How to Hang Curtains Like a Professional

Question: How do I hang curtains like a professional?







Answer: Curtains should be 2 1/2 to 3 times the width of the window. So, if you're doing two panels, each should be 1/4 to 1 1/2 times the window width. Buy a rod that's 20 inches wider than the window so it extends 10 inches on either side. The window will appear wider than it really is. Mount curtains as high as possible to give the room more height, and let them break 1 1/2 inches on the floor.
