As well as questions about the choice of furniture, flooring and wallpaper, parents are concerned about the choice curtains equipping nursery the room daughters... And for good reason. Curtains- an important detail of the interior rooms and they are really worth paying close attention to. A window for children is a door to the outside world, and curtains- framing. It depends on them how harmonious and complete the interior looks, what kind of light will be in the room during the day, how well the child will sleep at night and how he will behave. It is worth considering several aspects of the selection of window textiles for the nursery.

Curtains in the nursery for a girl must be matched to the style of the room

This is an extremely important factor for the baby's health. Curtains should be made of high quality and natural materials. It is necessary that the fabric does not accumulate static electricity, and also does not dye. It is worth taking a closer look so that the curtains are made conscientiously, do not crumble in the hands, do not disintegrate into fibers and thread. Before you hang the curtains in the room, they must be washed to get rid of shop dust, germs and odors. Washing is also a criterion for checking the material. The fabric after washing should not fade and deform.

Practicality

It is worth choosing curtains that are simple in cut and without complicated draperies in order to protect the health of your baby. In the abundance of folds, dust subsequently accumulates, which can affect the health of the child and cause allergies.

Children's curtains should be practical.

In addition, in the future you will make your life easier, because you will have to iron the curtains after washing, and you need to carefully monitor the cleanliness in the nursery and iron every fold, which with a complex cut of curtains will take a lot of time and effort.

Did you know that ironing is another disinfection method? Heat treatment kills microbes that get onto the fabric from the air and get stuck between the fibers. Therefore, every textile product in the nursery must be ironed after washing.

You should also avoid buying heavy curtains to make it easier for yourself and the curtain, which will be the support for the curtains.

Security

Small children explore the world through touch, but since their motor skills are not yet developed to the required degree, they taste everything. In the interests of the child's safety, avoid small details on the curtains, such as beads, artificial flowers, fringes, appliqués, etc. If curtains are already selected by the presence of such elements, make sure they are higher than the child can reach and are tightly sewn. Also, do not buy unnecessarily long curtains: a child can get tangled in them and get scared, and the fabric on the floor is a secluded home for dust and pathogenic microbes.

For the same reason, it is worth taking seriously the choice of the cornice. The child may be interested in curtains or simply play too much, so the cornice must be securely fastened in order to withstand the load.

It is also worth paying attention to fire safety. The material of the curtains should not succumb to fire, so as not to ignite, thereby cutting off the path to the window during a fire.

Sun protection

This is also an important aspect, because sunlight is extremely important for a child. It is worth choosing a light and transparent tulle in a children's room so that the light can freely penetrate the room. Translucent drawings are welcome: when playing with light, they will give light shadows on the walls and floor. Avoid patches on fabric, however, as their shadows can scare the girl and turn into nightmares. But the fabric of curtains, on the contrary, should be chosen denser so that not a single reflection of a passing car slips into the room. Darkness at night will ensure a sound sleep for your baby.

It is better to choose curtains with a pattern with care so as not to scare the baby at night.

Black-out fabrics are suitable for this and the previous point: they do not transmit light, do not burn.

Style

Curtains shouldn't be out of style in the room. If you want to make your nursery in a minimalist style, then you should choose curtains of simple cut that follow the shape of the window. If you want more sophistication, then you can pick up roller blinds, as well as find or order curtains with an element found in the room (flowers, animals, insects), so that they will harmoniously fit into the interior. You can purchase several items to change with the seasons or during the wash. This idea also makes practical sense: the windows will not be empty, and the room will have a neat appearance at any time.

The style of the curtains can be based on the details of the textiles, walls and floor of the room.

Age

An important detail is the age of the child. The girl will spend most of her time in her room, playing, studying and doing hobbies, so you need to make the room as comfortable as possible so that it does not adversely affect the child's mental state, but at the same time take into account the taste preferences of the future tenant of the room.

Bright colors can lead to overexcitation of the child.

Rooms for the little ones

Already in newly born babies, you can understand their character, evaluate their behavior. If the child is loud and restless, then it is advisable to avoid bright colors in the room so that they do not excite an already restless baby. In this case, it is better to choose curtains in pastel colors, they will give the room the comfort and tranquility that are important for the baby. It is not necessary to take the boring cream and beige shades; instead, lavender, pistachio, pink or blue are preferred.

Delicate shades when choosing wallpaper for the little ones

If the child, on the contrary, is sluggish and reluctant to play, then you can stir him up with "fresh" flowers in the nursery. It is important that there are no flashy and overly bright colors: they cut into the sensitive eyes of the child. In this case, muslin curtains are perfect. Layers of translucent fabric will create a magical atmosphere and prevent colors from standing out too much in the interior.

Curtains in the room for little ones should have a delicate shade.

You can organize wide hooks and bands to be able to adjust the brightness of the light in the room, just make sure they are securely fastened.

An interesting fact is that babies up to four months old can only distinguish four colors: red, yellow, green and blue, without differentiating them by shades. But this does not mean that you need to focus your attention only on these four colors: the child is growing, and so is his color spectrum.

Primary school girls' rooms

At this age, girls strive to be like the princesses they saw in books and TV, so the best option would be to create their own home kingdom. The curtains will take a direct part in this venture. Draperies on curtains, strings and ribbons look wonderful - this will add grace to the room. However, you can opt for rich fabrics and ruffles to give the room a royal chic, but within reasonable limits. You should definitely take a closer look at the interior: if there are enough decorative and bright elements in the room, then the curtains should be chosen concise. If there is little brightness and outstanding details, then this can be corrected with the help of curtains and a color accent on them.

High School Girls Rooms

By this age, children begin to form their own opinions. When creating a nursery, you should listen to the girl. When buying curtains, it is advisable to choose several options and offer them to your child. The most popular shades are pink, turquoise and lilac. Also, it will not be superfluous to move away from the former simplicity and uncomplicatedness and add bright patterns in the form of geometric shapes, lines or cartoon characters. Such curtains will give the room an original look and breathe freshness into it.

When decorating a room, you can choose a romantic style. It is worth choosing graceful curtains in soft shades and with a minimum of prominent details. Curtains with floral images (buttercups, cornflowers, roses, daisies, etc.) are perfect for a country-style room.

For a pink room, it is better to choose white curtains.

As for the form, here it is better to choose practical curtains, without pomp and ruffles. English curtains are perfect: they are functional and at the same time have a modern design, which the girl will certainly like.

Rooms for teens

During adolescence, girls are vulnerable and impressionable. Due to the psychological characteristics of adolescence, they need to have a "shelter" from the outside world. It is this "fortress" that teenagers consider their room as their territory. Therefore, it is necessary to create it only together and without amateur performance: the girl may not like it, so hot-tempered during this period. Child's taste and practicality play a big role here. In terms of practicality, Roman or roller blinds are suitable: they are original in appearance and convenient to use, and have the ability to adjust the light and fix the curtains in a raised form. The latter fact is important, since it will ensure the use of the surface of the window sill for practical purposes.

Curtains in a teenage girl's room should match her taste

The color scheme varies depending on the taste preferences of the teenager, but psychologists advise against choosing bright colors such as orange, scarlet and crimson. It is also worth giving up dark, depressing colors: gray, black, dark blue, purple and burgundy. It is advisable to avoid aggressive figures: large rhombuses, square triangles and monotone stripes. Psychedelic drawings and monochrome are also discouraged.

The main thing

But despite the age of the girl, you need to understand that the nursery is a separate world in the apartment, where each thing should be unique and correspond to the tastes of the hostess. In many ways, the furnishings of the room affect the further character of the child, so you need to carefully select things for the nursery. It is imperative to take into account the quality, safety, practicality and appearance of things in order to avoid unnecessary and low-quality purchases. Curtains are an integral part of the interior and play an important role in the morning and evening rituals not only for adults, but also for children. Therefore, you should not close your eyes to this detail of the room.
