractive. These components can contrast with the curtains or differ from their color by just a couple of shades. Ribbons can be tied in the form of bows or simple aesthetic knots.
