Measure for Curtains

   1  Prepair some tools: one pen or pencil, one paper,and a metal measing tape.

   2   WIDTH:

      A: If your rod is already installed, record the rod length as the width.

      B: If your rod is not in place, you need to measure the window from outside trim to trim. For beautiful and cover completely, we suggest add 8-16 inches to the width. For example: if your window width is 100 inches, provide a width measurement of 108- 116 inches. 

TIPS:

      Add elegance to window treatments with two times fullness gathered curtains. Double fullness is the term for curtains that uses two times the amount of fabric to cover the width of the window. The fabric yardage requirements are calculated using the same formulas for fabrics of all widths. 

      You can make sheer curtains to go on another curtain rod behind the gathered curtain to help protect from sun damage to the curtains fabrics and your privacy.

      Different from other websites: Please record the width of the area you want to cover, we use DOUBLE width fabric in your width.      

      LENGTH:

      A: If your rod is already in place, rod’s below to the floor is your curtain’s length.

      B: If your rod is not in place, please measure the point you intend to mount the rod to the floor. Usually the point is above the window trim 4-8 inches or more.
