For lovers of exquisite exclusiveness, purple curtains are an excellent choice. This is a fusion of the beautiful calm of blue with red passion.
In medieval Europe, purple was not only the most expensive color, but it could only be worn by monarchs.
Only when they were seen off on their final journey did the courtiers put on purple robes as a sign of respect. Later the color was allowed to be worn by high clergy.
Purple colors, full of mysteries, are very rare in nature.
These are flowers: fragrant hyacinths, delicate irises, beautiful crocuses, fuchsia and lilac bushes. Among the gems there are many more (amethyst, alexandrite and charoite), there are rare sapphires and unusual shades of topaz.
Even the female name Violetta means “violet”; there is also Rose (pink).
People often argue about the mystical properties of color, its sensuality and unique beauty. Psychologists say that the purple tone:
- can increase the self-esteem of home owners;
- helps develop intuition;
- activates creativity;
- has a beneficial effect on a person;
- has a calming, bewitching effect.

Green
For residential premises, the main green and purple is not used. Often mint, pistachio, and olive are used instead. Instead of juicy purple, they try to use eggplant or even lilac. This is how tulle and night curtains are combined. For a bedroom or nursery, the ideal combination is blackberry and herbal.

Beige
The combination of beige and soft plum will be very useful for framing a window in a girl’s bedroom or children’s room. Designers also recommend using a tandem of such tones on the windows of the living room, hall or hall.
On a note! Designers do not recommend combining purple with orange, yellow, brown, and black. Such motives will seriously put pressure on the psyche. Accordingly, the room will not become cozy.

Monochrome curtains of any purple colors will suit minimalism.
Neoclassicism - thick curtains made of velvet and other fabrics.
French style - curtains with patterns of delicate colors.
High-tech - just dark, plain curtains without color restrictions.
The design of purple curtains should look good against the general background of the room. Practical advice from professionals will help you bring the sensual nobility and elegance of purple tones into your home.
We recommend ready-made solutions in the photo of purple curtains.
Combinations with other colors
Despite the fact that lilac is considered one of the most interesting colors for decorating a room, designers do not recommend including it in large quantities. After looking at the photo of lilac curtains, you can independently create an ensemble with other shades.
The palette looks good with gray, white, black, yellow, pink. The saturation of the main tone and companion color depends on the general mood. For example, for the bedroom you can choose discreet pastel colors. While in the child's room you need to create a bright atmosphere.
In addition to curtains, a rich shade can be present in lighting fixtures, souvenirs, pillows or bedspreads. It is desirable that all items be kept in the same tone.
You should not hang lilac curtains in a room where there is scarlet, brick, terracotta, or marsh. Such a duet will create disharmony and the room will become uncomfortable.

Lilac curtains for the dining room and kitchen
In the cooking and eating area, calm, cold tones are preferable. Lilac curtains look good in the kitchen in an ensemble with white. If we talk about the style, this is:
- strict Roman curtains of any shade against the background of dazzling white windows;
- long muslin curtains in combination with light walls;
- cafe curtains, repeating the color of the print on the facades of furniture or other decorative elements;
- light veil with a diagonal tie.
Such options are usually used when choosing accessories for the kitchen with a calm palette.
Noble solution in chocolate and lilac tones
The color of chocolate in all combinations sets off bright tones and helps make the interior more austere and noble at the same time. We can use this duet in any style, although it is most often used in classic or eco-design. In addition to the dark brown finish of the set, the combination of lilac with a natural shade of dark wood is widely in demand. It is from it that an apron, countertop, dining table, part of the facades or their frames can be made.
Imitation stone in this color is also used. Both the countertop and sink, as well as the stonework on the border between the dining and work areas, look interesting. You can also imitate masonry in the work area on the apron. Wallpaper with a photo of a suitable subject will help to emphasize the style. The dining table can also be stone. And if the kitchen area allows, then the curtains can be chocolate color.
If you choose wooden finishing for the interior , the lower part of the walls can be covered with panels of the selected color. Then the design of the headset should be plain lilac. This shade is used in the details of the rest of the interior: curtains, napkins, tablecloths, and decorative dishes on open shelves will be purple. It is optimal to choose cream or beige tones as a background.
Furniture
Furniture is also very important for the perception of the interior. At a minimum, any bedroom has a bed, a chest of drawers and a wardrobe. You can complement this set with a cabinet, ottoman, dressing table and chests - depending on your needs and the capabilities of your space. The furniture can be lilac, as can the decoration, but you can choose other colors.
Large pieces of furniture should not be too bright, otherwise they will draw attention to themselves. If you want to highlight a small shelf or cabinet, on the contrary, it can be successfully made contrasting
Pink, purple, white, gray or cream furniture will suit the lilac finish, and the colors of natural wood always look good.
In modern interiors, furniture made of plastic is often chosen - glossy surfaces look great - they reflect light and expand the space. For the same reason, exterior mirrors should be used in a small bedroom.
Consider the size of the room when choosing furniture. If you have a small area, consider a corner wardrobe that goes up to the ceiling - this will save space. The large bedroom can accommodate a large walk-in closet. Place the rest of the furniture on the walls and in the corners - this way you will have a comfortable and spacious space in the center.
Green apron
Not only can you choose a kitchen set in green, but you can also use it to decorate the apron. This will be a great accent, especially if you use other accessories of the same tone in addition.
The materials chosen are ceramic tiles, mosaics or glass. Tiles come in a wide variety of colors and sizes. At the same time, very large ones are unlikely to be appropriate.
Photo printing with images is often used on glass splashbacks. Therefore, in this case, you can show your imagination and choose different foliage, grass, fruits, flowers on a green background, a ladybug, etc.
Advice! A green apron can be made together with a green set. In this case, it is unacceptable to use one tone. In this case, glass with photo printing is perfect.
Wall and ceiling decoration
To decorate the walls in the bedroom, you can use lilac wallpaper. The choice of shade depends on the goals you want to achieve with this design. If you set out to highlight a certain area, decorate it with a rich shade of lilac. For other walls or ceilings, choose a lighter shade.
The ceiling looks beautiful in both lilac and white colors. Stretch ceilings with a glossy surface are one of the best solutions.

An illuminated ceiling will create an atmosphere of lightness and romance.
With this design, the bedroom looks luxurious, modern and stylish.
If you decide to put up photo wallpaper to decorate one of the walls of the room, choosing an image to match the overall palette of the interior will not be easy.
Advice. Choose the theme of the image, focusing on the style of the bedroom: an image that is suitable for a bedroom in a modern style is unlikely to be appropriate for a room in the art nouveau, Japanese, or high-tech styles, and vice versa.
A win-win option is a black and white image (one example is in the photo below), you can also recommend a light floral bouquet, a sandy beach, dew drops on the grass, a waterfall as a theme.

Green chairs and table
A choice of green chairs and a table can also be an excellent accent in the interior. Of course, you shouldn’t do absolutely everything in the same tone.
To avoid oversaturation with one color, you can combine chairs with an apron and choose them in the same design. It will look very cozy.
If the choice fell on a green kitchen set, then you can choose a glass table, and choose chairs in the same tone.
Choosing a lilac shade depending on the lighting
If the bedroom windows face south and there is enough light in the room, it is appropriate to use a rich lilac shade. The cool tone of lilac will make the atmosphere in the room cool, fresh and light.

Materials
One of the main criteria for choosing curtains for the living room is their material. This is what professional designers use as a starting point when decorating curtains with curtain decor.
Blackout prevents the penetration of sunlight and protects against ultraviolet radiation. The fabric will fit into any interior style.
There are also a range of tulle fabrics to consider. After all, tulle material is the initiator of the entire process of creating the interior of a room.
In the manufacture of tulle the following are used:
- veil is a dense, natural fabric that lends itself well to draping;
- organza - can be plain and multi-colored, with or without a pattern, matte and shiny;
- muslin is a light transparent fabric that is popular in modern interiors.
When choosing tulle for curtains, it is necessary to take into account the density and texture of the fabric, the presence of patterns and designs.
Curtain decoration options
Various accessories are used to decorate curtains.
Holders
These elements support the curtains, which allows you to change the lighting of the room. Thanks to their use, you don’t have to close the curtains; just unfasten the holder.
Tiebacks
Tiebacks are decorative elements that support the folds of curtains. It is advisable to use them where there is no need to frequently change the position of the curtains.
Tassels and fringe
Tassels and fringes are used to decorate curtains. These parts are finished with beads, glass beads, etc. They are appropriate in classic and oriental styles, as well as boho and country.
Bedroom furniture with lilac interior
Lilac wallpaper harmonizes well with furniture, for the upholstery of which shades of beige or white are chosen. White furniture looks especially elegant in the rest room. Lilac pillows and curtains will complement the picture. This is a classic design option that makes the room cozy.
Light lilac furniture looks unusual and evokes positive emotions.
If rich colors are used in the decoration of the walls, the furniture should have light upholstery, and vice versa - furniture in a rich lilac shade looks good against a light background.
It is better to choose decorative elements in pink, blue or lemon colors.
Textiles and accessories
What curtains to choose for a lilac bedroom? When choosing curtains and drapes, it is recommended to give preference to light shades of lilac. Complete them with sheer tulle curtains. This window design looks modern and stylish.
If the bedroom has good lighting, and the walls and ceiling are made in light colors, you can choose curtains a little darker.
Monochrome accessories look beautiful in a bedroom with a lilac interior: for example, brown. A carpet and pillows of this shade will complement the overall picture.

Types of curtains
It is necessary to decide on the type of curtains after the main interior style has been chosen. Each style has its own type of curtains. Main types of curtains:
- Classic curtains to the floor. They necessarily consist of two dense fabrics; tulle must be selected for them. This is an option that everyone is familiar with. They look strict and calm, but in combination with a lambrequin they create a feeling of luxury in the bedroom. The fabrics from which they are made are most often dense, but there are also lightweight options that allow sunlight to pass through well.
- Short curtains. Such curtains in the bedroom usually reach the window sill or go down a little lower. They are made from light, thin fabrics and do not interfere with the supply of warm air coming from the radiators to the bedroom. Fits perfectly into classic, country or shabby chic style.
- Roman. This type can be of very different styles and with any decor. Options for their fastening are a window frame or an opening. They are easy to use. Under Roman blinds in the bedroom, you can choose both tulle and classic curtains.
- Rolled ones in the bedroom are also attached to the window frame or opening. They are lifted by screwing them onto the shaft. Roller blinds can be difficult to clean. In some cases, only dry cleaning is possible.
- With lambrequin. More often used in classic or country style. Lambrequin always gives the room additional luxury. Its options are very diverse - from the simplest to decorated in all possible ways. The choice depends only on individual preferences and the style of the room.
- Curtains with tulle are a convenient option for bedrooms where you want to control the lighting. The curtains themselves will protect the room from the sun's rays, and the tulle will diffuse them.
- Double. Such curtains in the bedroom are made from the same type of fabric, but with different colors. The combination can be light, with the addition of a print on one part, or bold and sharp - in a bright, contrasting design. They can be sewn either as a single fabric or divided into two sides.
- Curtains on one side are suitable for a bedroom with a balcony or for those who are happy owners of pets and want to constantly use the window sill as a resting place. In this case, a solid wide canvas is secured on one side using special ties.
- Blinds are suitable for small bedrooms that require additional shelves, which are used as window sills.
- With 3D printing. One of the most trendy types of curtains. They should fit perfectly with the bedspread. Recommended only for rooms without clutter.
- Thread curtains can be either with or without decoration, combined with curtains or acting independently. Suitable for zoning space.
- French curtains with waves will complement chic, luxurious, most often classic interiors. Can be supplemented with curtains.
