When do we think about changing curtains? Often only after repair. As a rule, after finishing the renovation in the apartment, we try to decorate our renovated dwelling in every possible way. The easiest way to do this is with the help of curtains. Currently, on sale you can find a huge selection of all kinds of curtains. Depending on the source material, their quality and cost varies. Curtains, consisting of beads, are prohibitively expensive, but this is no reason to deny yourself the pleasure of becoming the owner of such beauty. You just need to make curtains yourself with beads! And we will try to tell you about what is required for this, and about the sequence in which it is necessary to act.
Materials
To make curtains with our own hands of beads, we will need a very large number of these beads! You can choose the same or different, matte or shiny, smooth or faceted, the correct streamlined shape, chopped or curly beads. When buying a material, much depends on the room for which we will make the curtain, the color scheme of the interior and the size of the future curtains. We will also need a strong fishing line or a nylon thread. If the hole at the beads is large enough, and the curtain is supposed to be made in a romantic style, then instead of the line you can take a silk ribbon or ribbon from organza. Such curtains will look great in the room, giving it sunlight in the daytime and moonlight reflections at night. You also need rake and scissors.
Choosing a Curtain
To the future masterpiece served as a decoration, you need to carefully consider the design of curtains. For the living room or bedroom, kitchen or hallway it is necessary to sustain your style, corresponding to this room. So, if a romantic curtain with hearts in pastel shades is appropriate in a bedroom or a nursery, then a landscape (or simply a more neutral drawing and color scale) will look good in the hallway or in the kitchen. If you are thinking about how to make curtains with your own hands from beads, you are planning to create a masterpiece, you can try not just to string beads on a fishing line, but to lay out a certain pattern. This is much more time consuming, however, the result will be stunning!
Sequencing
Curtains with their own hands of beads - this is a real work of art, requiring patience and hard work. So, we proceed. We choose a strong rail, which will serve as the basis for fastening the curtains. It is necessary to drill as many holes in it as there are threads planned (and always determine at what distance they will be from each other). Measure out the required length of the curtain and cut off the line or nylon thread of the desired size. Thread it into the hole in the rack and secure it with a very strong knot. And then start to string beads. They can be strung tightly, or you can - with different distances between the elements. If you still decided to draw on the curtain, it is recommended to prepare a scheme (as in the case of embroidery with beads) and string beads in full accordance with the plan.
