When choosing the final colour and material to be used I had to seriously consider the transparency of the material. With this in mind I enquired with the representative of the company with my final choices and confirmed the appropriate way in which to have my design printed.
I went for the image to be 70% grey on silk chiffon, the material was very close to the density of visibility of that from a typical voile curtain, and due to natural light bleaching the print I couldn't have the print any more lighter than 70% or the image would be practically invisible to the eye when hung up
So...
Whilst my piece is being printed I have now a couple of days to create a frame to suspend the curtains. This frame will be needed to hold the piece without having to alter its surroundings i.e. drill holes for the washing line and etc.
I originally had a look at what was in the market and even had to return something I thought would be ideal for the curtain.
So I am know going see if I should make a custom make a frame at a metal workshop. And figure the deciding factors for the display of the piece.
