How to decorate a kitchen in Provence style?
The kitchen is a special room where the whole family gathers around the dining table, and therefore you want to make the kitchen as cozy as possible. An affordable solution is to decorate the kitchen in Provence style. Provence curtains for the kitchen are a modern and stylish solution.
What can be used to create a kitchen interior in the chosen style? The main element of decor is curtains. Provence style involves the use of light, simple and at the same time elegant fabrics. It should give the impression that the curtains are swaying in a light breeze. You should not use massive or voluminous decorative elements or anything that weighs down the image of the structure. You should choose fabrics that transmit sunlight well. Another technique is fabrics that diffuse the sun's rays or muffle them, for example, transparent flowing tulle. The curtains are decorated with stylized “rustic” trim and trimmed with lace. You can use beautiful fringe or embroidery.
Provence kitchen curtains go perfectly with Roman blinds or roller blinds.
If the apartment faces south, then it is practical to additionally use Roman blinds or roller blinds made of thick material to protect from sunlight. In this case, the blinds are fixed to the frame. In this case, you should choose plain blinds in pastel colors.
Provence curtains in the kitchen interior will not be bulky. In modern apartments, kitchens are often very small. Bulky curtains or heavy drapes are not suitable for such rooms. Designers recommend using cafe curtains in this case. Cafe style curtains are two lightweight curtains hung at the bottom of the window. Cafe curtains create a classic rustic look, do not visually overload the space, protect the kitchen from prying eyes and ultraviolet rays, and create a surprisingly cozy atmosphere.
Curtains for the kitchen in Provence style are a fashionable solution. A real find for the interior is the design of curtains in the shape of an hourglass. The curtain fabric is fixed to the frame and hangs down freely. The hourglass shape is achieved by tying the curtain in the middle with a beautiful bow or tie. If the window sashes are narrowed, then the “hourglass” is an excellent design solution for such windows. Curtains in the form of a fishing net look original. The mesh is hung on hooks without a cornice.
The curtains draping the doorways give a unique flavor to the interior. Door curtains should match the style of window curtains and upholstery.
Provence style involves the use of curtains for draping furniture. For example, you can drape curtains over glass cupboard doors, niches, and shelving. Curtains will hide the contents of chests of drawers and shelves from prying eyes and create a warm home interior in the same style.
