Recently, we received another order, it was required to sew curtains for an adult bedroom located in a private house. The customer, a spectacular middle-aged woman, who introduced herself as Anastasia, invited our designer to the house and told her wishes regarding future products. They were as follows:
- Curtains to match the color of the room (read about curtains in the color of the wallpaper here). There should be no red, green, black or blue colors.
- The cut of the curtain is simple, without frills, but not without zest.
- The presence of tulle or curtains.
- The room has a separate balcony door, which is often used in the mornings during the warm season. You need to come up with an easy-to-open drapery for her.
- Complete the order as soon as possible.
A separate wish was to choose a fabric with non-contrasting embroidery or a three-dimensional pattern.
Description of the interior
The bedroom was located on the second floor of the house, and was a corner room. On one side there was a huge corner window, almost the entire wall, and on the other wall there was a door, with floor-to-ceiling glass, without additional windows.
Wall and ceiling decoration in the interior was made in the color "coffee with milk". White windows and a balcony door looked harmoniously with the same bed and armchair. On the floor was laid a light brown laminate imitating a parquet board.
Fabric choice
The first thing I did was choose the fabric for future curtains. In our collection there was a beautiful cotton fabric, the color of "coffee with milk", which was applied with a white, voluminous pattern. I decided to use it as for a large window, and for a balcony door. The color of the fabric was in perfect harmony with the decoration of the ceiling and walls of the room, and its pattern was perfectly combined with the white curtain.
Curtain
For the curtains, I chose a translucent, snow-white, airy organza tulle. I decided to use the curtain only on the window, so as not to create inconvenience when opening the balcony door.
Keeping in mind the desire of the customer, I chose a simple cut of curtains, but with some secret. For the window, I took fabrics twice as large as its length. In the closed position, even symmetrical folds are obtained on the curtains, and in the open position, the curtain will look draped in a large number of deep folds, which will give the interior an additional zest. To form folds, it was decided to fasten the curtains to the eyelets and close the cornice with a rigid lambrequin.
In order to hide the fastening of the curtains and give additional charm to the curtains, I decided to use a hard lambrequin, from several layers of the same fabric as on the curtains. The lambrequin forms a textile box, inside of which a curtain and curtains are fixed. I decided to use this design technique only on the window, since the balcony door was already framed with slopes and a stucco cornice. For its drapery, it was decided to sew a Roman blind.
The balcony door has already been framed as an independent architectural object with slopes and a cornice. To drape it, I decided to sew a Roman blind, from the same fabric as the curtains, but also with a little secret. I placed the guide bars closer together than usual. In the open position, due to this technique, the curtain gathers in frequent deep folds, like curtains. The Roman blind was controlled by an electric drive (read about electric roller blinds here), which is located on the slope at the bottom of the balcony door.
Tandem curtains and Roman blinds with the interior
As mentioned above, the decoration of the walls and ceiling is made in the color "coffee with milk". Draperies and Roman blinds of the same tone organically complement the existing design. White curtains and patterns on the curtains are in harmony with the white ceiling cornice (more about ceiling curtains here), the color of windows and furniture. A rigid lambrequin gives the interior an exquisite simplicity and hides the corner transition of windows, as well as the fastening of curtains and curtains. Deep frequent folds on the curtains and open Roman blinds give the interior some zest. In the closed position, the Roman blind hangs in a straight line, completely blocking the door and, due to its color to match the design of the walls and ceiling, is not very striking.
When I was choosing fabric for curtains and Roman blinds, I found a light brown fabric that was very similar in texture and pattern. In order to dilute the coffee and milk colors of the room and textiles, after agreeing with the customer, I decided to sew pillow covers from this fabric, to match the color of the laminate on the floor.
What happened
The result is a harmonious tandem, consisting of a Roman blind on the balcony door and eclectic curtains on the windows. The snow-white curtain brings an additional touch of airiness and tenderness to the design. The Roman blind in the closed position securely covers and masks the balcony door. The mechanism allows you to quickly open the curtain, freeing the passage into the doorway or completely close it if necessary. Pillows in the color of the floor dilute the monochromatic range and harmonize with the rest of the textiles.
Customer feedback
Anastasia K.
I liked your work. As your designer used to say, "style without style." A hard, straight lambrequin and thickly pleated curtains really make the bedroom simple and austere, but with its own twist. The quality of the fabric is excellent, it is even visible to the naked eye. The curtain perfectly scatters the morning rays of the sun and at the same time does not obscure the room. Pillows really "dilute" the color of the bedroom, I'm glad that I succumbed to your persuasion and agreed to tailor them. The curtain on the balcony door is just amazing! I did not expect such an effect! If I didn’t know that there was a door behind a closed curtain, I would have thought that it was a design decision, to use curtain fabric in wall decoration. In the open position, the curtain does not interfere with the passage to the balcony at all and is easily controlled using a mechanism. I am very satisfied with this decision. So, I decided to make repairs in the room of my mother, who lives with me and is ready to invite you again so that you can sew curtains in her renovated bedroom.
The style of curtains is always chosen with an eye on the wallpaper. What kind of walls, what kind of curtains - not in the sense of tone on tone, this applies, first of all, to the coincidence of textures, color balance, play of prints. This happens in the living room, or the bedroom is decorated, you need to choose the curtains so that there is a feeling of a single ensemble.
The most correct move is to take a piece of wallpaper with you to the curtain salon. So you will not choose from memory, but quite clearly. Choosing curtains based only on pictures on the Internet is dangerous. The fact is that there the curtains are depicted under high-quality lighting, but in your room the lighting may be different.
Yes, and in the catalogs, the curtains are neutral - they are not tied to the interior. You also have to choose curtains that will look great in your room. Therefore, going to the store with a piece of wallpaper is a win-win solution. Of course, you still have to turn on some imagination: mentally “attach” the curtains to the furniture, and even including the floor and ceiling in the overall picture.
Another tip - try not to go to the salon or store with a specific option in mind. At least allow yourself the possibility of an unexpected decision. Very often, the installation makes it difficult to see a really suitable, albeit initially not considered, option.
For example, you are going to buy strictly cream curtains with an unobtrusive pattern. Because so with a friend, so beautiful, fashionable and goes with everything. And in the salon we saw curtains of a chic chocolate shade, which simply ask for your wall and coffee table. But the installation makes it difficult to look at a really good option.
Standard beige wallpaper in the interior: what will suit them
Beige wallpapers are more than a frequent choice. Everything is explained by the compromise of the pastel range, which really does not bother, looks calm and balanced. And this is good, because choosing accessories, textiles, looking back at such multi-variant wallpapers, is not at all difficult.
The main thing is not to get confused in warm / cold colors. It is better not to mix them, only pros or people with very good taste can do it correctly. Warm pastel colors are all muted colors, not only beige and its variants. But in the case of beige wallpaper, shades of sand, coffee, shades of baked milk, including “golden” wallpaper, can be considered companions.
Beige is a universal color, and therefore:
- Strict black suits him;
- Exciting lilac;
- spring blue;
- Muted pink.
If you don’t want to leave the line: “beige-brown”, then you can pick up terracotta-colored accent curtains, pale orange curtains, plain purple curtains. If beige is combined with furniture in olive tones, then diluted green shades can be used. Brown-coffee color will look good if accessories of this color are still present in the room.
What features of the kitchen you need to pay attention to achieve a delicious result? The answer is in the following article:
Stylish wallpaper coffee with milk: which curtains to choose
And here you can play with options, ranging from light lemon to rich burgundy. You can try playful blue. It is not true that he always terribly "cools" the room. Often, blue curtains refresh the atmosphere: sometimes it is enough to hang a blue curtain, change sofa cushions to blue ones, and it seems that the room has been renovated.
Emerald curtains with golden decor can also make friends with such wallpapers, if something, again, emerald, is present in the interior. Possibly the seat upholstery. The same pillows in the sofa area, ceiling area (chandelier, etc.)
Try to figure out whether pink or dark blue will flow into the hall or another room. These colors can make a café au lait wallpaper more dynamic, give a room a little "wiggle" and therefore appear larger. This design is suitable for those who like to refresh the environment. Curtains can remain traditional: tulle, chiffon, threads.

The perfect combination of wallpaper and curtains in the interior: photo
The most convenient option is white wallpaper. Combine them even with red, even with silver. Of course, you need to take into account the features of the furniture. If the wallpaper is neutral, the curtains can match either the sofa or the headset. Sometimes there is also a photo wallpaper in the room, which directs the choice in this direction.
When planning a renovation, do not forget also about the combination of colors of the ceiling and walls. In the following article, you will find several ways to achieve the result:
If you have liquid wallpaper on the walls, the texture of such a coating is also taken into account. Curtains should not be out of tune with this wallpaper. Textures must either match or be in the same plane. This affects the overall perception of space.
Try not to combine what only a professional can do with high quality. This is a fusion of floral and geometric, this is a variegation of textures, this is multicolor. More than three dominant colors in the interior is already too much. And it is better that there are two of them, and other tones delicately play along with them.

The combination of milk curtains with different directions
Curtains are one of the design elements that catches the eye. Each style, whether classic or baroque, suits certain shades. Knowing how to combine color with style, you can achieve harmony in the design of the space. All snow-white tones from beige to pastel are formed using basic white.
But the snow-white does not look as cozy and gentle as the color of milk. Therefore, white curtains are perfect for this type of direction as country. The country style is dominated by snow-white tones and decorations do not require complexity.
More milky shade fits classicism. Natural wood furniture will perfectly complement a spacious room, and milk-colored curtains will complement this tandem. Here they can be combined with a golden color, with a fabric that has embroidery or fringe.
If you want simplicity and sincerity to be present, complement the decoration with embroidered pillows and various figurines made of natural stone.
In combination with pale pink, blue and brown, it is suitable for the direction of Provence. In a small apartment, a room decorated in this direction will give the atmosphere of a village house. Milk shade curtains will look ridiculous when decorated in a high-tech style, their best combination in a vintage space design.
To create a harmonious atmosphere, pay attention to details. Below are photos of milky curtains used to decorate different rooms.
Which apartments are suitable for
Milk is a warm shade, which means it will be appropriate for the bedroom. Chocolate-milk color curtains will bring tenderness and romance. An addition will be floor-length vases, decor with photographs and light-colored baguettes. Lighting in such a bedroom should be more natural.
Milky curtains in the living room look perfect in a brown addition (furniture, wall decor, wallpaper). When decorating, pay due attention to the wallpaper, they can be either plain or with non-showy patterns. When choosing gold and beige tones, the apartment will not look gloomy.
Light curtains fit perfectly into the kitchen area. In the interior of the kitchen, they will give it a classic look. The kitchen set should be made of natural wood, it is not cheap, but it will last a long time.
The curtain in the kitchen can be decorated in the American style. An addition will be a bar counter, a dining table in color and bright lamps.
Which lighting to choose
Particular attention should be paid to artificial lighting and give it the right angle. Consider the play of light and shadows from furniture and decor. A room with curtains of milk color can become incomprehensible and faded with the wrong lighting.
To achieve the ideal option, the furniture can be moved at different times of the day, this experiment will help you achieve the ideal result.
A shade with a slight yellowness will give the room warmth, and lamps with white light will make it cold. If the windows face north, use yellow light, south windows will suit white.
Each detail plays a certain role in the design of the room, but the most important thing is to listen to yourself what you want, and then the created interior with milky curtains will delight every day. And returning home you will enjoy pleasant evenings with your family in a cozy and warm room with beautiful curtains.

Thinking and choosing what a bedroom should be, each of us relies on our preferences, sense of style and taste. How to make the bedroom comfortable, cozy, original and so that the design of the bedroom meets all your requirements. If you prefer calm and soft, but not at all boring shades, then a bedroom in coffee tones is for you.
Imagine how pleasant it will be to relax in such a bedroom, you can immerse yourself in the aura of peace and relaxation, and this is exactly what you need. The bedroom is the place where you need to feel privacy, peace and security.
Coffee color has a fairly large range of shades, from light brown to dark almost black. This is one of the most "tasty" colors that allows you to create a unique image of your bedroom.
Along with this, the coffee color is combined with quite a few colors, for example:
- blue
- purple
- gray
- black
- beige
- creamy
- white
Some of these colors and shades can dilute the calmness of coffee color.
Let's look at what elements of furniture and decor will help you realize your plans.
Furniture and walls
If you chose coffee-colored furniture, then the color of the walls can be made blue, beige or white. At the same time, these colors will look equally appropriate if you paint the walls, as well as if you choose wallpaper with a pattern of these colors.
If you prefer, on the contrary, to decorate the walls with one of the shades of coffee color, then, accordingly, so that the furniture is not “lost” in your interior, you need to choose its light shades and colors.
Also pay attention, when choosing a color for the walls, how large the bedroom space is. That is, the design of the walls in rather dark colors suggests large spaces, since dark shades eat up most of the light. But do not be afraid if your bedroom has several panoramic windows and you have also provided evening lighting in several places in the room, namely the central light, LED lighting in hidden niches along the ceiling contour, more lamps or sconces by the bed.
Ceiling
The ceiling in the bedroom can be suspended, suspended or conservatively painted with paint.
If your choice fell on a stretch ceiling, then it can be made matte. A glossy stretch ceiling will help you visually expand the space and “raise” the ceiling in a small bedroom. And if you make it light, then it will support the idea of a coffee interior.
False ceilings will help you realize your designer ideas. Their diversity will allow you to highlight the ceiling and make it a spectacular center of attention. For example, if you make a suspended ceiling in the shape of a circle with a stained glass pattern in the center of the bedroom, especially since the glass will allow you to place hidden lighting.
Floor
In this case, the choice of colors and textures for decorating the floor is also quite large. Gray, beige, melted caramel, bleached oak and dark chocolate are suitable for coffee color.
It is also important to understand what materials you will be using. Parquet, parquet board, the so-called engineered board with scuffed effect or laminate, and finally, maybe it will be a carpet covering the entire area of the bedroom. If you choose the right flooring, it will add zest to your "coffee" bedroom.
A small carpet with a high soft pile in a mocha or purple color will undoubtedly decorate the bedroom and “make friends” with coffee-colored furniture and accessories.
Windows and textiles
As for the design of windows, the modern variety of textiles and other materials will allow you to emphasize the aesthetics of your bedroom in coffee tones.
Depending on the chosen style of the bedroom, cream silk or satin curtains with lamrequin can be chosen for classics, white Roman blinds are suitable for minimalism, sea-green linen and cotton can be chosen for eco-style.
To decorate the bed, you can choose a bedspread and decorative pillows to match the curtains.
Textiles are also used for the manufacture of soft wall panels, for example, for the head of a bed or decorating the walls of a room. Such panels in the color of black coffee or cappuccino will add even more softness and comfort to your bedroom.
The headboard with a large chocolate-colored floral ornament looks very impressive, enclosed in a wide, similar in tone, illuminated wooden frame, which smoothly passes to the ceiling above the bed.
The main thing when you come up with and realize your design fantasies is not to overload the interior with unnecessary details that can break the magic of the atmosphere created by coffee shades.
Coffee shades will give your bedroom elegance, splendor and even nobility, regardless of the chosen style. All colors in the interior should be in harmony and not contradict each other.
A photo
Since ancient times, brown colors have been used in home decoration. This natural coloring continues to be popular today. In our article, you will see how brown curtains look in the interior and enjoy a large selection of photos.
You'll also find the trendiest hues, color combinations, a variety of window arrangements and helpful tips from design experts.
This versatile color goes well with others - warm and cold. It creates an atmosphere of comfort, peace, stability.
Brown curtains soften the interior, well protecting the room from sunlight. There is only one minus: dark tones visually reduce the space, and if there are too many of them, the room will be gloomy.
But this does not mean that you should give up noble dark brown curtains. The main thing here is a competent approach and compliance with the required “dosage”.
Let's look at how best to do this, using one of the most trendy colors as an example.
Wenge color curtains
Like zebrano, wenge is a rare tropical tree of the same name. A hard, load-resistant material used for the manufacture of furniture, doors, flooring.
The color wenge, dark brown with black veins, goes well with all other types of wood and is often used for contrasting designs.
Deep and rich, it is valued for the nobility that it brings to the interior, as well as for the variety of shades. In some of them you can see notes of burgundy or even purple.
Solid dark curtains are best suited for a large living room or bedroom with good lighting.
In less spacious rooms, a color that complements the decor can be present on light curtains in the form of monograms, drawings, patterns, edging, and accessories.
A beautiful window decor that complements the overall color scheme will be double curtains. In this case, the window is framed by plain canvases in combination with tulle, and if you want - without it.
Compositions of 3 canvases on each side of the window look especially elegant. Along the edges - dark monotonous curtains, inside - one of the shades of white. And the middle patterned canvas contains both colors. For you to be sure, take a look at these photos.
Filament curtains will not be allowed to go too far with a dark color. They can be alternated with a white, cream mesh veil, playing on the contrasts of colors and materials.
If the furniture in the room is made of wenge wood, designers recommend choosing other, lighter or darker tones for curtains. Especially if you want to draw all the attention to the furniture.
But the curtains can match the color of the door at the opposite end of the room, which will create a harmony of color. Doors, a narrow wardrobe on a white background look very impressive - for example, as in these photos.
Perhaps you are wondering what to combine with curtains of such an unusual color? Match the curtains to the color of the largest object in the room - a sofa, a table, a piano.
You can act differently, complementing the window decor with other home textiles - bedspreads, pillowcases, chair pads.
Another way is to combine the colors present in the interior in the curtains. For example, brown, with beige ornaments, curtains will echo in color with walls, furniture, and other items.
But the concept of beauty and norms, you see, everyone has their own. Someone will be quite comfortable in a hall or office where dark colors dominate. And to achieve the desired light balance will help bright artificial or natural lighting.
Advice (but not a designer, but a psychologist): if the dark color scheme is not necessarily the cause of depression and depressing thoughts, then monochrome interiors just contribute to this.
Cocoa shade curtains
This pleasant coloring seems to fill the room with the sweet aroma of your favorite drink. Delicate woody shade of brown can be called traditional and trendy at the same time.
It is found in a classic, modern style, perfectly combined with pastels, as well as rich colors. Cocoa-colored curtains look perfect in the interior of the nursery and bedroom.
Harmonizing with walls, furniture, flooring, such curtains will not act as an accent, but rather as a cozy addition.
Plain fabrics look best against the background of the same or ornamented walls. And curtains with a pattern, patterns are more appropriate on a monochrome background.
Whatever color scheme the room is decorated in, cocoa-colored curtains will always be in place. As additions, there will be a carpet, a lampshade, cushions, niches, an accent wall.
There is an opinion that such colors tend to reduce the room. But this can be argued by looking at the photos below.
Cafe-au-lait curtains
And here is another confirmation of the well-known design move - to use a color in the design that is associated with something delicious.
The color of coffee with milk is no less versatile. Coffee shades that are fashionable today are often used in interior design, regardless of the style direction and purpose of the rooms.
This is due to the fact that they go well with all other colors. Warm light brown tones have no "contraindications" in terms of room size.
Interesting fact: experts in color therapy say with confidence that the color of coffee with milk soothes, encourages positive communication.
Brown curtains in the interior of different rooms
When choosing a model, color and style of curtains, designers recommend considering:
- general color scheme;
- illumination level;
- room dimensions.
And, of course, the design style, to which we will return a little later.
Modern interiors are dominated by smart design, that is, a balance of beauty and convenience. So, in some rooms, he may not be too smart - in the living room, bedroom, although there are some nuances here.
Another example - the curtains in the bathroom should not absorb and let moisture through. It would seem that this is obvious, but which of us has never missed the obvious, being in aesthetic delight?
Before you give yourself over to design, arm yourself with a few more practical tips:
- long curtains of dark shades are not the best choice for small, and even more so, poorly lit rooms;
- voluminous compositions with lambrequins, as well as double curtains, require a very strong cornice;
- an interior with an abundance of decor will only be overloaded with a complex, multi-layered window composition;
- To completely darken the room, use blackout curtains.
You will find confirmation of all this in the photo.
And now let's find out how brown curtains will look in the interior of the living room.
Here you can not do without a natural desire to impress. Or at least create the most favorable atmosphere for the family.
Do you already know what will be the main focus of the room? If not, consider elegant curtains that will catch the eye due to unusual design or expensive material.
Curtains can complement the color ensemble, and, if you want, completely merge with the walls, creating a spatial unity.
Ascetic modern interiors are suitable for curtains on grommets that create a large or small drapery. A hard lambrequin to match the color of the curtains will always help to hide a bulky cornice that does not harmonize in color.
In a more classic setting, compositions with soft, draped or openwork lambrequins will look organic.
Combinations of several dense canvases look impressive. Pay attention to how chocolate, coffee shades with white and beige look perfect.
If you are against solid dark curtains, but still really want to add wenge or coffee colors to your window decor, limit yourself to the top and bottom of the canvases. The drawstring, frill or edging, and if necessary, the pickup will contrast against a lighter background.
Another trendy move is striped curtains. They can be draped in such a way that when shifted they become solid.
Vertical stripes are very useful in rooms with low ceilings, because they visually elevate the room. The ceiling cornice gives the same effect.
It is unusual and very popular to hang patterned tulle over thick plain curtains, which serve as an excellent backdrop. And here's what it looks like.
Contemporary window decor that combines beauty and convenience - asymmetric and combined curtains, ideal for living rooms with a balcony door or non-standard proportions.
Roman curtains with tulle tulle, roller blinds and Scandinavian blinds - there are quite a few such combinations. They are often used when only one side of a window needs to be darkened.
If the intended purpose of the hall should be lush, expressive, then other rooms, on the contrary, it is better to fill with peace and tranquility. Therefore, brown curtains in the interior of your bedroom will better perform a secondary, rather than a major role.
Fans of a contrasting interior will like dark canvases that are in harmony with pillows, rugs, and lamps.
The pattern on the curtains can also be duplicated on other textiles, on a section of a wall or furniture. A practical nuance - to create complete darkness at any time of the day, night curtains are useful.
If neither curious neighbors nor the bright sun threaten you, pay attention to compositions from different types of tulle.
A magnetically fixed crossed veil on clips or eyelets can surprise you. Decorating it with fringe or edging, you will fill the room with lightness and romance. Kisei will be no less elegant window frame.
For small rooms or bedrooms in the attic, cascading, Roman or roller blinds are the best option. In addition to the lifting mechanism, they differ from other models in horizontal folds and the absence of a standard cornice.
But most importantly, they tightly close the window opening, leaving no chance for light. Such models are often used in small kitchens, where it is important to have access to the windowsill, and especially in cases where it plays the role of a table.
Brown in the interior of the kitchen is just perfect. It is not easily soiled, perfectly complements bright colors, and also contrasts against the background of more muted tones. It remains only to choose the design and the desired shade.
If you don't like roll-up curtains, consider short tulle. In the form of an arch, semicircular, oblique, it does not eat up space, decorating the window.
Curtains up to the windowsill or cafe curtains will also be good solutions.
As for the colors: light colors with a medium-sized dark pattern, in harmony with furniture, facades, textiles. This is most relevant in small spaces.
The minimum number of dark shades of brown is also recommended in the children's room. Sandy and soft brown are excellent companions for female and male colors.
Therefore, curtains of this color will be appropriate in both the boy's room and the girl's room. In the first case, they can be decorated with pictures, and in the second, you can add a pelmet, ruffles, fringe, muslin, bows, frills and other little things that are pleasant to the female eye.
Coffee colors are often found in the design of bathrooms. They promote relaxation and seem to fill the room with the right scent.
With the standard “dark bottom - light top”, plain chocolate curtains to the floor, you see, will not look good. And it’s a completely different matter if the drawing or frame is dark brown.
Styles
Have you noticed from the photos that brown curtains have no style restrictions? Antique interiors are often decorated in coffee tones, as well as rooms in the style of minimalism and modern.
Some areas are generally hard to imagine without brown - for example, Victorian and Biedermeier.
Light, plain and as simple as possible in cut and material, floor-length curtains are typical for Greek, Italian, French styles, Alpine chalets. They can be found in the design of modern eco, loft, high-tech interiors. It is permissible to use others - Roman and roll models.
Lush velvet, jacquard, corduroy with monograms, fringe, lambrequins, and other decor will perfectly fit into such styles as empire, baroque, retro.
Neoclassical and shabby chic will be emphasized by light patterned tulle or thread curtains. Brown curtains in a cage or in a flower look organically in rooms in Provence or country style.
Eclecticism - a mixture of styles - is one of the fashion trends in interior design. Therefore, combine styles, materials and types of curtains. Perhaps the oxymoron you created will become a new trend.
A color scheme
Brown shades look great with other colors, acting as a background, but can be present in the form of ornaments, images, accessories.
There are also colors with which they are combined most attractively:
- beige;
- white;
- black;
- grey;
- light yellow;
- olive.
As you remember, monochrome interiors are advised to be diluted with two or three colors. Pay attention to white or gray-brown compositions of double curtains, which will be complemented by small furnishings.
Alternating plain and patterned canvases, arranged in an asymmetrical pattern, correspond to another fashion trend.
Light coffee colors look spectacular in combination with all shades of beige, white, gray. Many will like their neighborhood with blue, light orange, pink and bright red.
Combinations with lemon, blue, purple, rich yellow, green will be bold decisions.
On this positive note, we end our review. Now you have no doubt that brown curtains are a versatile decor that suits every interior, right? Add a bit of fantasy to the inspiration received from our article and start transforming your home!
