Design features
When designing, some nuances are taken into account.
- For small rooms, it is better to choose lambrequins with simple and not large patterns, then they will not look too bulky.
- You should not use wide lace stripes with a large central element to decorate small windows.
- Curtains with openwork decoration will look especially expressive if you play with contrast.
Types of lambrequins
The main types are identified.
Modular
They consist of several patterned compositions of different heights. Using the modular structure, you can create and assemble the most unusual fantasy patterns and designs that will fit perfectly with curtains.
Plank
They are produced in rolls with a patterned pattern that is the same along the entire length. Tape lambrequins can be used as a component or as a separate decorative element.

Applications
They will become an original and unusual solution for interior decoration, curtain ensembles and solid bandeau lambrequins.
Is it worth sewing lambrequins with your own hands?
Any craftswoman can make a product on her own. A novice needlewoman must complete all the step-by-step steps. Initially, you should choose the appropriate style. The best option is a folded lambrequin.
Is it worth sewing yourself?
The next important stage of sewing is the correct calculation of the required amount of material. To determine the footage, measure the width of the fabric to the height of the finished product, then add allowances for processing, as well as the length of the cut. At the end, the length of the cornice is determined, multiplied by the assembly factor, as well as the amount of allowances.
For your information! A coefficient of 1.5 or 2.5 or more is taken (who wants to make more folds).
Next, a line is cut out. A ribbon is sewn on the upper surface of the product, after which all edges need to be carefully processed. At the end, the folds are evenly gathered, and that’s it - the finished curtain can take its place on the cornice.

Properly selected fabrics will dictate the artistic solution for the entire curtain composition.
Felt

Selection of color palette for lambrequin
To choose the right color for a lambrequin, you must first of all start from the tone of the curtains themselves.
Using red color you can highlight the room and make the curtains the accent in the entire interior.If you choose turquoise or blue shades, it is better that the curtains are made in a light color scheme, for example, pale gray, white or soft pink.
A black lambrequin can decorate almost any interior, both in style and color scheme.
But here you should be careful so that the lambrequin does not drown out everything else in the interior. To do this, it should not be too large and not have too many ornate elements filling the field of the lambrequin itself.
You can choose completely different color combinations with black. Curtains of milky or champagne color look very elegant in combination with a black asymmetrical lambrequin. They can decorate both classic and modern style of the room.
If you want to add freshness to the room, you can use a green lambrequin. It will look great with orange or yellow curtains.
In any case, no matter what design is chosen for the lambrequin and what color, it can add elegance and uniqueness to the interior of any room.
