Features and types of curtains for the windows of our apartments

• Sliding curtains - perhaps the most common type of curtains, consisting of two strips of fabric suspended from the cornice with special clothespins,or in another way. Such curtains freely move horizontally along the cornice. Usually, along with the curtains, the curtain is hung from a light transparent fabric( veil, tulle, organza) so that during the day when the curtains are open, the window is not "empty", and at the same time, you will all be clearly visible from the window, and nothingwill prevent the penetration of sunlight into the room. This type of curtains is found in almost every home, their models differ only in the chosen color and material, so if you want individuality, then we do not recommend using this kind of curtains.
