Curtains are the most popular and common window treatment used in homes, especially bedrooms. They come in several different styles, colors, and patterns that offer many options as well as function. Typically, curtains are made of lighter weight fabric and sold in packages containing two panels. They are made to hang from a curtain rod or curtain rings attached to a rod, which is installed just above the window frame. There are many different types and ways to hang and drape curtains; usually they’re hung on a rod through a rod pocket using rings or pleated.
Since curtains often come in many different lengths--to fit basic window measurements--their are several ways to hang up curtains as well as tie-back the panels; some methods include puddling the curtain panel on the floor, basic right or left tie-back, and cascading.
