Best Abode How To Brand Your Curtains Longer

Thank yous thus much for your generous comments on the dining room reveal! We are actually enjoying this room. Since I changed it, we've been having all our dinners there, thus far nosotros had operate it to a greater extent than than nosotros did all in conclusion year, it's similar beingness inwards a dissimilar home!

One of the novel things for this room were the curtains, I bought ii sets of Ikea - Merete Curtains $24.99/pair.

Even though they are 98" long, they were all the same small past times 3"! I didn't similar that :( They had to hold upwards fixed.

This post is well-nigh how to brand your curtains longer when they are a flake also short for your windows. Remember, my sewing skills are pretty lame, if a truthful seamstress sees my piece of job he or she is going to cringe large time, simply hey, it industrial plant for me too I intend nobody is going to come upwards too cheque upwards unopen how this looks.

So, inwards illustration yous require to practise the same, too don't choose the drapery police trace around, this is what yous choose to do:

Calculate how much stuff yous require also add together past times first hanging the curtains. Then, mensurate from the really halt of the curtains all the means to the floor, too that volition hold upwards your number.

This side past times side movie shows how the extra slice of cloth is going to hold upwards attached at the in conclusion ½" of the curtain, that volition convey the full panel ½" upwards from the flooring which is adept anyways, yous don't desire your curtains touching the floor.

Find the cloth yous desire to use, the width should hold upwards the same every bit the ane inwards your curtains addition 1"(for seams).

For it's summit I doubled my mensuration 3½" x 2 = 7" and added 1"(seams) for a full of 8".

Here is why. Each strip of cloth gets folded ½" on each side

Then the whole strip of cloth gets folded lengthwise.

The drapery panel is too thus placed, aligned alongside the ½" seam, placing it inwards the middle of the strip of cloth (sandwiching it).

Pin it inwards identify too run upwards it. Close both ends too.

The front end too dorsum are going to await finished. Do yous come across those lines? They are far from straight, simply well, you're the entirely ane who knows!
