Undoubtedly, every window requires decoration; ordinary curtains in the bedroom will look banal, so additional elements such as lambrequins have appeared.
They came to us from distant Europe, and have already thoroughly taken root with us. Lambrequins are perfect for the bedroom. They will create an atmosphere of luxury, wealth, and you will feel like you are in a castle.
Today you can see many options for photos of lambrequins for the bedroom; a variety of luxurious interiors are created with their help.
Types of lambrequins
The following main varieties are distinguished:
Hard (bando)
Bandeaus are often sewn from hard types of fabrics. They hold their shape perfectly, do not stretch or deform.

Soft
Such a lambrequin can be a straight strip of fabric or a decorative design of curtains that effectively falls in folds.
Combined
Combines hard and soft drapery, repeated in a certain sequence.

Mounting methods
Fashion changes frequently, including interior design. This does not mean that you need to change your curtains every year, giving up lambrequins and returning to them again. It is enough to monitor general trends in textiles, style, and method of fastening.
The most common types of cornices:
- steel “string”;
- wooden baguette;
- “Japanese cornice” (with parallel grooves) on the remote control;
- thin metal rod for eyelets;
- ceiling cornice (straight, corner, arched);
- classic double cornice for curtains and drapes (with hooks).
Arched openings are attractive in themselves; they are not hidden behind any fabric. They require a special design approach, for example, with sagging on point brackets.
Ceiling structures with LED lighting are very relevant today. With the help of a color-changing diode strip, it is easy to change the atmosphere in the room, choosing the tone according to your mood. They give the effect of a chameleon curtain.
Forms of drapery of soft lambrequins
When properly combined, exquisitely shaped draperies look especially interesting and impressive.
Coquille
An integral part of most lambrequins. It is laid out using vertical folds that connect towards the middle. There is both a classic mold cut and a bias cut.
Swags
Symmetrical or asymmetrical semicircles with soft folds. Depending on the style of the interior, they are sometimes supplemented with various decorative elements.
Jabot (de jabot)
A vertical piece similar to a swag or semi-swag, with freely hanging straight, oblique or stepped edges.
Perekid (semi-swag)
A fabric sheet that is thrown over a rod cornice, causing it to sag and form an elegant drapery.
Tie
Vertical folds of fabric forming a beveled line towards the bottom. This element goes well with swags.
Cascade
A piece of fabric draped along an inclined line. It is located on the side of the entire curtain structure.
Variety of compositions
Window decorations differ in their execution methods and are divided into three main types:
- Hard, or so-called “bando”. The main material here is non-woven fabric, which is perfectly deformable. This allows you to create lambrequins of the most diverse and bizarre shapes. The use of the material with which the furniture is upholstered in their production helps to create a unique, absolutely unique environment. Gilded, painted or carved details will add sedateness to the soft drapery.
- Soft, provides fabric drapery consisting of several elements or a single strip. Considering that the structure remains motionless, it is fixed to an additional cornice.
- Simple - draped with vertical folds or looks like a regular frill. It is attached to the entire length of the cornice using special drawstrings and buttons.
- The swag is made of fabric cut in a special way, draped in semicircular folds. The composition can be either double or transforming into a one-piece element.
- The ruffled de-jabot finish consists of numerous distinct pleats that hang spontaneously. They can be decorated with fringe or tassels.
- The mold has warehouses diverging from the center or converging towards it.
Made from airy fabrics, accessories will add elegance to the design. To avoid unwanted glare, they should not sag too deeply in the center of the window. But, reaching the middle, ruffles with a wave-like shape on the sides will add a certain charm to the whole room.
Combined, harmoniously combines the details of previous styles. The combination of airy fabrics with a rigid base, of various shapes, has a rather impressive look. Such compositions can add mystery and sophisticated romance.
A separate type of curtain is the rollover.
Such a design can be thrown over the cornice one or more times. Its ends are designed in any of the described options. Compared to swags, crossovers have an empty sag into which another one made of a different material is inserted. This design looks great in two-row compositions consisting of different colors. A piece of fabric in delicate soft tones thrown over the cornice rod will make the room unique. See alsoDesign of curtains for the bedroom, photo.

In the room where we spend the night, soft models are appropriate. Their drapery hides extraneous noise; options with a dense base do a good job of shading. Vertical decorations in the form of frills and ties, as well as asymmetrical options, each solve the problem of adjusting the space in their own way.
Photos in various styles
The length, shape, as well as decorations for lambrequins are selected in accordance with the overall style of the bedroom.

Decoration of non-standard windows with lambrequins
The textile ensemble should correctly emphasize the original shape of the unusual window opening.
On a small window
Avoid using overly dark and gloomy colors. It is advisable to give preference to simple-shaped draperies in light colors; they will visually create the illusion of an impressive window opening.
For two windows
To decorate windows that are located nearby, they often choose the same decor that harmoniously combines with each other.
Asymmetrical window
Draperies will competently hide the imperfections of the window and room and place the necessary accents. Properly selected designs will flawlessly merge with the bedroom interior and make it non-trivial, sophisticated and unique.
Bay window
The choice of decor for bay windows depends on the overall interior of the room. Lambrequins will be a win-win option for a bedroom that has enough space. The density of the fabric depends on the amount of incoming light.

Peculiarities
When choosing a lambrequin, you need to have excellent, impeccable taste, because you will have to take into account the combination of texture, color and composition.
The lambrequin in the bedroom should be in harmony with the interior and emphasize the main idea of the room. At the same time, it serves to fulfill an accent task, and if executed correctly, it is also functional - it creates additional shading from the sun and night light from lanterns.
A characteristic feature is that it cannot be moved apart, raised or lowered. It can be permanently attached, but it is better to give preference to more practical removable models.
Combinations with curtains
Allows you to correctly mix different options for curtain ensembles on one window.
curtain
For medium-density curtains, soft draperies made of the same fabric are suitable. Expressive folds, combined with tiebacks on the curtains, will create an interesting and delicate composition and will become a truly worthy window frame.
Curtains (tulle, etc.)
The combination of fabrics that have the same color, but with different textures, looks especially elegant. Smooth, flowing fabrics combine very elegantly with soft lambrequins.

How to choose fabric
Watch from 1 minute 30 seconds
The lambrequin in the bedroom should be combined with the main type of fabric on the windows. The sleeping room will be well shaded. Therefore, thick curtains are hung in it to prevent light from passing through. The material can also be opaque and heavy.
Thick silk, satin, velvet, tapestry and brocade as a window frame will make your bedroom look like luxurious royal chambers or Scheherazade's palace.
However, the fashion trend of playing with contrast also applies to this bedroom accessory. If you put thin flowing tulle, chiffon, tulle or draped organza on top of thick curtains, you will get an emphatically delicate, elegant and airy interior.
Soft folds from a veil look very cute, especially if its color is made in a fashionable smooth transition of color - amber. A lambrequin made of transparent white or delicate pastel organza colors looks aristocratic and at the same time light.
Children's bedroom design
For a girl's bedroom, simpler but sophisticated products with ruffles, puffs, ruffles, lace or braid are suitable. Multilayer compositions, both translucent and denser fabrics, would be appropriate. For a boy's room, plain, bright or multi-colored solid lambrequins with appliqués of superheroes or favorite hobbies are often used.
