Short curtains in the interior of a children's room
The design of the nursery should be practical, but at the same time very cozy and comfortable. The improvement of windows deserves special attention, since curtains are an important final stage in interior design. In the nursery, short curtains are very popular. Modern manufacturers offer a wide range of such products, different in design and fabric structure, as well as the type of fastening.
Peculiarities
Short curtains for the nursery are usually purchased during the period when the child is still a preschooler. An active fidget often grabs the things around him with his hands in an effort to learn new things for himself. That is why experts do not recommend decorating a nursery with long curtains.
Children often, playing with them, can get entangled in them or ruin the canvas, for example, by tearing or painting it. There were also cases when children in an active game accidentally tore off the curtains from their hinges or even together with a wobbly cornice, which, of course, does not exclude bad consequences for the child. That is why many decorators and parents, when choosing curtains for a children's room, usually prefer short models up to the windowsill.
It can be either blackout curtains or light curtains.
At the same time, their combination is also allowed, although for the nursery in which the kids live, usually curtains made of dense fabric are not purchased. This is due to the fact that little boys and girls are often afraid of the dark, and therefore their parents do not have to draw the curtains at night.
In addition, such products are an additional source of dust, which can become an allergen and the causative agent of many negative reactions on the sensitive skin of babies.
Materials and design
Nursery curtains are light translucent short curtains or blinds that can scatter sunlight or attract the attention of kids with fabulous embroidery or prints. Manufacturers produce interesting products, enriching the already large assortment of short curtains for children.
Curtains made from natural and sustainable materials such as linen, cotton or paper are especially popular. They will be safe for the child's health and at the same time will look as impressive as curtains made of modern materials.
Also relevant are curtains-blinds made of plastic and wood, which lend themselves well to wet cleaning. Recently, bamboo blinds are often purchased for children, which ideally emphasize the simple interior of the room.
In curtains for a nursery, the design of the product itself is also important. It should not be boring, but, on the contrary, should attract attention and be bright and interesting in order to cheer up the child in conjunction with other objects in the room, as well as help develop his imagination. In the design of curtains for a nursery, bright prints (geometric or with images, for example, of your favorite cartoon characters), as well as embroidery and photo printing are popular.
The color palette of products may vary depending on the style of the interior. The girl's room is characterized by warmer and softer tones, while the boy's room is usually decorated in dark neutral shades.
