Light-proof fabrics will also protect from the sun's rays, keeping the room cool on hot days.

For the living room
Any curtains that completely cover the window opening, right down to the floor, are perfect for the living room. Attic windows are considered an exception; for them, roller dormer curtains should be selected, since the dormer window is usually inclined.
If you have ordinary windows, then classic curtains are ideal, especially if you choose light chiffon fabric as tulle. But you can also choose roller blinds or fabric blinds, especially if the room does not have impressive dimensions and every centimeter of the room counts.
For kitchen
Long products for the floor are not suitable; it is better to choose short ones that reach the windowsill - the short version will not interfere with your cooking. You can choose classic thick curtains and complement them with thin, short tulle or organza. Instead of organza or tulle, you can choose a Roman blind.
For the bedroom
Both classic curtains and Roman blinds or roller blinds are suitable for the bedroom. If you want to give your bedroom airiness and lightness, then choose a classic or modern option, the main thing is that the material is natural, for example, cotton, linen or chintz.
Roman blinds also look elegant and cozy, but at the same time take up little space. If you like to sleep, then choose blackout curtains.
A log house is a wonderful option for a country house. It’s nice to relax in such a house, it’s even easier to breathe in it. The main thing when decorating the interior of such a home is not to overload the decor; this also applies to curtains.

Why should you choose them?
You can see a huge number of window curtains on sale, but not all of them are as functional as wooden models. In addition, some of them may require serious and complex care, and over time they may lose their original appearance.
This cannot happen with wooden curtains, because the base uses a solid material that can only be wiped with a damp cloth. In addition, all models are coated with varnish, which protects the wood from exposure to direct ultraviolet rays, moisture and sudden changes in temperature.
In addition, to install them it is not necessary to use additional tools and have some skills. Very often, people purchase lightweight versions of curtains, for installation of which it is enough to place a hook at the top of the door or window opening. This makes it very easy to install and remove the structure.

Today, such curtains are used not only for their intended purpose, but also as a decorative element. They can be found not only in the interior of a residential building, but also in specialized, stylistic stores and organizations specializing in yoga and spiritual practices.
