How Do You Install Window Drapes?

If you are considering adding drapes to your home, here is a step-by-step guide on how to install them.

  1. First you must measure your window and find the exact size.
  2. Place your curtain rod over the top of the window and make sure it is centered.
  3. Then, measure down from the rod to the floor to get your length measurement as well as up to where you want your drapes to hang from your rod (this will be where they attach). Use a piece of string or tape measure to mark this measurement and then cut a piece of fabric equal in length (we recommend using a width that is at least four times longer than the width of your curtain rod).
  1. Measure both sides and make sure they are equal in length, if they are not adjust accordingly until they are even on both sides of each other.
  2. If you are using a pinch pleat, you will use the seam to fold down the top of your fabric that is in an “inside out” position (meaning it is folded over itself and not facing the same direction as it usually would). Then, fold each side over again and sew both sides together to make sure they stay secure.
  3. Attach Velcro or buttons on each side for the closure of your drape.
  4. Hang them up proudly.

Should Window Drapes Touch The Floor?

Yes. Window drapes should touch the floor. However, when choosing window treatments, whether drapes, blinds, or shades, it’s critical to consider every aspect of style and function in order to select the best option for your windows and your home.

In many cases, the best option is to have the window treatment touch the floor. By doing this, you can create a sleek, professional look for your room, as well as ensure that your windows are protected from any obstructions or distractions.

That being said, there are times when window treatments should not touch the floor. This is especially true if you have a lot of foot traffic through your home. If this is the case, then you may want to keep your window treatments at least an inch above the floor in order to avoid any unnecessary wear and tear on your window dressings.
