Why is it always unsatisfactory to hang carefully selected curtains?
Dirty color | Size error | Shrinkage after washing | Insufficient shading ...
These lessons worth tens of thousands could have been avoided! By visiting 20+ curtain factories and senior upholsterers, we have extracted 6 purchase rules that subvert cognition. From fabric code to track mystery, take you to disassemble every detail with forensic thinking to ensure that when you walk out of the store, the shopping guide will give you a thumbs up!
Bedroom: use polyester or flannel+shading interlining (shading rate > 95%),
Avoid velvet curtain: phantom yarn or diamond yarn (light is opaque), and don't choose velvet (easy to hook).
1. Material selection: different fabrics are used in different spaces：
Living room: choose cotton and linen or high-precision cloth (light transmittance of 30%-50%), which is naturally breathable and graded.
2. Fold multiple: Don't be fooled by merchants：
Width < 4m: 1.8 folds are enough, and 2 folds are selected for width > 4m.
Avoid pits: merchants often push folds 2.5 times, which actually wastes cloth and is bloated.
Track: aluminum alloy still track (2-3 euro/m), Roman pole is easy to leak light and has poor bearing capacity.
Strap: Use free basic model, and refuse tassel/bead chain (premium 300%).
High temperature setting: 2 times more processing fee, natural sagging is more practical.
3. Accessories save money skills：
4. Dimensions and installation details：
Height from the ground: 1-2 cm is the best, it is difficult to clean the floor, and it is too high like "cropped pants".
Bay window: the rest of the cloth can be used by merchants as straps or pillows to avoid waste.
Curtain box: reserved in advance, more beautiful than Roman pole.
Solid color > color matching: color matching is easy to overturn, and solid color (off-white, light gray) is versatile and advanced.
Pit avoidance: curtains with chemical coating (such as shade coating) are not environmentally friendly, and harmful substances will volatilize when exposed to the sun.
5. Color and collocation：
