Types of kitchen lambrequins
There are three main types.
Hard (bando)
Smooth, firm, without wrinkles. Allows you to hide the cornice and fastening system. It has the appearance of a semicircle, rectangle with a figured or smooth edge.
Soft
A more decorative option. The canvases fall in beautiful, lush folds. Such flowing fabrics can give the room a solemn and very elegant look.
Combined
A layered look that combines a hard straight section with soft drapes.

How to sew lambrequins for the kitchen with your own hands
First of all, choose the right fabric. Yes, natural fabrics are very good, but they also absorb odors perfectly, and after washing they can take a long time to dry. Therefore, more and more often people are buying synthetics or mixed fabrics. You will have to wash it often, so it is important that the fabric dries quickly.
Pliable soft fabric will produce beautiful folds; this fabric is good for a lambrequin that will hang on a “sunny” window.
A hard lambrequin is made of dense fabric, but then it is more difficult to care for it. Frequent washing is problematic, so this lambrequin can simply be wiped with a damp cloth
The following materials are usually needed for sewing: main fabric, lining fabric, cornice, ribbon, decorative cord, stapler, drill, screws, screwdrivers, pencil.
Instructions for sewing a lambrequin:
- Secure the cornice under the window;
- The ends of the cornice protrude 15 cm beyond the side borders of the window;
- Cut the material along the length of the cornice + 10 cm for the side tails + half a meter if the lambrequin should sag;
- Sew the lining fabric;
- Mark the middle of the upper part of the cornice and the center of the lambrequin itself;
- Using a stapler, attach the center of the lambrequin to the center of the cornice;
- After this, attach the rest of the fabric;
- Tie the hanging ends with a decorative cord, half a meter of cord on each side;
- Tie the cord in a bow, straighten the folds.

Forms of drapery of soft lambrequins
Each window has its own form of drapery for decoration.
Coquille
One of the textile elements. The mold looks like a symmetrical cascade, lined with vertical folds that converge towards the middle.
Swags
Or a garland. They form sagging semicircles with draped folds at the top of the curtains. This decorative element is attached to the pipe at the edges or in the center.
Jabot (de jabot)
Exquisite waves hanging along the edges of the window opening and emphasizing its boundaries. They can add completeness and expressiveness to the image of the entire room.
The photo shows a jabot with a floral pattern in the kitchen interior.
Perekid (semi-swag)
They look impressive when decorating tubular cornices. Half-swags look like a vine, smoothly wrapping around the cornice.
Tie
This form is mainly used for wide window openings or for decorating several windows.
Cascade
A draped sheet of fabric located on the side of the curtains. Can be of different lengths depending on the height of the window. In order to give the cascades a zigzag shape, they are sewn with a lining of a contrasting color.
Curtain with lambrequin for the kitchen: types of elements
Surely you have seen curtains, the top of which was a whole composition. Waves, folds, overflows - the window from such an outfit became outwardly large, open, elegantly framed. All this is due to the decorative elements of the soft lambrequin.
Soft lambrequin decor:
- A swag is a semicircle draped with folds, somewhat similar to a shell. It can be either symmetrical or asymmetrical. Proper drapery helps make a curtain composition more graceful and elegant.
- Half -swag differs from swag in that it has a hole at the top. It can also be symmetrical or asymmetrical.
- Jabot is the name given to the side part of the lambrequin, which has a stepped lower edge. Somewhat reminiscent of a frill.
- Tie – this element has folds along the upper edge.
Swag and jabot are the most commonly used elements of lambrequins in textile window decoration.
These, of course, are not all decor options, but it makes no sense to list everything - a lambrequin in the kitchen does not need complex decorativeness. On the contrary, it should be simple, and brightness can be achieved through color or print.
Material
There are many materials from which these curtain decorations are made.
Veil
Soaring, graceful, creating a feeling of lightness. This veil design is complemented with ribbons, embroidery or beads.
Organza
Fashionable, stylish and creative solution. They look unusual and have a distinctive appearance.
Felt
Felt makes denser products. This material is also used in the manufacture of elegant openwork lambrequins.
Chiffon
Light and weightless flowing chiffon fabrics can add grace and elegance to windows and the entire interior.
Capron
Lambrequins made of nylon look quite attractive. This material is very light and airy, but requires careful handling.
Atlas
The noble shine of this type of fabric lifts your spirits. Curtain compositions made of satin create a festive atmosphere in any kitchen interior.
Varieties of lambrequins
There are more than 25 varieties of this type of curtain. Here are some of them.
Conventionally, all these types can be divided into three general groups:
- The rigid type allows you to effectively decorate the top of the window. In addition, with its help, the cornice and the upper partition are perfectly hidden. By design, a rigid lambrequin is a narrow strip of fabric with a seal, fixed under the ceiling. A rigid lambrequin can vary in shape - there are oval, rectangular, and complex shapes. In addition, the rigid type of construction is additionally decorated with cords or ribbons, fringe, and draperies.
- The soft type is highly decorative. Special patterns are created for such draperies. As for the material, sewing a soft lambrequin with your own hands can be done from a fabric identical to the curtains, or a completely contrasting material. Before cutting the material, determine its length - it is 15-25% of the length of the curtain itself.
- You can also sew a combined one with your own hands. This decorative detail combines the rigidity of the base and the softness of the drapery. It looks most harmonious in rooms with large windows.
Kitchen lambrequin design ideas
Unique models will allow you to decorate the window opening in an original way and emphasize the stylistic direction of the room.
Openwork
A colourful, textured and accent element of the decor that acts as an exclusive complement to curtains. A carved lambrequin will add a bright personality to your kitchen design.

Asymmetrical
A window decorated with asymmetry on one side or decorative corner, oblique elements will change the standard composition of the room.
Buffs
These decorative elements can add originality and sophistication to any kitchen. The fabric, assembled in a special way, resembles a braided braid. Puffs are used in large kitchens to emphasize the richness and exclusivity of the room.
With fringe
Swags or semi-swags decorated with fringe along the edges look very funny and at the same time elegant. Fringe is often used as a trim for velvet or taffeta fabrics.

The simplest lambrequins. They are often used together with classic curtains. They are easy to attach, do not collect dust and are very easy to clean.
With flowers
Quite a cute and playful design solution. Floral prints will bring warmth, comfort and a bit of sunny summer to the kitchen.
Lambrequins for the kitchen on a small window
The main principle of choosing a lambrequin for a small window is not to overdo it. A bulky lambrequin will seem like a blurry spot, and can even visually cut off the length of the curtains.
Maximum simplicity of design is the main thing. Therefore, short, rigid lambrequins that do not have waves or other decor are often chosen.
For window decoration in light colors, the lambrequin should have a darker shade that is in harmony with any element of the interior
What such a lambrequin might look like:
- A narrow rectangle with a short fringe. But if the fabric is very colorful, then the fringe will be superfluous.
- A narrow, plain textile rectangle with tassels on one side. That's all the decor.
- Asymmetrical rigid lambrequin, not wide. As decoration, you can use pompoms or tassels with large steps.
- Asymmetrical lambrequin with appliqué. But there shouldn’t be a lot of appliqué, perhaps some small element in the theme - from a flower to a stylized cup.
A decorative element such as a lambrequin can take up no more than 5 parts of the overall window design
It is important that the lambrequin matches the color of the interior. For neutral light curtains, a light lambrequin is not suitable. Therefore, it must match something else, for example, the color of a kitchen unit, wallpaper, corner, or floor covering. But don’t go overboard here either, everything in one color is a lot. This option is also possible: an almost snow-white kitchen (maybe a slightly coffee-milk shade) and a light purple lambrequin + light purple chandelier.

Associated with the sun, it activates and puts you in a creative mood. Brings cheerfulness and vitality to the room.
Blue
The color of the sky, water. Blue canvases create a feeling of calm, comfort and stability. This shade reduces appetite and encourages thinking.
Lilac
Fragile and cool color. The combination of lilac, white and peach will be especially consonant. This will create a warm and cozy environment in the room.
Pink
Shades of pink are suitable for creating coziness in any style of interior. They are associated with goodies, stimulate appetite and lift your spirits.
Lambrequin with folds and folds
The form of a lambrequin for the kitchen can be in the form of a swag with soft folds in combination with a cascade with the same laid folds. If you are a beginner needlewoman and are not yet very confident in your abilities, use the prepared lambrequin projects, which are pictured below. But do not forget that you must transfer them to the fabric, taking into account their sizes.
If you are confident that you will be able to independently develop a sketch of a lambrequin and then implement it, you can wish you good luck. The diagram must be very accurate, preferably using a scale of 1:10. For example, a 5-meter lambrequin on paper will be 50 cm, which will greatly facilitate the process of creating pattern templates. Those who own a graphic editor can create templates directly on the computer.
Having cut out all the details of the lambrequin from the fabric, they should be processed and sewn together. If there are several swags, you need to start from the middle. Pin the swags to the grosgrain ribbon on which the entire lambrequin is formed, with an overlap pitch (shoulder) of 15-20 cm.
Decoration of non-standard windows with lambrequins
Decorating with lambrequins is also suitable for non-standard solutions.
With balcony door
Asymmetry is often used in decoration in order to balance the appearance of the window. This choice will look very attractive and organic.
On a small window
It is recommended to choose light shades of fabric. It is better to use a small design that only slightly covers the top of the window. This option will give airiness to the entire composition.
For two windows
For decoration use harmonizing or contrasting shades. You can also highlight any decorative element with shimmer, shine or pattern.
The process of making a lambrequin for the kitchen
In order for the lambrequin to be sewn correctly, it is worth cutting the material according to the pattern and fastening it with pins. Next we perform the following steps:
- At the level of the cornice we fix the bar on which the workpiece will be attached.
- We sew all the elements.
- We fix the elements of the future lambrequin on the bar in the following order: frill, ties, molds (wavy elements), swags (wavy swing).
- We determine whether the folds and swings are formed correctly, and adjust the height and width of the elements.
- We remove the workpiece. We completely cover the elements using decorative material.
- We hang the workpiece on the bar again. We check whether the curtain components are positioned correctly.
- We sew everything on one tape. The lambrequin is ready.
Don’t be afraid to experiment, but remember that it’s better not to weigh down the windows in the kitchen with bulky design and dark colors.
Before hanging the finished lambrequin, you should first put the hooks on the tape in order to quickly place them in the grooves of the cornice.
Thus, if your kitchen has several windows or a small window opening that can brighten up an original lambrequin of your own design, then using the above recommendations you can sew a suitable product.
Combinations with curtains
Proper combination when decorating a window opening will make the interior much cozier and more comfortable.

Complements the entire design. This combination will give the room a respectable appearance and fill it with wealth and nobility. It is very important to select curtains with a lambrequin so that they are combined with the overall design style.
Curtains (tulle, etc.)
This classic option gives the kitchen solemnity and elegance. Often patterned curtains are complemented with lambrequins with similar motifs.
In the photo there is a kitchen and a lambrequin combined with light tulle.
Blinds
Simple and rigid options will be an original solution and will form a harmonious combination with blinds.
Roman curtains
Choose more restrained and laconic options. Thick bandeaus in the same color scheme go well with Roman blinds.
Roller blinds
In this combination, the lambrequin will soften the neutral appearance of the roller blinds and perform an aesthetic function.
How to change the perception of the size of the kitchen?
When planning to sew kitchen curtains and curtains, you should understand what effect you want to get with them. The choice of style for decorating a window frame in the form of a curtain with a lambrequin for the kitchen depends on the size of the room. Thanks to this design, depending on the length of the curtain and the lambrequin hanging above it, you can optically shorten or expand the window.
In a small kitchen, the window is not decorated with magnificent heavy curtains - they obscure the room and visually make it smaller. For such a room, fabrics made from thin translucent materials with light shades are preferred. At the same time, curtains should not have too bright and catchy patterns.
With the help of curtains you can improve the perception of the kitchen. If the room has a narrow, elongated shape, you should choose fabric with a horizontal pattern. If the room is low, the curtains should have vertical stripes or the curtain fabric should be chosen using the degradé technique (gradient or ombre technique) with the magical effect of a smooth color transition from the darkest to the lightest. A similar effect is created by vertical folds on the lambrequin itself.
For the kitchen, it is important to consider the degree of natural light and the size of the kitchen window unit when choosing a model and material for sewing. In the absence of natural light, the window block is decorated with curtains in pastel colors and short tulle curtains. This design will create an expanding effect in the kitchen.
Design features of a small kitchen
When designing a small-sized kitchen, you should know some nuances.
- For small rooms it is better to choose simpler and more concise options.
- To visually expand the space and raise the ceiling, you should use light-colored canvases and attach a lambrequin to the ceiling cornice.
What is a lambrequin
The word “lambrequin” itself, meaning the drapery of the upper part of a window opening, is of French origin.
Drapery at the top of the window opening
Traditionally, it plays a decorative and practical role:
- masking curtain fasteners;
- masking the cornice;
- decor that creates an attractive look for the room.
Decor that makes the room look attractive
Its qualities allow it to be used as a design element.
Design element
Complex designs look interesting, enliven the interior and highlight the window opening with an attractive frame.
There are lambrequins:
symmetrical; asymmetrical.
Thematic lambrequin to create coziness
Which option to choose based on the parameters of the kitchen itself? Does your kitchen have the correct shape of a square or rectangle, the window is located in the middle of the wall and the furnishings do not require adjustment using special techniques?
In this case, a symmetrical one will fit into the interior, emphasizing the harmony of the space.
Symmetrical lambrequin for your kitchen
Asymmetry represents a larger number of decorative frills and other elements on one side of the window. This approach to design will help smooth out the features of the layout or arrangement of furniture.
Asymmetry to adjust space
Depending on the rigidity of the structure, there are three types:
soft; combined; hard.
Choose your type
Soft – popular and easy to care for
For the kitchen, preference is most often given to a soft lambrequin. It is practical and adds lightness to the interior. The basis is beautifully stitched folds of the panel, which allow this decor to be cleaned.
Preference for soft
Hard - laconic
This design is considered practical. It is inherently hard, so it is used less often in the kitchen due to its difficulty in maintenance. It is made from the same material as the main curtain, but with a durable (rigid) base.
Practical lambrequin in a modern kitchen
Rigidity allows you to well camouflage the fastening system, and in some cases, the cornice itself. The selected composition will visually expand the window, and additional accessories in the form of cords will add elegance.
Masking the fastening system
Combined - original
The combination of hardness and softness will help create a more attractive interior. This option is suitable for a large kitchen that combines spaciousness with high ceilings.

Material selection rules
The use of fabric in the interior always involves a combination of functionality and attractiveness. The choice of material plays an important role not only from the point of view of the interior, but also from the point of view of the specifics of the kitchen.
Combine the material with the overall interior design
The fabric must have such important properties as the ability to withstand repeated washing and cleaning.
In the kitchen there is often high humidity due to cooking, there are particles of fat and gas in the air, so the ability of the material to be washed frequently is very important. If the fabric is spectacular and expensive, but at the same time requires complex care, this is not an option for the kitchen.
Choose quality fabric
For curtains with lambrequins that are located close to the stove or sink, it is advisable to look at fabric with special treatment - fire-resistant and water-repellent.
Choose practical fabric with special treatment
In many interiors, when choosing fabric for kitchen curtains, designers give preference to environmentally friendly materials:
- linen;
- cotton;
- viscose.
Synthetic compounds are used less often, dense compounds are used almost never. Heavy solid fabrics (velvet, brocade, etc.) are also not suitable for the kitchen.
They are too solemn, too elegant and heavy. In addition, they absorb odors, which makes them undesirable for the kitchen.
“Ceremonial” fabrics for room design
It’s very beautiful when the curtains in the kitchen are light, letting in enough light and not burdening the perception of space.
Use lightweight fabrics for good light transmission
Important points when decorating a kitchen with lambrequins
When choosing lambrequins for your kitchen, you should take into account a lot of details: the size of the room, the shape of the window and the presence of a balcony door, choose the mounting method, choose the color and take into account the general style of the kitchen, and also take into account the height of the ceiling.
It is also important to understand that the kitchen is a place in which something is constantly being cooked and fried, which means that steam settles on the surfaces, odors are absorbed, etc. This means that the material of the lambrequins must be of high quality, wear-resistant, and not afraid of moisture and steam. Then the product will last a long time, even without frequent washing and cleaning.
conclusions
Lambrequins for the kitchen can become interesting decorative elements that will completely transform the room. Even simple models will add a touch of sophistication and originality, give an atmosphere of comfort, and emphasize the delicate taste of the hostess. Even inexperienced seamstresses can sew such a decoration for the kitchen with their own hands.
Before you start sewing window decor for the kitchen, you should select a fabric and choose a model. It is important to take into account the characteristics of the room and its style. To begin with, it is better to give preference to simple options that are easier to sew and easier to care for. A simple lambrequin will fit organically into the kitchen space, which is also easy to sew even if you have no experience. Craftswomen who are more confident in their abilities can try making a rigid model. To make the window decor delight with originality, it can be supplemented to your liking.

TOP 6 tips on how to choose the right lambrequin
The design of the window depends on the interior of the kitchen. Everything matters: the size of the room, the height of the ceilings, the kitchen furniture, the color scheme of the furnishings.
Choosing a lambrequin correctly
Is a lambrequin noticeable in the kitchen?
If you think that window decoration will remain invisible to, for example, guests, then you are mistaken. Someone who comes into your kitchen may not pay attention to the color of the countertop and the appearance of the stove, but he will definitely glance at the window with the lambrequin. This leads to the conclusion that the design of the window opening cannot be neglected.
Make it visible to guests
In the kitchen, as in any room, everything should be harmonious. If you have a large set with spectacular surfaces, the window design must match - modesty will simply be inappropriate.
Conversely, an overly pretentious lambrequin in a modest interior can also become a dissonance.
Budget for a rich kitchen
Colors and shades
The color of the lambrequin is determined by the overall color scheme of the interior. Depending on whether the window should play the role of an accent, a suitable shade is selected.
The color depends on the interior color scheme
It can affect the visual perception of the entire kitchen and the window in particular. Depending on the embodiment, the window may appear larger or smaller, taller or wider.
The visualization of the window depends on it
Bright shades are perceived as more expressive; they can stand out in contrast against the background of neutral colors of walls and furniture.
By using light, neutral shades for the lambrequin and curtains, which are the same as the rest of the interior, you can get the “blurred boundaries” effect that has become popular in recent years.
To decorate or not to decorate
The decorations include the following accessories:
- ruffles;
- fringe;
- brushes;
- cords;
- beads;
- artificial flowers, etc.
Choose any accessory
Some models are so self-sufficient that they do not require additional decor - beautiful folds are enough.
How not to overdo it with sizes
What size should it be? Large width or length is not always a plus. The optimal width of the panel is considered to be no more than a quarter of the height of the curtain. The finished length is the size of the cornice.
Ideal size for kitchen window
Which form is better
Which shape is preferable for the kitchen? For a small kitchen, of course, simple. Since textiles here are washed much more often than in other rooms, the use of too large structures will be fraught with difficulties in caring for them.
Simple lambrequin - easy care
Hard ones can be recommended for large kitchens and those that are combined with a dining room or living room. In this case, the presence of a good hood becomes almost a mandatory requirement.
Tough for a large kitchen
The style of the room determines how the lambrequin will look. Only if it matches the style direction, it will become a fashionable accent that will emphasize the thoughtfulness of the interior.
Therefore, we move on to the next stage - selection for a specific style.
Selecting a lambrequin for a specific style
The interior style determines the window design
Almost any style can be used for the kitchen. But it must be combined with the design of the rest of the premises, meet the financial capabilities, internal needs of the family, be comfortable and beautiful.
Short lambrequin over the sink
Most often, one of three directions is selected for the kitchen:
country; modern; traditional.
Country style kitchen window
The style of the kitchen can be with bright accents or completely in black and white. Traditional furniture is combined with warm shades of classic colors of curtains and lambrequins. The colors chosen are checkered, striped or plain material.
White kitchen with black accents
Country styles make it possible to embody a simple style of window decoration. These areas of interior design are natural, absorbing all the best from the ethnicity of America or Europe.

A lambrequin in the spirit of Slavic traditions can be decorated with folk-style embroidery or hemstitching. Light, lightweight natural fabrics will be very harmonious in the design of such a kitchen.
Provence styling allows you to choose plain fabrics in natural colors or with unobtrusive prints - small flowers.

Fashion trends
Fashionable decor trends allow the use of various lambrequins in the kitchen. One of the current trends is floral, unobtrusive curtain patterns that echo the shade of a plain lambrequin. This creates a win-win combination that adds style to the interior.
Floral design in the kitchen interior
Fashion continues to strive for an environmentally friendly environment, which is emphasized in the design by the use of natural or mixed fabrics.
Choose colors in calm shades, or even pastels. If shiny fabrics are present, it is recommended to combine them with matte ones.

Length and window decoration with voile curtains
Due to their lightness and soft texture, voile curtains can be secured to the cornice using loops, magnets, and clips. The most popular option for decorating windows in the hall is a duet of curtains made of a veil and a lambrequin. Two-color compositions made of soft lambrequin and curtains look especially organic.
Designers offer different ideas for using products:
- Frill is the simplest option, in which the lambrequin along the entire width of the window opening is gathered into small folds using curtain tape. This is an excellent option for decorating the interior of a studio apartment in Provence and country styles.
- Folding is a fashionable technique in which a single strip of veil is placed in shallow folds and thrown in a certain way over the string. The use of two-row and even three-row crossovers is very often practiced. Such lambrequins look organically with drapes and curtains.
The veil is ideal for forming voluminous lambrequins. Stylists create spectacular aristocratic coattails or exquisite puffs that organically complement smooth transparent curtains.
