• Decor: it adds lightness and grace to the interior, bringing a calm mood;

• Functionality: it helps to control the heat and humidity in the room, protecting from direct sun rays, helping to save the warm in cold weather.

• Interior style is one of the first things you should be thoughtful about when you are looking for a sheer curtain. For a classic interior with no overload of drawings, images, sheer curtains with ornaments could be a great option. But if you want to keep the ambience of minimalism, you can pick a simple sheer curtain that could complete your style. In general, no matter which your design is, don't be afraid to try something new. Do not forget that the sheer curtain does not necessarily have to be white - you can choose it in any shade or choose it with colored elements that will echo with the main colors of the room.

• The size of the windows is often unique, so you need to make all the necessary measurements in advance. It will help avoid problems with the length of the tulle or its width.

• Material and texture are important factors for choosing cheer curtains.Materials can be contrasting: cotton has a natural and pure look, silk gives luxury, and synthetic materials are more durable and easy to care for. The texture can change the mood of the entire house: pick a simple and unobtrusive smooth sheer curtain, or you can add a delicacy and pick, for example, embroidered sheer curtains, that will attract everyone's attention.

How to take care of the tulle?
Of course, each fabric has individual features in care, which are usually indicated by the manufacturer. But we have some general tips to help it stay fresh and nice.

• Regular cleaning: Regularly carry away the dust from the sheer curtain using a soft brush or vacuum cleaner with an upholstery attachment. This will keep it clean and fresh.
• Washing: Be sure to read the instructions before you wash it. Use a gentle setting and cold water to avoid damaging the fabric. It is often recommended to wash the sheer curtain in special laundry bags to prevent tangling or damage.
• Drying: after washing, the sheer curtain should be carefully laid out on a drying surface. Avoid twisting or drying in direct sunlight to avoid distortion or color fading. If the sheer curtain does not wrinkle much, you can hang it on special hangers for drying.
• Ironing: If the sheer curtain is wrinkled during washing or drying, you can gently iron it. Place the sheer curtain on an ironing board and use the iron on a low temperature. If it is made of synthetic material, use the synthetic fabric mode. To avoid fabric damage, iron through thin fabric or use a steam iron.
• Stain removers: If stains appear on the sheer curtain, treat them immediately, following the manufacturer's recommendations for using stain removers. Don't forget to test it on a small piece of fabric to make sure it is safe.
